The use of Continental Drift as intro music to their 1989/90 shows (along with "Take The A Train" the best concert intros ever, IMHO) made me appreciate the album version finally. It's a great tune, just not Stones by numbers, which is probably the reason why Drift is not loved by all too many people out there!
To despise every Stones track that is a bit "different" as "Mick solo number" reveals a bit one-dimensional view of the band really. Keith's open G-riffing on each and every Stones track would be a bit, eh, boring in the end, no?

I like most of the songs except Hold On To Your Hat (tuneless imo) No stones groove. Do not like the mix on Break The Spell either. Most other tracks I like. MEZ

To state that a song that sounds like a bad Jagger solo song is great because of something they added to it that has nothing to do with the Stones is beyond laughable. A song that Keith bragged about playing a spoon on a bicycle wheel...
I like the Masters Of Joujouka part (I wondered at first what the intro was at the show because... I didn't like the song - I only listened to it a few times and it never did anything for me - in fact, the MOJ was more of a jolt), it's the actual song that sucks. And if you think that by not liking one song "reveals a one-dimensional view of the band" - that's weak and ignorant.

So you decide what has something to do or "has nothing to do with the Stones"? Or are you just licking Keith's boots because he "bragged about playing a spoon on a bicycle"? What's wrong with that anyway?
