I think that this is the album in which music, no just R&R, gains the highest points in their legacy.

You'd be surprised at how many people, myself included, name GHS as their first introduction to the band.

This angle isn't discussed much, but there was a nice "sub genre" in the Stones for a few years of Jagger/Taylor collaborations. Winter is one, along with Moonlight Mile and Til The Next Goodbye. I don't necessarily mean songwriting per se, but the two of them were definitely the main band members crafting these songs in the studio, with some interesting results. Time Waits For No One is another one.

This is true. Do you notice the ones you mention have a kind of dreamy melancholy? I really love that. Interesting that's where they tended to go in collaborations. (Except for Ventilator Blues).
The fact that Jagger loved "banging off" Taylor's playing is perhaps no more evident than in Hide Your Love on GHS. It's a great track, kind of call and response between them, really easy and joyous and -- I always think of Taylor surfing with the guitar, riding high on a great wave and then plunging down to to Jagger's refrain. And Jagger's groovin on it, "Alright boy! Yeah! C'mon!"

Great point about Hide Your Love.

I would say Keith is very prominent on Till The Next Goodbye. He is playing the slide + one of the acoustic guitars. Taylor's tex/mex-riffs on the choruses are very nice, though.
Having a good time in Oslo, btw, Tele?

Find or download Captain Acid's "How Do You Hide Your Love?" 2CD set of Goat's Head era alternate mixes, versions, and outtakes. Most of the versions there blow away the final products.

My band wouldn't be called The Powergoats were it not for this album.

Guys, stop taking the piss. Are you guys mis-reading? All I meant was the "Goats" part of "Powergoats" (my band's name) is in reference to the LP "Goats Head Soup" as a tribute.
