    To me, rock has to have an edge to it. It has to be a little rough around the edges. It’s why I prefer the Stones to the Beatles. I like music that sounds as if it’s a bunch of creeps playing in a garage. The shit rock is way too polished.

    It’s why most bands have a limited shelf life. You can only sound this way authentically for so long until you are a rich guy and life is good. Hard to be edgy when you live in a mansion, fly first class and stay at Four Seasons. 

    Reading this, Exile on Main Street came straight to mind. That's what a rock and roll album should sound like. As if it was recorded in a sleazy blues bar.
