Quoterollmops I like your list Gaslightstreet. I am a Ronnie's fan too. I would add "Black Limousine" from Tattoo You. A little masterpiece by Woody; his credits are all over it and the rest of the Stones do an amazing job on it. I thought about that. Probably the better choice considering his slide playing.

Quotematxil If we forget for a bit about what Stones-fans think of their old and new albums, a sterile debate that has filled many pages, we could think about what people who don't particularly like the Stones think. The last time the Stones really impressed people (like making a impression, either good of bad) was with Start Me Up and up to a point Undercover of the Night. Most of my fr

In lieu of Ronnie's 78th birthday on June first, the first day of meteorological summer for the northern hemisphere and hurricane season for the Atlantic basin, what songs stick out for his duration since 1976? Due to Ronnie's duration with The Rolling Stones it's obvious for some people that there are more than the Taylor or Jones years. I figure a limit of 20 tracks can s

QuotetreaclefingersWhen I think of the best Stones albums since the big 4, there's always a duff track on there, a throwaway. Some Girls had Lies, Tattoo You had Neighbours, Black and Blue had Cherry Oh Baby, IORR had Short and Curlies, so for me, LBTS is that track on HD. Eh, Imagination is the throwaway track for me on SG. Lies is excellent and has certainly found new poignancy in recen

QuoteSpud HD sounds quite good on vinyl in terms of the the mastering and sound . I think this is kind of by accident though It's quite a long record for a single LP but, thankfully , universal didn't put it out as a two disc album as is too often the trend with modern vinyl. This has resulted in them not being able cut it too loud and it retains a reasonably natural dynamics

Quote24FPS Hackney Diamonds is a great Stones album. Maybe their most pleasing work since TY, or even Some Girls. I have listened to it repeatedly. I have not listened to a Stones album repeatedly since Steel Wheels. I noticed any actual news on a new album stopped on the first page of this post. I can see where unreleased songs from certain periods didn't fit the feel of the album. That

If one buys the album, in whatever format, criticism is part of the deal. It's part of the investment. It doesn't change anything other than. If one is just streaming... they don't own it, it's just a momentary rental, so criticism means less and it changes zero. Opinions without facts are wrong opinions.
