Crosseyed Heart is indeed better than any Stones album since Tattoo You - and Something For Nothing is the best track on the album!

QuoteLongBeachArena72 I was listening to two wonderful covers this morning, of the same song, "Let's Spend the Night Together": The Jerry Garcia Band (including the magical Nicky Hopkins), and David Bowie Both are "keepers," for very different reasons, of course.

Robert Christgau: " Dirty Work Dreaming of solo glory, Mick doesn't have much time for his band these days--just plugged into his Stones mode and spewed whatever he had to spew, adding lyrics and a few key musical ideas to tracks Ron and Keith completed before the star sullied his consciousness with them.

A kick-ass song, and one of their very best opening tracks (which is saying quite a lot). And Jagger in particular shines - he sings like a man possessed.

I like Rough Justice, I can tolerate It Wont Take Long, Infamy, This Place Is Empty and Back Of My Hand The rest sounds like lesser cuts on a below average Jagger solo album...

No one did Chuck as good as the Stones - maybe apart from Chuck himself. Other contenders: Jimi Hendrix - Johnny B. Goode Bruce Springsteen - Sweet Little Sixteen Emmylou Harris - You Never Can Tell

I'd have to choose Crosseyed Heart. However, they're both surprisingly good - IMO better than any Stones album since Tattoo You

This just reflects the fact that the Stones haven't been musically relevant since 1983.

A true classic. I suspect the reason why they rarely play it live is simply cause Mick & Keith realise they're unable to do it justice.
