Mmm, it's probably true that DW is more liked among younger fans.
But you don't have to be so condescending about it, because the time-context of the album as well as the style can hardly be compared to the artists you bring up. I don't see the connection between an early Madonna song (Like a virgin, Material Girl) and a DW song (Fight, One Hit, Had it with you). So that can't be the reason. The fact that us young fans who were brought up in the eighties (I'm 28) became Stones fans, is evidence enough that we're not average young people!

Jeez!

No full moon, I never heard that one. But I know of it. And you know, acoustic and bluesy are my favorite music related words even!!

Ah, well, DW was my very first Stones record. I got it for Xmas from my parents, nice vinyl, typically eighties neon colours on (ugly) cover. Maybe that's why I'm sesitive about it. I was 12 years old and got my first very own grownup record. I listened to it all the time, because it was the only Stones music I had at the time. After that, a friend of my mom started copying his Stones records onto audio cassettes for me. Stil have these somewhere.
And look what I've got myself into since then!!

Maxlugar I'm 36, Nasty is 32 and 2000 Man is, like, 50 and we all love Dirty Work.

It is revisionist to claim Dirty Work failed. When it came out it felt like it was going to be huge.

It they toured behind it it would have been a monster.

When you look back at the time that it was made, DW was a respectable hit...it reached #4 on the charts and went platinum...two songs from it reached the top 40....most of the Stones peers at that time were dead, broke up, or way past their commercial peak...the Stones were still competitive....and when you compare the artistic merits of the album to the stuff (pop-metal, synth pop) that was out at the time, DW looks even better
10-14-02 08:45 AM
full moon It is fashionable to slag the album, because it was around that time that is was " uncool" to like The Stones because they were " old". That is a load of garbage...
10-14-02 09:03 AM
Pants Make the Man I distinctly remember that "Dirty Work" got great reviews. One quote that I remember from Rolling Stone magazine called it their best album since "Exile On Main Street". Maybe I should smoke a dubious cigarette and give that album a second listen.

Joey " You just don't like Dirty Work because it harshes your mellow ..............."

And we all know how painful THAT can be !

Sir Stonesalot It always sounded to me like a pile of those songs were written to be played in big stadiums. I've seen the Stones play both Harlem Shuffle, and One Hit live. They both translate well to a big stage.

Has anyone else noticed that the Stones tend to write songs that they know will sound neat in a big stadium or arena? Like, You Got Me Rocking....you know, with the "Hey Hey" part. Or Out Of Control...or Saint Of Me. It's like they knew that they needed new stuff to play live, so they wrote some songs that are big stadium rock songs. Songs with easy shout along parts, songs with drum and bass breaks, all big stadium stuff.

I'll bet if they played some of the Dirty Work stuff live, it would come off really well.

Stiil, I think DW makes a better beer coaster than a Stones album.

Maxlugar Dirty Work is the dog in the park that makes all the other dogs roll over on their sides and stick their leg up.

Dirty Work is the Hells Angels biker making his way through a crowd of Flower Children with a crow bar.

Dirty Work is the fish in your tank that makes all the other fish bunch up in a corner.

Dirty Work is the Hawk circling above a meadow full of frightened Field Mice.

It sits back on it own balls and smiles.

And I love it.

MAXY!

Maxlugar Uh, excuse me but M. Lugars is a tan earned toiling in the hot sun.

Moving incredible amounts of bushes, trees and boulders in the hot early 80's sun.

T-shirt plastered to his young, toned teenage body by gallons of sweat!

This is not some tan earned by sitting in one of your pretty boy tanning machines!

Plus your Iranian blood doesn't hurt. It's really not fair Josh!

steel driving hammer Miami has a cheap offense but it works.

Oklahoma will destroy Miami's defense.

Saw Miami and Flordia St this Sat, great game.
