Some Guy Emotional Rescue!!
1980, young and a hot summer. Those were the days. And then Tattoo You, great memories indeed. They could do no wrong, lots of radio airplay and MTV.

Stonesthrow For me, it would be Now! When I finally got enough money to buy an album, Now! was my choice. The first time spinning that golden piece of vinyl was magic.

Ronnie B. Wood i was born in the crossfire hurricane, no, no, i was born in 1987 . 20 years later than Their Satanic Majesties Request. And i am very sad because i didnt grow with the rolling stones... Best memories, Voodoo Lounge and Bridges to Babylon...

Some Guy I had to crank Emotional Rescue late last night while doing laundry, shake the basement. A memory is always waiting to happen.
02-22-04 11:29 AM
glencar Yeah, either ER or Some Girls.

T&A depends on when you first got into the Stones, I suppose. For me it would be Some Girls...summer of '78....

Steel Wheels So many memories, so little time to recount them. All of them are dirty.

Emotional Rescue - hot nights, boiling hot nights. An even hotter gal. Driving fast with the windows down.

Steel Wheels - I bought it and cut school a few days to get my head around it.

Voodoo Lounge - this was on when I encountered the two women who both liked me. The one had promo pictures of Keith and Charlie about her bed...

Tatoo You when I was nine was really cool. Mick in football pants and all.

As far as tour wise I would have to say Steel Wheels was my fav.
Voodoo was a great album. I lived that album in 1994. What great fun it all was.

BillyBoll I guess Some Girls. I finished my O Levels (GCSE's to those younger British members of the board) and it was my 16th birthday the day it came out. Walked down to Penny Lane Records, bought it, got stoned with my mates and went home and listened to charlies drumming.....

I have fond memories of many of the others, particularly side two of Tattoo You and "Stripped Companion" for different reasons!

glencar Is there any word on a new release?
02-23-04 10:32 PM
polksalad69 Tattoo You since I was born in '69, that's the first one I got for Christmas in '81. We used to check Some Girls out from the library but somehow I missed Emotional Rescue.
02-23-04 11:06 PM

Gimme Shelter For the best memories, I would have to say "Steel Wheels", because thats the album that they were touring behind the first time I saw them live. I remember how excited my friends and I were and we played it over and over, and couldn't wait to see them.

marko I still remember when i bought Tattoo You,it was cassette.
I remember when i was bying it,here,in a local record store.
Other available ones were:20 super hit,and one another decca
collection.I bought TY.I was SOLD OUT that day.And my final
decision,what is MY music.I was 10 at the time it came out.
During the same year,i started to collect all the magazines
about them,made a scrap book.I still have all those,up 1999!
I even have old music magazines,from 1972,1973,1975...

I also remmeber the day i bought Still Life,,,,,but the fucking tape player ate IT,saddest day of my life,at that
point.But 6months later i got for bday present,still have
the same album,all worn out.

Then came xmas 1983,I bought undercover on cassette,and on
vinyl.Casette got eaten again.

Year later,i got for xmas present REWIND,this was 1984.
Next spring gave us She�s the boss,and the next spring
Dirty Work.

At this point,i had ALL thet 1960ies albums,but NONE from
1970ies,,,,,they were very hard to get here back then.
There was NO new pressing of the albums,not UNTIL 1988!
i got em alllllll.Shit i was happy,still remember that
COLD winter when i bought them.Lots of snow back then.
-25 up to -30.Thru whole winter.

then 1989 steel wheels his the stores,i was living on my
own,nearly,i was home actually only sleeping,still studying
,year later my 1st show in Gothenburg,and the REAL maddness
begun,,,,,,,and i�m still on that road.

Hope it never ends.

None. No proof or validation of anything. Only speculation, educated guessing, and .....Extreme hope.

Zack The Going to a Go Go/Beast of Burden single, spinning incessantly on the jukebox at Duc's Tavern, Oxford Maryland, Summer of 82. Man, those was good times. Spliffs behind the bushes outside, 10 oz Budweiser in cans playing Centipede and 8-ball.
