Midnight Rambler is relatively weak here.
Live With Me has an unrepeated groove.
Gimme Sheleter on this is not my cup of tea on this album.
YCAGWYW would be better without the choir.
I never listen to this album but I often listen to the songs recorded live.

oh c'mon, isn't it ok to just lob one in every once in a while? :-)
glad you took my comment in the spirit it was intended.

Creativity all around on this album: nine songs, all very different, all shining pearls.
Mick and Keith definitely worked themselves up to be the best songwriting duo around.
There's not one weak song around, and there's not one song that overshadows the others
either.
Though other musicians like Nicky Hopkins, Ry Cooder and Jimmy Miller might have had
influence on the results, I have the impression they were mainly inspirational. It took
the hands of the Glimmer Twins to lead all this input to some of the greatest rock songs
ever heard on this planet.

An incredibly brilliant album, and probably Keith's claim to be the greatest studio musician ever.

A classic, excellent. Keith had to do it on his own as a guitarist here, and he showed it..

LET IT BLEED is absolutely an incredible album and is always a problem when it comes to which album is their best album, period - LIB or STICKY FINGERS. Both of these albums are perfect - even considering what was not released on SF that went on EOMS.
Perhaps the brilliance of LIB is that it doesn't have Honky Tonk Women on it. Then again, we're just used to it that way. And the finished songs they left off: Jiving Sister Fanny, Sister Morphine, Downtown Suzie, I Don't Know Why and I'm Going Down were considered too weak, possibly, to make the album. Sister Morphine and I Don't Know Why are the greatest of these leftovers and could have worked on the album.

'Sister Morphine' fits better on SF.
