LOL...I hope you're not trying to suggest that that pile of crap about 'yellow/jello' and 'staring down your tits' is an attempt at irony thats gone over all of the heads of those wannabee critics amongst us?

That's what I'm hoping for! I don't think it's quite as bad as "sharks will cry" but yes, it's close.

"Where the boys go" was their last good song.

glencar Thanks man!

mrhipfl 2 things that should have been added to the album are some Chuck Berry influence and some horns. Even just a saxophone would have improved the album significantly.

glencar They get rid of the horns & now you miss them? There's no pleasing the fanbase.

I was never one to complain about horns. I love the horns in the stones songs, especially on studio-recorded songs. They are overused live, though. And like Lisa on back-up vocals, too.

JumpingKentFlash Easy:

1.- Rough Justice.
2.- Back Of My Hand.
3.- Oh No Not You Again.
4.- Rain Fall Down.
5.- This Place Is Empty.
6.- Driving Too Fast.


No contest.
Edit: Fuck, I forgot SOL.

1.- Rough Justice.
2.- Back Of My Hand.
3.- Oh No Not You Again.
4.- Rain Fall Down.
5.- This Place Is Empty.
6.- Streets Of Love.

That's right.

I could live without those damned horns (with the exception of Bobby, of course) and the rest of the circus they've got going on up there. It'd be so nice to see them with just Bobby and maybe Lisa, Bernard and Blondie on backing vocals. It'd also be nice to see Ronnie and Keith handling some of the backing vocals, but I guess that's asking for too much...

>Gotta keep current or you die.<

Oh I keeps current on da rocks and da rolls. I do a "Best of" every year. And those discs kick serious ass. They will hold you down, and purple nurple you until you squeal for ya mammy. True dat. Rock so vicious that it will rip your face off like a starvin' Puma. A Puma I say! But see, that's the thing...I like Rock n Roll. And ABB does not fit my idea of rock n roll...and it never will.

Where's the snarly attitude? Where is the piss and vinegar? Where's the songs about hot chicks, and drugs and drinkin, and fuckin & fightin? Where's the smarmy humor? Where's the paint peelin guitars? Where's the songs that make you wanna smash shit up and fuck the wife in the ass? Where's the damn songs that rip my face off like a damn starvin' Puma?!? I said PUMA again!!! Where are they man? Why aren't they on ABB where they should be? Where is the damn dangerous razor sharp edge that threatens ominously to disembowel me at any second? That's what I love most about The Stone's music...WHERE THE FUCK DID THAT SHIT GO????? I can't fucking hear it in there man...I WANNA FUCKIN' HEAR IT!!! But I can't hear what ain't there...and that is what frustrates me the most. That, and the Pumas.

I want it back in there damn it(not the Pumas though...I don't like Pumas). Someone should make that happen. Maybe we can hypnotize them back into giving a shit again. Or something.

>Rock & Roll is a young man's game.<

Not really. Neil has the last name Young, but he ain't young no more. Does not stop him from rockin' his ass off. Dylan may be Forever Young, but his body ain't. Shit, the man can't even strap a guitar on for concerts anymore. Don't stop him from rockin' either. Radio Birdman...old enough to be my dad(s)...and they will rock the teeth right outta yer skull. Iggy? Got an AARP card years ago. Yet he can tear your arms out of their sockets with his righteous rockin'. David Johansen and Syl Sylvain are so old that they fart dust. Yet their rock will peel yer scalp back. Buzzcocks...all came out of a retirement village...and rock so hard that their music will slice yer ears off with a buzzsaw. They blew two bands half their age off the stage, out the damn door, across the Delaware, and into Camden NJ. And THAT's where a wild Puma ripped their faces off like a damn starvin'....uh...Puma.

No. Chronological age has nothing to do with rock n roll. It's the age of the soul my man. But Puma's...man they got no soul at all. They just got deep endless black where them soul should be. Pumas...fuck 'em man, I hate 'em...I hate 'em real bad. Because they are Pumas, and they want to rip my face off. And I like my face...I'm, like, all handsome and stuff. But I won't be all handsome and stuff if a Puma rips off my face.

I would fuck up a Lynx though. Lynx's are pussies.




Holy shit. How did I miss this the other day? SS, that right there is some heavy-duty postin'...worthy of Creem in their heyday. Bra-fuckin'-vo, dude.

so Bloozehound why dont you post your top 6 from ABB? I'm waiting till all the votes are in to count em up!

Anyone else who hasnt responded yet, post your top 6 too! I'm making the new deadline Dec. 31st, OK? The thread should be fading to the back pages by then....but I think it should be interesting to collectively see which songs are most liked by the old die-hards here!

I agree. I think B2B is their best effort since Tattoo You (including ABB)...although I like about half of Voodoo Lounge a lot too.
