In my opionion B2B is the best album since Tattoo You. It sounds modern and has great songs on it.

Nearly 25 years after release I still don't get the idea/concept behind this album. For me its not an album, more a collection of songs. Interesting: 'Tattoo You' just is a collection of songs, but to me feels like their best 'late' ALBUM to me.
B2B was recorded like that, f.ex. no Keith on 'Saint': just a collection of songs instead. Just a handful of songs I'm still listening to. But also the feeling, especially this album could've been much much better without the fights between Mick and Keith.
Ahead of its time? Definitely not. One more bad compromise between retro-Keith and progressive-Mick. Those limit most of the releases since 1983.

I feel exactly the same way as you about Bridges To Babylon. I was 15 at the time rather than 12, but the sentiment is totally the same

It's strangely dated. It's one thing to be experimental, another to not be particularly good at it. None of the cuts survived being played live now. In fact is You Got Me Rocking the only post Wyman album song they've played live since 2012?
I know they've done Doom and Gloom and Ghost Town. And oh yeah, they played a couple of the 'bonus' cuts from the GHS and TY boxsets.

C'mon, they have played "Out of Control" pretty often, and I think it works damn well live. One of the show higlights for me.
