I have compiled 3 Stones "No-Hitter" CDs (covering different eras). Thinking of doing a post-Dirty Work one. Any thoughts?

Also, thinking of doing a McCartney one too. Thoughts?

No radio hits please.

By thoughts, I mean what songs should I use.

Complete 'London Town'...it's an absolute useless album musically...and for Stones ?

2 1 2 0

Damn, CO, I mean good songs! LOL

Actually, "Girlfriend" and "I've Had Enough" aren't bad.

Agree most hits are not the best songs,

With a little luck you can find some great tunes.

There are plenty of post DW tracks to make a good comp that are not singles. Exclude the singles, exclude the shit tracks like Sweet Neo Con, Streets Of Love, Sparks Will Fly, New Faces, Anyway You Look At It, Gunface, Might As Well Get Juiced and, perhaps, that's it, then you can pretty much have a decent playlist.

if I'm making mixed CD's of stones, I like to go thematic, as in:

Stones Country
Sycadelic Stones
Stones Dance Party
I Got The Blooz
Rolling In The Stones (Ballads)
Rolling Rockers

...you get the drift.

I performed this exercise and all that is on this CD is "Thru and Thru". I guess you recommend playing it on repeat?

Gomper should definitely be on there.

HA HA!

You could put it on a disc 12 times. That's 75 minutes instead of repeating it because that would just go on forever...

Post DIRTY WORK no-hits. I'm going to guess that also means no singles, regardless of how chart successful they were. This will fit on a CD:

Sad Sad Sad
Flip The Switch
It Won't Take Long
Lowdown
Dangerous Beauty
The Worst
This Place Is Empty
Blinded By Love
Hearts For Sale
Let Me Down Slow
Slipping Away
Moon Is Up
Break The Spell
The Storm
Fancy Man Blues
Laugh I Nearly Died
You Don't Have To Mean It
Thief In The Night
How Can I Stop

So you did 3 no hits compilations that are pre-DIRTY WORK...

I'm guessing you either did not use any of that abomination's tracks or if you did you used the best ones, Too Rude, Had It With You and Sleep Tonight.

Not having any DW tracks would not be noticed.
