In typical Stones fashion, they will release it at some point with a couple letters blocked out of the title someway. They'll get some free pub because every reporter on the planet with a stick up their butt will say something sanctimonious like, "We can't say on our network what the title is to the new release by those bad boys of rock and roll...."

Big deal. Let's not cancel the past. It wasn't all that controversial then. It's not even that interesting a promo. No production values at ll.

Great song. And that 78-year old codger can still rock. Do you realize Mick has been associated with the only two great songs about the pandemic, Ghost Town, and now this.

Kelly style documentary about the misbehaviour of our boys with young girls back in the days of free love Unlike R.

Quotelonglongwinter Well said and very accurate! Our boy Mick was way ahead of his time in creating Rolling Stones records in 1970 or so. It's always been about owning your masters.

All their post Steel Wheels albums will be forgiven in time. And there's about an album's worth of songs since 1989. They simply can't be the prolific Stones of old. Keith's fingers barely work, and Ronnie can't pick up all the slack. I thought Doom and Gloom, Ghost Town, and Rough Justice were A level Stones songs. And of course Blue & Lonesome is a gem. They can&

Those are fantastic. The color one was not from 1965. It's from the Hullabaloo TV shoot, 1966. And I'm glad it's in color. The only surviving kinescope is in black and white. If they ever try to colorize it, they have a guide.

Dirty Work was a chance to redeem themselves after the horrible Undercover album. (Too bad such a great song as Undercover of the Night has to be associated with such a nowhere album). Dirty has a couple great songs, One Hit, and Harlem Shuffle. (A Wyman tour de force). I think Winning Ugly has great lyrics but needed more work. Mick and Keith just didn't seem that interested in working

The problem is that it was a 'comeback' album. Bill split, and they seemed to have felt a little lost. That Golden Period was over. The consciously made a retro album, one that harkened back to their old songs. It is definitely not a courageous album artistically. Bridges was much more ambitious, but unfortunately had mixed results. I rarely listen a post Wyman Stones album. Blue &a

Times change. The hard rocking Stones of '72 gave way to the '75 disco, elegantly wasted Stones. The music was too serious for the times, so camp it up. Just like '78 had a punk edge to it. By '81 they said, screw it, let's just give them a good time.

And of course it all could depend on what show you hear. Most of us only know the show that was released on DVD, one of the L.A. shows. One of those nights is supposed to be legendary. It was assumed to '78 tour was a bust until the Texas DVD was released. Obviously we need a larger sample to draw from. And if you're extolling the Richards/Watts connection in '73, don't lea

Aren't we deep into Keith's junkiedom by 1975? Yes, breaking in a new guitarist. Charlie and Bill are fine, but they always were. Mick seems to have reached his exhaustion point. Notice the next tour of the U.S. in 1978 was shorter, and Mick seems in much better shape. I think he thought of '78 as a comeback of sorts, and was much more serious. Plus the uncertainty with Keith'
