    Really like this album. It’s been a fun listen this week during my work commute.

    I had to fly to colombia for work before my stones store blue vinyl showed up at my house.  I am trying not to listen to anything until I get home and can put it on the record player.

    I'm a few listens in now. Considering the stage they're at in their lives and career, it's a really strong album. Commercial and radio friendly but the songs are good and Mick sounds incredible considering he's 80 years old. I think "Live By The Sword" is my favourite track on the album.

    It's very good.  I'm not sure there is a "Gimme Shelter" level song, but every one is pretty damn good

    I need further listening, but I like all the songs so far.  I wish I could get this excited about some of my other favorite bands more recent albums like Gigaton, Barn, Walk Around The Moon etc.  I can see myself listening to this one for years off and on and still enjoying it.

    Some new favourites include Angry, Bite my Head Off, Live by the Sword and Get Close. All in all it feels like a really complete album with a few nice twists and turns just to keep it interesting.

    I was listening to Bite My Head Off the other day and was trying to think of another Stones song in their history where Mick cussed like a sailor like he does in this one.  Maybe someone more familiar with their deep cuts can chime in.  But I find it amusing that at 80 years old, he decided to not GAF and go full potty mouth. lol

    I've been listening to Whole Wide World a bunch lately. Just can't believe these guys are 80 and put out an album that rocks this much. Can't imagine what it must have been like in that recording studio with the Stones and Paul McCartney jamming together. Crazy stuff.

    Good call!  I just listened to it and it definitely qualifies.

    Try 'Some Girls' if you never heard it. Good one. My bro was a big stones fan and I remember being shocked by this one as a kid. Not littered with the f bomb.

    Sounds like the Stones are possibly announcing a tour next week!
