    I like undercover of the night, actually. as I do harlem shuffle.

    But if you could only choose 16 songs (that's how many ESPN is using) to introduce somebody to the Stones, would they be on that list? I like a lot of their later work. But I can't help but wonder if I would even consider owning some of it had some other band recorded it. I think the same thing about some of Pearl Jam's work, I cut them slack. I think I can honestly say I wouldn't own at least 2 albums of Pearl Jam's had some other band recorded them. As long as it's listenable, I'll enjoy it to some degree though.

    Absolutely love the soulful and blues sound of Tumbling Dice. Just listened to this album again yesterday and man, it's such a treat after not listening to it for a while. The concept and feel for this album is just spectacular.


    Side 2 (Sweet Black Angel, Loving Cup, Torn & Frayed, Sweet Virginia) will always be my all-time favorite album side

    Ah yes, the "Country Side", or the "Gram Parsons Side", although some Stones fans get kind of butthurt over that name. They don't like the idea of Keith being influenced by somebody outside the band I guess. Though there seem to be more pictures of Keith and Gram at Nellcôte than Keith and Mick. That side of the album is definitely influenced by Gram.

    I love these pictures.

    Actually no. All of those pictures, as well as most every photograph taken in the south of France, were taken by Dominique Tarlé.
