I totally agree! This is a fantastic album! The only song on it that is a bit clunky is Luxury. But its still cool. WOW! Side one ends with Time Waits for Know one, and epic song, and side two ends with the epic funk workout Fingerprint File, probably one of their purist funk numbers! Sublime! I too love this album and played it to death when I first got and still love pulling it out. If you

Some Girls as bad as Dirty Work? What the? Man that is just some crazy talk. Some Girls was their firey return. Some one posted earlier it was their 70's Beggars, and I agree! Punk, funk, R and B, country, and balls the wall rock and roll. The band is locked in tight on the whole thing. And Ronnie, Mick and Keith all singing harmonies together. I remember reading a review in Cream, and how

Woha Bimmelzerbott that is pretty strong stuff comparing SG with Dirty Work and Steel Wheels. No way. Nikolai, great summary. Hats off to Tele and Doxa too. And great analogy with Beggars Banquet! Brilliant comparison. Some Girls is epic and so layered with pure Stones magic that elevates it to Classic. In the top five for sure. One of their best concept albums. The Miss You Maxi single sho

Great song! Wish Hackney Diamonds was more in this vein and Sweet Sounds of Heaven. Great groove, menacing, and tinged with low key ska.

The reason Paul and Ringo felt it could be released now was because of the new technology Peter Jackson developed for the Get Back documentary. Before, as with all of Lennon's home demos, the vocal and piano tracks were on the same track and could not be isolated well, which caused a lot of bleeding between the two, creating a lot of distortion and poor quality (particularly noticeable on R
Forum: Tell Me

Yes, I have listened to the entire album. Those songs, as most of the songs, deal with women, and the same well Mick seems to dip back into over and over again... not any deep reflection on society, aging, life in general. When he was younger it worked, now it just seems tired and overplayed. Not much to relate to.
Forum: Tell Me

For me just another mundane release from a group that resembles The Rolling Stones. It reminds me a lot of A Bigger Bang, not too memorable and not an album I would ever really put on after a few listens. It is still clear that Mick and Keith don't really write together any longer. It seems for the most part like a Jagger solo record with some Keith and Ronnie sprinkled in here and there.

I think the video and song are beautiful! I am amazed by the taste, care, and love that was put into this project. First, there are great syncs in the video to the song, particularly the material from the Hello Goodbye video from 67. Those cuts are brilliant, especially the way the current Ringo and Paul are in those segments. Jackson did an amazing job with the clean up of a lot of the video,

Yes, induced coma helps doctors isolate specific areas of the brain for observation. It also helps the brain rejuvinate. This is common practice for sever head trauma.

I have the original Stones Mono box set. It is a mixed bag. Some of the pressing are not great. And to be honest a lot of their early albums were really poorly recorded with poor fidelity. The best sounding of them are Aftermath and Between the Buttons.

Vinyl has morphed out of its niche market and now out sells CDs, particularly in the US. In fact most used record stores really are having a hard time moving CDs. Vinyl, as was stated above, is a very stable platform for music. And when played on good equipment and properly cared for lasts indefinitely. CDs are prone to a lot of ill effects. CD rot (mold within the CD), degradation of the digital

Not true, they released Exile on Main Street deluxe on vinyl. All their deluxe releases have been on vinyl. And no vinyl is not just a resurgence fueled by millennials. Vinyl sounds better. Better quality, better fidelity. And better artistic statement. I also collect HD digital files. But CDS are terrible! And not eternal. They do degrade over time. And totally overpriced.

That is completely inaccurate! The effects of the vaccines are closely observed, quantified, and available data. Particularly when you’re getting a vaccine approved by the FDA.

No vaccines are 100% effective. These were never sold as being 100% effective. There are breakthrough cases. But the data overwhelmingly shows that those who contract it and have been vaccinated are less severely sick. That is a fact.
