That's a bold statement.

Energy has a bitchin' harp solo...there I said something nice about that thing...

I LOVE THE RECORD,PLAY IT ALL THE TIME..
WARRING PEOPLE & UNBELIEVABLE ARE ME TOPS.

It's a very good album. I enjoy it still.

Love the album but funnily enough I think of that as one of the weaker cuts.

WOW superheavy cd is very good,i am glad jagger does solo stuff we get more music wandering sprit and goddess to the door are very good too.

Revvy, it's good to hear your more or less (as in this case) sane words again

It's an enjoyable album.
Played it quite a lot this summer.

I love it as well, but I'm into a Reggae phase these days. It certainly has gotten more play than anything by the Stones over the last couple of years.

Energy is a good track.

I am pleasantly surprised (and perhaps I shouldn't have been) that a bunch of folks on this board do have good taste. I enjoy just about everything that the Stones record. Superheavy surprised me by how much I enjoyed it as I listen to no other music in this genre - although I cannot define precisely what this genre is. My favorites are: One Day One Night, I Can't Take It No More, Warring People, Common Ground, and Hey Captain. It's all good highly enjoyable and if we had only heard about this recording, and it hadn't been released we'd all be going through hoops to get our hands on it and then singing its praises after hearing it. I bet there are quite few iorr posters who have never heard it. I think that among the reasons that this appeals to me is that someone like Mick Jagger surely dos not do projects like this to add to his bank account. Stuff like this exists purely as an outlet for Jagger's creativity. The album is just terrific.

Yes. He's been ridiculed for his career outside of the stones, but he keeps on doing it. I guess he knows now he will never sell a lot of albums or receives positive reviews (besides Rolling Stone Magazine), he just wants his songs to be heard.
And he keeps doing it, while another stones member keeps on ridiculing him but does absolutely nothing himself. The one thing he came up with - and that's even for the stones - was an outtake of Talk is Cheap...finalised by Mick.
No, Mick deserves some respect for his 'solo' stuff. And even when it's bad, it's still interesting.
I just adore the guy.

Never heard anything off this album.

I usually approach Jagger solo work with caution, and I like some songs from Superheavy, but from what I hear/read, even amongst the Superheavy fans "I can't take it no more" isn't very much appreciated; in terms of reviews, the most "flattering" comment I've found about this song is "a horrendous Starship-style corp rocker" (from warr.org)

I, too, think "Energy" is better, when one's in the mood for a danceable rocker

To me, this sounds like second rate INXS. And Mick is the weakest link.





THIS, however, is excellent. It's not about slagging Mick. It's about giving credit where credit's due:

As I hate Josh Stone and loathe just about anything Jagger and Dave Stewart have done together: I have never listened to this album, not will I ever.

I listened to the whole record twice the day I received it, since than I even don't remember were I have kept it and I can't remember any of the songs.

I have no intention of listening to it as I'm strictly Stones or Mick solo.

Come on, Mathijs, Blind Leading The Blind (esp. the acoustic version)
is fantastic.

Jeroen (aka corriecas), as a huge fan of superheavy, what is your opinion?

With that horrible, totally over the top American panting vocal style of Jagger?

No thanks.
