Brighter Than Dark's Creation is the best album of 2008 so far. Anyone who loves Exile will love this classic bar band. Killer songs and a ghost on the highway brooding attitude.

That's How Strong My Love Is at Paris Olympia without a shadow of a doubt. It's almost like going back in time to 65. Jagger hasn't sung with so much conviction live since the 70s...maybe even the mid-60s. Tremendous soulful performance.

Miss You and Start Me Up to go please. It's a tired old cliche to start every show with Start Me Up. We all know it's gonna be there so why do it? They're just going through the motions on this one. And Miss You is probably still there for the posterity of being the last big hit they had but probably more because it is the perfect length for the band to roll out on the B-stage.

Any of you out there who don't know the Oddesey and Oracle album and love lush orchestral psychedelia such as Love's Forever Changes then you'll really dig this. Very, very English sounding but songs to die for. You can file it next to anything off The Beatles psych period, The Byrds' Notororious Byrd Brothers, Pet Sounds, The Kinks Are The Village Green Preservation Society o

Let's not forget the Stones' PR machine will be in overdrive right now in advance of Shine A Light. We've already seen the Hell's Angels attempt on Jagger's life story appear so expect a lot more of these spins to get the boys back in the news.

I think the Stones should appoint an archivist who can at least get all the stuff they have in the vaults ready for release and sort out getting it all licensed. A contact, Matt Kent, had the job of doing exactly this for Pete Townshend/The Who and unearthed some amazing stuff - full concert footage and unreleased outtakes - that is now waiting to come out. The Stones have to realise that as time
