I fully agree that what I hold to be their third peak, kicks off right away with the single A-side "Jumping Jack Flash". And to add to that, to me (as I seem to have read others say something likewise before) "Child of the Moon" somehow constitutes this fabulous bridge from where they came, to this their new starting point. More than "Angie", I like to consider

I prefer to hold another point of view. It involves 1) a multi peak perspective 2) where it is difficult to make comparisons between periods and peaks. Because, what common measure sticks are there, which are not themselves coloured of individuals' personal preferences? Of course, that applies to my point of view as well. As to 1963/4 – 67 I would suggest a somewhat rough distinction

I have not got one favourite Stones album only, even if I in the past could have been made to nominate one. Rather, there are to me now 8 - 10 Stones albums in undecided rivalry for that title. That rivalry never stops. And at times there are outside contenders that do no qualify, but at given moments might give me as much intensity of feeling. There is much joy for me to have it that way.

1) GOATS HEAD SOUP. Not quite living up to its even greater potential, in my view. A more "gothic" sounding "Dancing with Mr D." could have contributed, more importantly, "Silver Train" and "Hide Your Love" are not as good as the first five songs, far from it, and the isolated very good song "Winter" is paradoxially not able to restore the album

At the moment I'd prefer the Stones to record two, three or four new songs more or less in the musical style of "Doom and Gloom" and "One More Shot". That would be with the view to release them as electronic singles, one at a time, during the winter and spring of 2013. Alternatively, one or two of those might be more trend or even commercially directed. The motivation wo
