Quotekeefriffhards Quote1962 I can only listen to four tracks: the two singles (both very good), Keith's track (quite good), and the blues (which is not bad). All the other crap is Mick's solo record-like garbage. I don't understand why it was necessary to release an album. Of course I know, because Mick wanted it and old Keith agreed for the sake of peace. (And I hav

QuoteDandelionPowderman My main beef with the latter-day albums (VL, B2B and AB has been the lack of good melodies. They are certainly back on HD. It doesn't necessarily make the songs more pop, though, just more interesting, imo. Not only more interesting, but also more recognizable, more memorable, more begging for repeated listening.

QuoteDoxa Quotepaulspendel Artists in their 'late days' tend to minimalise their sound. Look at Cash, look at Solomon Burke. An intimate, warm sound with a basic band. Downplaying to get the opposite effect, if you get my drift. From the two first songs I derive they opted for a more orchestral, big sound.Nothing wrong with that. I would have preferred a smaller bang instead of a bigger

Quotegoingmad QuoteDandelionPowderman Quotemarcovandereijk How about Saint of me as a gospel inspired song? I think Billy Preston (he went to church in Brussels?) is the first one to bring some gospel into the music, as he did on Shine a Light and Saint of me. And isn't Salt of the Earth also an example of the Stones flirting with gospel? Indeed. There is certainly a gospel-vibe (espe

QuoteSomeGuy One aspect that struck me with both Angry and Sweet Sounds is, that Jagger sounds pretty strong. The way he sounds on Tattoo You comes to mind immediately. "Inspiration" and "confidence" are the magic words here. For musicians, these usually derive from the feeling that the material you're recording is great. Bodes well for the album as a whole!

It is a true masterpiece. In the very tradition of Stones blues. Recording is topnotch. Mick’s voice is powerful (whatever technics supports it), the horns lines is simply magic.

Of course the video with (nearly) all band members is staged, but warming up like this with Chuck is part of Mick's backstage routine. I witnessed them doing other stuff boogie-woogie style like "All Down The Line" - goosebumps all the way!

Quotebitusa2012 Well colour me stunned. I was anxious from the first time I heard that first snippet. I thought Lady GaGa was just too prominent. I eat my words. She’s the PERFECT foil on this to Mick. It’s just a stunning piece of music. Is it a match for their 1968-1972 output? Of that I am not sure. But I am sure it’s one of their greatest songs SINCE 1972. It’s just blown me away. Pa
