One of the greatest rock albums of all time! When the Rolling Stones were at their creative peak. The writing by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards was very inspired and the Musicianship is truely topnotch.

One of Stone's Best AlbumsReview created: 11/29/06
by:
My favorite Stones album has been Exile On Main Street for a while. After listening to this one, I'm not so sure. That one is a great collection with every song being good, and with it's length, I still have to give Exile the slight edge.
That being said, this is right up there with that album. The only difference is that this one has some of the Stone's best songs ever, including some that are ignored on their greatest hits collections. Sure this one has great standards like Brown Sugar and Wild Horses, but 2 songs that are usually ignored on best ofs are Can't You Hear Me Knocking and the underrated Bitch. Those two songs deserve the notoriety that goes with their best songs ever. Knocking is an excellent song through and through including a cool instrumental outro that'll drive you nuts for days because you can't get the cool riffs out of your head. Same with Bitch's main riff. Bitch just plain rocks. The rest of the album is pretty good. Sway, You Gotta Move, Sister Morphine, Moonlight Mile, and I Got The Blues are all better than average songs, and Dead Flowers is a cool song that's crossed between Creedence and Bob Dylan.
With little or no filler, Sticky Fingers has what it takes to be one of the best albums of all time. It has great songs and shows once again why Jagger and Richards are one of the best songwriting combos ever. I slightly prefer Exile over this one, if for nothing else, it's album length. But how can you argue with any of their tunes on this one? Brown Sugar, Wild Horses, Can't You Hear Me Knocking, and Bitch are four of their best songs. So this one should definitely be in anyone's collection, whether you're a die hard or casual fan. Even if you have 40 Licks (by far their best Greatest Hits compilation), this one should be in your collection because of the omissions of Knocking and Bitch on that double album.

A Wonderful Classic!Review created: 11/08/06
by:
This is one of my favorite albums from the seventies, I needed to add it to my cd collection. I already had it on cassette, but cd will last me forever. I think this is some of the Stones best work, it's a telling tale of the turbulence of the times. Highly recommend for the Rolling Stones fan. A+++

A really good album that would have been great, except that the Stones release so d**m many "greatest hits" albums. Some Of the songs sound stale to me. For instance if I hear Brown Sugar one more time I think I'm going to puke.

Coming into the 1970s, the Rolling Stones were going through a sort of simultaneous high and low. On one hand they had released two classic albums (Beggars Banquet and Let It Bleed) in the space of two years. On the other hand they had lost guitarist Brian Jones and had been host to the grisly murder at Altamont Speedway. What do you do in this situation? Well if you're the Rolling Stones you make another classic album. 1971's Sticky Fingers is that album. The album spun off three big radio hits and at least 8 of the 10 songs on the album have become Stones classics. The mood here is tense...

Between the years 1968 and 1972 the Rolling Stones were at the top of their game, releasing no less than four classic studio albums and one of the most beloved live albums of all time. In the middle of all this though to be exact- the band itself was going through turbulent times, with the death of founding member and lead guitarist (if such a thing applies to the Stones), Brian Jones. On both 1968 s Beggars Banquet and 1969 s Let It Bleed, Keith Richards played the vast majority of the guitar parts because of Jones being incapacitated due to his major LSD addiction. After Brian was found...

Here's the best way to un-depress yourself when you think about the big barrel of corporate fat and logos the Rolling Stones have buried themselves in since 1982 (Tattoo You was their last undisputed classic. Wanna dispute it? Okay, you lose. I win. Therefore, it is undisputed. Nyeah nyeah nyeah nyeah nyeah. You can't beat me. Can not! Can not! Can not! My daddy can beat up your daddy with only the TIP of his little finger). Thank goodness they hadn't invented drive by shootings and kids taking guns to elementary school in the mid 70s. Now that that debate has been intelligently and...

The Stones opened the 1970's with this album, lucky seven, their best ever. At the time this came out, the Beatles had broken up and the Stones were now the biggest act in Rock and Roll. They didn't become fat and bloated though; they just went out and created a pure example of rock and roll: the life, the sound and vibes underneath it all. They were helped along in this one with their new guitarist, Mick Taylor, and a solid backing of famous musicians: Jack Nietzche, Nicky Hopkins, Billy Preston, Rocky Dijon, Ry Cooder, Bobby Keys and Jimmy Miller, all on different tracks. The Stones took a..

The Rolling Stones elevate these three subjects to an almost concept album status on Sticky Fingers, which features Mick Taylor as a permanent replacement for Brian Jones (at least thats what they thought at the time) and the most infamous cover art of all time, courtesy Andy Warhol (the LP had a real zipper). Its also one of their best. Except for the first track, Brown Sugar. Musically, its kinda generic (except for the amazing sax solo), and lyrically, its just one of those "what were they thinking?" songs. In the words of Mick Jagger, "Its about the dual combination of sex and drugs." The.
