I remember buying the Start Me Up 45, looking at the cover and thinking WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THOSE GUYS.
yeah, the dog leg in the high heel was a bit disturbing...but sort of uber cool.
I always thought it was a goats foot (or hoof) - or at least that's what it resembles - which makes it even more disturbing,
But I'm not an animal foot/hoof specialist, so what do I know?

you sir, are probably correct...and we are now finally finding out what happened to some other parts of 'that goat'.

Ahh... it was just an assumption.
Anyhow, maybe one of the goats arms will be used for an upcoming Stones release? Or maybe a goat tail?

A goat with arms? Now that would be disturbing!

I have to address the silliness of the few that somehow claim Tattoo You is better than Sticky Fingers. It is beyond laughable ... To start, the slow songs on Sticky Fingers: I Got The Blues, Sister Morphine, Wild Horses, Moonlight Mile are far better than the slower songs on TY, it's not even close or comparable actually, it's 2 different worlds.
Then you have Brown Sugar, Sway, Can't You Hear Me Knocking, Bitch, You Gotta Move, all such brilliant tracks, that perhaps only Slave on side A comes close, with Start Me Up close behind.
So stop the crazy talk please!

How many guitars are there on Dance? It's brilliantly done, but there must be 6 or 7 guitars in there..

Great record but with more fillers than the overall production reveals. Imo: Black limo (i never understood the love for this middle aged suburban family boogie), Heaven (lurks among the b-side gems), little t&a (love the vocals and the music, hate the stupid lyrics), Neighbours (ok as a filler, nice chords but cant stand Micks macho vocals), Hang fire (ok as a filler but too Springsteeny happy go Saturday in the middle of the week).

Hang Fire is one of my favourites on TY. The sound, the drive, the playing, the fantastic vocals. Keith's solo is gold - the rhythm playing is brutal. Everybody is locked in.
A superb rocker (and one of the most fun Stones-tunes to play, I learned).

Neighbours is killer. Hang Fire is fantastic - just as Lies is. How anyone can say those songs are weak needs to have their brain examined!

I would, but PET scans are expensive. So, for the moment, I will just skip Lies on SG and Hang Fire on TY and hope for some cure. Maybe Dandelion's suggestion of trying to play it will be a therapy.

Well guess what I had mine checked and it turns out I was right! Doc urged me to to ask all of you to do the scan. She was very specific about Hang fire.

An fMRI might be better.

You mentioning fMRI made me think of the line "my blood starts to flow".
Not sure you wanted to go there...

I guess in a thread about Tattoo You its only to be expected that many of the participants do like the album a lot.
To me, Heaven is probably the least favourite track, I compare it to other, untypical Stones tracks like Feel On Baby, Indian Girl, Blinded By Love, Sweethearts Together and songs like that. A tad sentimental if you ask me. Which brings me to the recent realization when playing Sticky Fingers that I used to like Sister Morphine, but now I think it's a little bit sentimental too, in a, well, whining fashion. Another song, that I have to admit I never really liked, is Wild Horses.
Ok, so, now that Ive offended just about everyone here, the thing that I'd like to stress is how good the lyrics on Tattoo You are. Even the most cliché'd (is that a word?) subjects do have this rather cynical side to them, which gives them a certain poignancy which I enjoy very much. You can find this in almost every song, especially No Use In Crying, Tops, Worried About You, Black Limousine, Hang Fire.

One needs to listen to Heaven with a great stereo system (or headphones)and get lost in the hypnotic groove.
My only complaint is that it isn't twice as long.

One thing I would not call "Sister Morphine" is "sentimental whining".
