Yeah, thought you'd like that. Man it's a tough one today..

Rebel Rebel (Bowie)

Why not talk whole albums? E.g. "Riot City Blues" and "Give Out But Don't Give Up" by Primal Scream....

Both great albums by the way ;-)

Let It Rock.

Moving On Up - Primal Scream

Excellent choice!

Love the line 'Though I'm dressed in these rags I'll wear sable some day'. Really snotty Jagger like line. Could have come off Aftermath that one.

Here's a crisp, fresh, well-sonic, full-time sample
of Blackout Of Gretely by The Gonn
[profile.myspace.com]

Rebel Rebel (Bowie).

It sounds just like The Stones.

The New York Dolls first album. Especially:

Pills
Subway Train
Looking For A Kiss

I'm tired, I'm tired of doing what I'm told.
Things are moving way too slow.

Ever heard "Nobody" by the Replacements? (From "All Shook Down")

Boastful and self-deprecating all at once with a joyously lazy groove. Reminds me of "Let It Bleed." And that is never, ever a bad thing...

Speaking of The Replacements. Westerbergs Knockin On Mine is quite Stonesy and very cool.

Pushin Too Hard --The Seeds

Dirty Water --The Standells

Steppin Out --Paul Revere & The Raiders

Definitely the Primal Scream stuff was my first thought.

Whenever I hear Gloria, I always think that Mick Jagger would really have a good time with the lyrics and The Rolling Stones would really kill covering that song live.

The Ziggy Stardust song would (have) be(-en) interesting to hear them handle
(at least in 72-73) too.......

big hit from 1966 , 1st time i heard it i thougth it was Da Stones

Who's that i see walkin in these woods ,
why its Lil Red Riding Hood

It's All Over Now, done by the Stones, but not written by them. The question refers to songs they didn't write, not perform.

"Watch That Man" - David Bowie

All Right Now (The Free)

"Hard to Make a Stand" by Sheryl Crow

It sounds like a Stones song. Some of her other songs do too. I could see Mick moving to "My Favorite Mistake".

"You'll be studying history and you'll be down the gym. And I'll be down the pub, probably playing pool and drinking."

what a great song, i still have the album

Agree with a lot of the Primal Scream noms, but I'd say that 'Damaged' off 'Screamadelica' is their most Stonesy moment. Could be an outtake from GHS.

Two not mentioned elsewhere:

Shake Yor Money by Black Grape. OK, it "vocally samples" 'Fool To Cry', but it has a perfect, loose early 70s vibe.

Swedish band The Soundtracks Of Our Lives can sound very Stonesy. A lot of very Keef-esque riffs on the 'Behind The Music' album, particularly 'Sister Surround' and '20th Century Rip-Off'.

Oh - and this thread would be incomplete without a mention of The Pretty Things.

Jimmy Miller got a credit for this song as a 'additional producer' and he mixed it too

that one by the Chralateens, you know the one that sounded like the stones.

Re. The Groovies Teenage Head is the best album the stones never recorded.

'Just When You're Thinking Things Over' - a clone of 'Torn & Frayed'.

That Dandy Warhols' song 'Bohemian Like You' also bears a strong resemblance to 'Brown Sugar'

I Used to Love Her (But I had to Kill Her ) Guns N Roses

"Judy in Disguise" - John Fred & His Playboy Band

"Don't You Start Me Talkin" - New York Dolls

Hello!

It might be a bit off the main topic here, but I like to mention
Duane Jarvis' cd "Far From Perfect" from 1998; if you're interested in
Stones stuff from the "Sticky Fingers" era with a lot of country rock
influence, give this a try!
Or in other words, if I would re-record this cd on cassette with a very muddy sound,I could sell it to some bootleggers as a third generation tape of "Sticky
Fingers" outtakes!!
Great songs and a vocal style not so far away from Jaggers!
