Get rid of "See What Happens" and add the We Love You/Dandelion single and you'd have a psychedelic classic.

This is Brian's record as much as Mick and Keith's. This is one of Brian's highpoints.

Are you sure? I read that Brian Jones hated the record and was glad when the Stones got back to their roots in the next record, "Beggars Banquet."

I got a CD version (from Mickboy?) in this direction.But I must say I even like Sing this all together.

Judging on the outtakes boxsets Keith Richards really was the driver behind the recording sessions in those days, aided by Jagger and Nicky Hopkins. Brian Jones is fairly absent from the record, apart from some (fantastic!) Mellotron parts.

Look for the four Beatles Heads on the cover - they are there, done in responseQuote
peoplewitheyes
well, i maybe heard it once as a teenager 25 years ago, but am just listening to it now... basically for the first real time
Wow! it's freaking awesome!
The Lantern, Citadel, In Another Land....
great stuff. I know it gets shat on by many on here, but it sounds so rich, full of intriguing instrumentation, effects, backing vocals, and the song arrangements are incredible. Constantly switching tempo, texture.
I can't believe i've been ignoring (or 'saving'!) this for all these years.
I'm looking forward to another listen in a few hours to get my head around so much richness.

An artistically failed attempt to copycat the Beatles. Awkward, and the decisive low point in the career of the band.

Agree, but every time I suggest that someone tells me the time frame isn't right and COTM was recorded much later. However, I do think it originally comes from the time of TSMR.

I always thought so too. I can't remember the source but I swear reading either Keith or Mick saying even JJF had it's embryo in the TSMR sessions, but the actual sessions didn't happen until after the release of TSMR.
(It gets referred to an LSD inspired song, lyrically)
Child Of The Moon is closer in spirit to TSMR than Beggar's Banquet.
It's also important to remember just how fast they were working then.
It wasn't like from '78 onwards where every album was its own era.
Oh, and +1 to what Dandy said. I've only skimmed the surface of the voluminous session tapes but there is some fantastic stuff there.
