The songs are easy to play. That´s why. A-D...A-D...
The punk influence on SG has been much discussed ...but yes, they went back to making a big exuberant racket... not experienced perhaps since Exile.Quote

Some Girls is one of the greatest; when it came out in in 78, lot of the oldtimers critics/fans of the stones trashed it. I loved it from the start because I was a new young fan, listening to punk rock as much as classic rock at the time. I am glad to see that to this day SG is still perceived as a very special record. Fun,the rolling stones seemed to have fun again on stage and in the studio. Fun is a vital force in rock and roll.

It's tough not to argue with that...I go back and forth between LiB and SF. Exile is their most complete and cohesive album, but the individual songs on LiB and SF outweigh the collective brilliance of Exile.Quote

For me, pound for pound Let It Bleed is their greatest album. Before any discussion starts you have to remember it features Gimme Shelter, Midnight Rambler, Monkey Man, You Got The Silver, You Can't Always Get What You Want and Love In Vain. The other three songs ain't too bad either!

I agree Let It Bleed is their Best Album. BB is great but in comparison to LIB it somehow doesn't feel quite as authentically "Stones".

Beggars Banquet is more authentically stones. Bluesy, folkie, experimental, American, English, European.
All stones releases after Brian left have a huge chunk of stones authenticity missing.

It certainly has all these things but for most of the album IMO, it sounds more like they're searching for a new voice. None the less, the results are fuc*ng cool.
