Jair Hmmm. I wouldn't say. Probably some crap from Dirty Work.
Leaving DW out, i think some tune from Steel Wheels.
Also, what's define "heavy"?

Please Go Home
Stray Cat Blues
When The Whip Comes Down
Lies
Fight
Hold Back
Hold On To Your Hat

I smell some new songs with heavy sound on the new album too.

Steel Wheels Do you mean "heavy" as in the sound of the song, or by the lyrics, or by the emotions the song brings out?

Midnight Rambler is a good example, perhaps the best, of the Stones doing a "heavy" song.

stones-addict I think Sis' Morphine is pretty heavy in content.

Brainbell Jangler "Gimme Shelter," hands down. It don't get no heavier than war, children.

CYHMK absolutely! Fuckin' great song! The "jazz ending" as you said is geniously a proof of their technical skills.

2000 Light Years From Home is a good example of how heavy they sounded in 1967, I mean, heavier than anybody sounded.

Crazy Mama is great. Gimme Shelter used to sound as heavy as Black Sabbath's riffs (at the end of Alber Maysles movie you can notice how heavy this song sounded).

As Lugar used to label it, Indian Girl was sort of a Speed Metal track.

Saint Sway another vote for "Sway"

heaviest Stones tune ever - bc of both its powerful guitar riffs and its dark, drug damaged lyrics.

and one vote for "Gimme Shelter"
thats a heavy tune for sure. Check out the X-Pensive Wino version!!

Most fuckin' defintaley GIMME SHELTER from the end of the movie by the same name. My metal friends always trip out on how heavy it sounds. Bill's bass is killing! Would you happen to know if their is a full version of that song is the same quality? That version is edited correct.

I heard a live version of SWEET BLACK ANGEL off of GONNA BUST ANOTHER BOTTLE and that had some fat riffing on it.

J.J.Flash There's a very heavy RIFF on Potted Shrimp. Also, another good example is Jiving Sister Fanny, the version on Black Box (can't remember which disc).

Talking about HEAVY, you should listen Grandfunk Railroad's attempt of Gimme Shelter. Heavenly!

Zeeta With THREE loud, raw crunching guitars it has to be:

Lies dripping off your mouth like dirt
Lies, lies in every step you walk
Lies whispered sweetly in my ear
Lies, how do I get out of here?

Why, why do you have to be so cruel?
Lies, lies, lies, I ain't such a fool

Lies, lies in my papa's looks
Lies, lies in my history books
Lies, lies like they teach in class
Lies, lies, lies, I catch on way too fast

Fire, fire upon your wicked tongue
Lies, lies, lies, you're trying to spoil my fun

Lies, lies, you dirty Jezebel
Why, why, why, why don't you go to hell?

One more time

Why, why you think me such a fool?
Lies, lies, lies, honey, that's your rules

Lies upon lies upon lies upon lies upon lies
Lies, lies, lies...
