Winning Ugly is ranked right along with Rock And A Hard Place as possibly one of their worst songs ever for me. The synth sounds, probably Ronnie's noodle bass and the vocals are beyond trite.
It's the antithesis of The Rolling Stones.

The lowest of all Stones records. Emotional Rescue had some crappy tracks, but Dirty Work blew it away. It was the first time I ever thought: the Stones need to retire.

>Key To The Highway
A Cool piano outro, but nothing very important to the album really.
Actually, its VERY important to the album. You're aware why its on there in the first place?

Anyway I think looking back on it the album it was as good as anything on the market...The punk thing was still big at the time but fading away....

answer to Gazza about Key to the highway
YES I know its important, but i was talking about the material on the record,, not the meaning of em..
----------
Seems like noone really likes this one.. Well compared to their other albums, yes its not that good.. But i dont understand why everyone is against it.. There are many nice songs on this one, though it as a stones record may suck

Gazza---Sorry, I should have said that by 1986 punk was dead.. The release of Undercover and Dirty Works REMINDED me of Punk style..
I liked a lot of punk music back then (1979--1984) but was not really into these albums by the Stones..
I did think that they copied a lot from the punk style of music for these 2 albums.
