Mick Jagger 1994



ROCKMAN

Thanks Rockman...I've got that Rolling Stone mag somewhere too. Great issue, terrific shots.

Best Bitch / Let it Rock...technically, both are on the B-Side

Worst...Fool to Cry--yeah, I know its an a side, but its SO bad, I had to list it anyway.

JR

Best B-Sides

"FAR AWAY EYES" for Miss You

and I believe "Shattered" for Beast of Burden...not 100% sure of this one.

PECMAN

Nope. That was a Sucking in the 70's ONLY track, making it essential (along w/ Dance Pt. 2).

was that an actual b-side? i think it was just a toss-in on Sucking in the 70's....

I Fink I'm Goin' Mad....Be of She Was Hot



ROCKMAN

Is that your favourite or least?

Think I'm Going Mad.

Everything's Turning to Gold.


Can't think of any I dislike enough to classify as "worst".
Though that could change at any given moment....

All close to the heart... cant really get into that favourite thang....

You already did, are you takin it all back?

Where and what am I takin' back...?



ROCKMAN

Well, maybe your earlier suggestions. You posted several, but then you said that you can`t get into that favourite thang. just wondered...

All those 60's b-sides are fantastic. Long Long While is a favourite at the moment.

My least favourite is probably something from the 70's. I honestly don't know the b-sides from this era off the top of my head.

No Use In Crying is not only a great b-side but a better song than Start Me Up. far from 'compared to SMU, anything will pale" I find it one of their most overrated songs. Its a great riff. Nothing more.


best b-side : Child of The Moon
worst b-side : Anyway you look At It

Re: a couple of questions above

The live When The Whip Comes Down wasnt a b-side but featured on Sucking In the 70's. The studio version however was the b-side to Beast of Burden (and 'Respectable' in the UK)

almost . . . but not quite. what about mick's nasaly "seeeeeeen" at 2:43? it's a great riff plus that moment. nothing more.

you can't catch me!

Ok..I'll give you that. Its a great radio friendly single which got the desired effect. As a song, I've always found it to be one of the weaker tracks on the album (great album though it is) - and thats not down to over familiarity either.

start me up and WOAF are the only tatoo U songs you here on the radio.

Wow...

It's left to me to propose that "Sweet Black Angel" is the best Stones b-side ever?

It seems like such a great, bizarre companion for "Tumbling Dice." I wasn't around at the time, but I imagine that if I had heard on release, my head would have been spinning, wondering about the forthcoming album...

I just love that ramshackle West Indian vibe on that track. One of my alltime favorites.

(I've also always liked "Down In The Hole" as a blues companion to the dance of "Emotional Rescue. So eclectic, so cool.)

Other favorites:

"Fancyman Blues"
"The Storm"
"Good Times, Bad Times"
"What A Shame"

Svartmer......dont take any notice of me
I'm a flippin' kinda guy...was thinking of
gettin' a sex-change but then thought what's
the friggin' use 'cause haven't worn out the one I got....have a good Xmas...

hardly surprising as they were the only two songs that were hit singles

If theres a radio station that regularly plays 25-30 year old album tracks that arent widely known then point me in its direction!

Best 'Stoned'
Worst 'Gotta Get Away'

2 1 2 0

Best - Album Track, Ruby Tuesday. Nonalbum track - Jump On Top of Me

Worst - I've always found Cook Cook Blues to be a bit of a strange B-Side and the B-Side to Mick's song on the Performance soundtrack was a disappointment.

BBC Radio 6?????

You Can't Always Get What You Want




Worst-

Fight



....No Use In Crying is NOT a better song than SMU.

you're wrong. no use in crying over it though.

you can't catch me!

No Use In Crying is a great b-side.

Reminds me of both the Brian years AND side two of Ooh La La.

That's an amazing 45. I was knocked out the first time I heard SMU on my car radio.

It was another unforgettable moment the first time I played No Use In Crying on my turntable. The Stones were BACK!!

It was a great time to be a Stones fan. Shortly after Tattoo You came out, I was sitting in a topless bar while a dj played the ENTIRE FIRST SIDE (it was unheard of to play more than one song by an artist at a time) and then proclaimed, "THE STONES ARE BACK!!"

Indeed.
