I liked the songs Heartbeat City and You Might Say, but, as Dandelion says, it was too 80s for me. I had just discovered the greatest rock n roll band from the 60s and the 70s (and the 80s, but let's face it: not their best decade), so I didn't see the point in listening to lame synthesizer pop anymore. I can't speak for the rest of Europe, but I think what happened was that The

QuoteSomeGuy The Get Yer Ya Ya's Out version is by far my favourite. The contrast with Mick Taylor's solo (also brilliant) is, I think, particularly appealing. The studio version however, is somehow the measure by which to judge the other versions, perhaps because it is -in my opinion- the best version of the song anyway.

Or, or, or, they could have taken all good Keith songs (e.g. "Thief In The Night", "Slipping Away", "Sleep tonight"), give Keith some time off to create a few more and put together a few additional Keith solo albums. The remainder of the good Stones songs ("One Hit", "Laugh, I nearly died", "You Got Me Rocking") of the past 30 years woul

Quotestonehearted QuoteHalfNankerdoes anyone actually read any else's "set lists" in these posts??!! Yes, just to see how far-fetched and unreal some folks can be.

I think it's slightly overrated, like Revolver because although it's probably, like Revolver, one of their best albums, it also contains silliness and nonsense. For me, Abbey Road is especially worthwhile for Come Together, Oh Darling, I Want You and the two George Harrison songs. But, indeed, Octupus Garden and Maxwell's Silver Hammer are just stupid and annoying. Just as Yellow S

QuoteDandelionPowderman Quotenoughties There are some notes during JJF that weren`t there in the first place. This has been going on for some years now. It`s both Mick`s singing and some unneccessary guitar playing. It makes the song more of a lullaby than a wake up call. The notes were there in the first place, although they were skipped for 30 years in concert, but they've been back sinc

QuoteBungo I was watching the Sweet Summer Sun / Hyde Park show the other day and it struck me how retarded a song like Sympathy For The Devil has become over the years compared to the amazing versions heard on Get Yer Ya Yas Out. Why don't they just play it like that? 2 guitars, drums and bass. And the guitar lines they play in these current versions are just childish and un-musical compare

QuoteDandelionPowderman 29 years have passed, and I think that SW deserves more praise than we've given it. IMO, it's the album with the best songs and the best playing since Undercover. The production was top notch in 1989, but dated quickly. I don't know what happened, but I'm starting to find peace with that sound (maybe the 80s are back?) and the overall feel of the alb
