The Stones haven’t done anything decent since Some Girls....

No, but who cares? The stretch from Beggars Banquet to Exile is so incredible, so sublime, its beyond description. How old is this guy?

The “Some Girls” album came out a month or so after HS graduation. I wasn’t a huge Stones fan, liked some of their music, but the woman I started dating at that time liked them A LOT. That album brings back fondling memories...well before “my4kidsmom”

Give the boys credit but The Rolling Stones died when Brisn Jones died.

The Rolling Stones... Let It Bleed, Beggars Banquet, Sticky Fingers... Maybe Exile on Main Street. And there’s onesie twozies on everything else they did they’re not my favourite but I’ve always enjoyed listening to Charlie Watts play the drums.

I missed the whole grunge scene and I did like Missing Persons because they came out of the Zappa camp, and I thought Talking Heads were interesting, The Police were pivotal, Led Zeppelin was really good with a hook, and I’ve seen most of these bands and out of all the bands I’ve seen one of my favorite concerts was Led Zeppelin in 1972, and my least favorite concert I’ve ever been to in my entire life was the Rolling Stones. Thankfully Stevie Wonder opened up for them that year and as far as I’m concerned the Rolling Stones still owe me money back on that ticket I purchased. I should charge them by the hour for putting me through what they put me through that day cuz it was absolutely terrible. I was in bands and I would have been embarrassed to be on stage playing like that in front of anybody.

I’m not a real big Dylan fan but I have heard other bands do a take a Dylan song and just make it their own and it’s phenomenal but I do like his lyrics and when I listen to a Dylan song it’s kind of like listening to a working version of something that is going to take on a whole different shape and sound.

And I don’t have the time nor do you all have the patience to listen to a diatribe about my personal music interests but I’ll just leave it at this I really dig Jazz and I like a lot of really good rock but there’s a lot of rock and a lot of jazz that just plain sucks.

I liked “Tattoo You”, too. The “director’s cut” of Exile had some good stuff on it.
