By placing Emotional Rescue at the bottom of the barrel, this writer has instantly lost all credibility.
While not in my personal top 10, it's far better than Undercover, Dirty Work, Steel Wheels, Bridges, Voodoo, A bigger Bang, and Shine a Light.
"Dance (Pt. 1) is right up there on the rotten front as well, which is a shame as it marks Ronnie Wood’s only writing credit alongside Jagger and Richards.
Some might say it sounds an awful lot like Led Zeppelin’s Trampled Underfoot"
What an idiotic statement - I give this writer two thumbs down.

Why? I'd have thought that ER is a fairly obvious choice, particularly from a classic rock perspective.

Lol you can tell people here are diehard fans, but Emotional Rescue is an awful album. Not worse than their post 1981 ones, but its easily their worst from before they started to stop caring (Tattoo You, and earlier). Like, without question there's no album worse before it in their catalogue.

LOL, I'd take ER any day to GHS, IORR and BAB.

I'll give you Black And Blue. I forgot that one is pretty awful as well. I guess at least for me there are 2-4 songs I truly like and feel add to their catalogue. And I also thought that album was very well liked here. But GHS and IORR, while not being classics, are more than fine records. IORR has way more good than bad.

None of these albums are «awful». They're all very good. ER is excellent.

Emotional Rescue is a great classic Rolling Stones album and better for sure then UC, DW, SW, VL, BTB, ABB.

Good to see A Bigger Bang relatively high in the list at 11 and Goats Head Soup down in 19; the latter has for too long been grossly overrated, sometimes to the extent of fans or critics attempting to include it in a 'big 5' alongside the studio albums released between 1968 and 1972.
Also, why are so many of the great live albums absent? Not to include at least one of Stripped, No Security or Live Licks seems absurd.

Like, without question, eh? So clearly otherwise. Then I will speak factually:
THEIR SATANIC MAJESTIES REQUEST is their worst album prior to DIRTY WORK, which is the epitome of what a worst album is. ER is nowhere near as bad as either of those albums.

>>The Stones hate Between The Buttons and its because they are morons and its a great record. They aren't always right. I see no redeeming factors in ER, its a bad album in my eyes. <<
when did any of them say they 'hate' between the buttons?
one cannot call the Rolling Stones 'morons'...
why is ER a bad album?
