You are one of IORR's great member too DandelionPowderman. I sincerley appreciate the positives you and members like Rolling Hansie post here. Cheers!!
Some Girls was like that as well.
Voodoo Residue is just over a couple hours worth and is available on YouTube. It is also available as a 2-CD package.
Voodoo Brew and Voodoo Stew are each 4-CD packages, and all of the above can be purchased by mail order from this U.S. distributor: [cdcollection.fcpages.com]
Eh, it's probably DIRTY WORK followed by UNDERCOVER and then ABB...
I've always been convinced that "Biggest Mistake" is a leftover from Alfie--just sounds so musically and lyrically tied to that project.
Anyone know anything about this?
Keith pushed Mick to write this song, so I doubt if Mick wrote it for Alfie.
It's all about Jerry.
Talk about your favorite band.

when BRIDGES TO BABYLON was released, was there even net yet?
Yes there was... and the chat room was called Very English and Rolling Stones or something like that.. after it faded away I think Toru (or somebody) started antoher similar room.
I first encountered Rolling Hansie (and some others) back then and we even scheduled and I attended a big Stones concert preparty In Columbus with 15-20 people from that room. I wonder how many/if any of those people post here? I know and am very happy that Hans does, he is one of IORR's greats!
That's cool, Max! But IORR also existed in 1997, pre-B2B. That's when I joined this forum.

Hey, it's no Beggars Banquet, but after a long hiatus, I listened to it and enjoyed the songs.
There, I said it!
I hope history looks back with kind words for this album.

The Bigger Bang album wasn't bad. One thing I liked about the album was that it was the first album the Stones made, probably since Beggar's Banquet, where they didn't use a lot of guest musicians. With the exception of a keyboard player it was practically just them on the album. There was no Bernard Fowler or Lisa Fisher or any horn section, etc.

I like it too.
Steel Wheels, Voodoo Lounge, Bridges, & Bigger Bang would have all been better if they had been made for vinyl release.
Trim each of them to their 9 or 10 best tracks, assuming they cropped the correct songs, and you've got a pretty solid late run of albums.

Its a solid friggen album. Its too long but the writing and musicianship was there and its the only later era album I can really say I enjoy. To me, minus two songs or so, the others are unlistenable to me. A Bigger Bang stood up and I have no idea why it gets so much shit (its been explained to me, I just don't agree) other than it was their last album so we have to shit on it until a new one comes out.

It was good but the production is seriously flawed. There are also some tracks that should have been left off. Sweet Neo Con and Infamy are terrible.

Voodoo Lounge, Bridges, & Bigger Bang
Got the official releases of these but could anyone point me in the right direction of the best Alt mix / Bootleg / demo's type thing of these?

Biggest Mistake has an Aftermath-feel to it, imo. Something about the chorus, and Keith's guitar playing as well.
I didn't like it at first, but this is one of the ABB-songs that really has grown on me - probably my favourite from that album today.

I'm with you on this one seitan. Although I quite like SOL. It worked really well live.
Just don't care for the guitar sound that much or "Sweet Neocon" and Keith's two songs. Ditch those three for me and have a warmer guitar sound and it's a ball tearer to me.

Parts of ABB are quite unlistenable without permanent damage to one's IQ and self-respect. But a few other parts are marvelous, and surprisingly well-produced. Listen to how good Charlie sounds on "Dangerous Beauty", for example ... that crisp smack as he pounds the living crap out of the drums is a joy to listen to.
