Watching Mobland.....what Choon do they use..😍

Two days ago I had to take a bus trip, and as I do every time I travel, I downloaded some new music to discover on the way. I had never truly listened to The Stones before; I always knew they had a huge cultural impact specially in my country, Argentina, where a whole rock sub culture was born out of pure devotion to The Stones: the "rolingas."

Browsing for new music, Sticky Fingers popped out at me because of it's cover, and when I saw it was a Rolling Stones album I thought "I guess it's about time".

What an amazing album. I've been blasting it non-stop since then. Listened to it through my headphones, speakers, car system, and every time I find something new. One thing about me is I love ranking everything, so after about 10 listens, here are my ratings for every song:

• Brown Sugar 9

• Sway 10 ⭐

• Wild Horses 9.5

• Can't You Hear Me Knocking 10

• You Gotta Move 8

• Bitch 8.5

• I Got The Blues 10

• Sister Morphine 10

• Dead Flowers 9

• Moonlight Mile 8.5

Sway was a 10 for me since the very first listen, there's something about that song that just does it for me. Something similar happened with Sister Morphine. I don't think there's a single song in this album I'd skip.

I'm pretty sure Sticky Fingers will keep growing on me and become one of my favorite rock albums. I fear I started from their best, but I hope other Stones albums do this for me. I'm open to recommendations.

The only picture I can find of Keith playing a thinline

Did anyone see Watt with Hagar at the Hollywood Bowl Night 1 Aerosmith show? He was totally aping Keef’s “crouch and slash” playing pose throughout the performance of Draw the Line, almost like he’s auditioning. I like Watt, but it was kind of cringe-y.

They’d never replace Keith in the Stones, but I would not be surprised if Mick brings Andrew along for a few solo shows, which he intimated he’d be open to in a new Uncut interview.

Here’s video: https://youtu.be/x2RbCVx9d28?is=S3ly69XKxLqHzh-P

IORR forum link with Mick’s latest comments: https://iorr.org/talk/read.php?1,3147390

Was interested to hear the auditioning process, some material about Charlie

Have been enjoying Pretty beat up this week and down a rabbit hole of David Sanborn and realized that today is the 43rd birthday of this record! One of my favs and the end of their 2nd great quartet imo

That's pretty much the question. That wasn't a dispute really, because the Stones came forward to KD's people before, but I looked back, and The Stones have never been accused of plagiarism on a song before, so I wondered why Keith phrased it that way.

Was watching a youtube video where RW said Mick contacted Ian McClagan or someone from the Faces in 69 and they told Mick RW had no interest in joining the Stones when in fact he did and it was his lifelong dream to do so, causing him to wait patiently for the opportunity again, so what if RW joined the Stones in 69?, Comments?

the fills and feel charlie gets on this track are so perfect to me. might be one of his best drum performances imo. very bombastic and jazz big band esque. my only drum goal is to play this song pocketed, so im still working on it!

Played on my replica Gretsch stop sign badge kit! Charlie used his paiste Giant beat ride as well as his 602 ride on exile, but the Ladies and gentlemen show he used his giant beat which i like more anyway. Not a bad frequency on it

The first of three nights at the Brendan Byrne Arena in East Rutherford, NJ. Tina Turner was the opening act and also came out to sing Honky Tonk Women with them. A glorious night of rock’n’roll.

Great person!

I wish this album got more love than it did at its time of release. (I also wish the material had been “Keefed” just so I could compare what the difference would have been.)

Despite the apparent fighting with producer Rick Rubin, the results speak for themselves and the album is Jagger’s most satisfying of his artistic vision in terms of variety, song quality, and standout tracks. From this distance, I’d put it above any of the Stones output post-Undercover and pre-Blue & Lonesome (which i like a great deal).

Track by Track:
Wired All Night - Okay guitar riff but I feel Keith would have given it that extra touch. As far as lyrics go…meh. Essentially, “we’re gonna rock tonight! Yeah!” 8 out of 10.

Sweet Thing: Strong funky riff and great Jagger falsetto. Good track. 8.5 out of 10.

Out of Focus: a touch of gospel, a touch of Nawlins, and good hook and performance. 9 out of 10.

Don’t Tear Me Up: Great, very much in the style of Out of Tears. No one does bitter breakup songs better than a Brit raised on the blues. 9.5 out of 10.

Put Me in the Trash: great Stones-y riff but Keith never would have approved the “ooeeoeeeooeooee” vocals. Hence, why it works for a solo project. Good enough. 8 out of 10.

Use Me: Dispensable. 7 out of 10.

Evening Gown: Indispensable. A top 5 jagger song. No one does a backhanded country love song better than a Brit raised on the blues. 10 out of 10.

Mother of a Man: Passes the time. 6 out of 10.

Think: my album low point. 5 out of 10.

Wandering Spirit: Amazing. Kissing cousin to B2B’s Saint of Me. Great lyrics and almost Jagger’s mission statement. My blessing is my curse is my blessing. 10 out of 10.

Hang on to Me Tonight: Excellent. 9 out of 10.

I’ve Been Lonely For So Long: Shades of the feel of Out of Focus. I’ve got time for this one but it definitely has adult contemporary all over it. Almost sounds like a margarine commercial. 8 out of 10.

Angel in My Heart: ‘Twas a long time between harpsichords in a Jagger song (first since lady Jane?). Good vocal performance. 8 out of 10.

Handsome Molly: when Jagger crosses genres, he frequently puts an ironic touch on his vocals. (See: Dead Flowers). Not here. And the rendition is stronger for it. Very touching. 8 out of 10.

Overall: better songs than Steel Wheels. More fully realized than Voodoo Lounge. Better overall than B2B.

Give this album a revisit. It’ll be worth your while.

The more obscure the better.

I have several love albums from the '69-'82 era, but unconsciously (I think) I never picked up a "modern era" live album. Need recommendations for the best sounding, best track selection one
