MikeyC613 What a kickass rock and roll song, great guitars, drumming, and outro, Mick's "I'm over with ya baby" is unbelievable. Steel Wheels actually kicked some ass, Sad Sad Sad is solid, so is Hearts For Sale, Slipping Away, Can't Be Seen, Break the Spell, Almost Hear You Sigh? Solid songwriting.

Ronnie Richards Hold on to Your Hat kicks ass.
The album does not.

Neocon I haven't listened to SW in years. I don't think it ages well. I think I liked HOTYH, ME, BTS, SSS, and SA.

I hated BBL, T, RAAHP, CBS and AHYS. In fact I stunned so many people seem to like AHYS. I thought at best it was dull.

I never thought a stone fan could feel that way about AHYS
Life is full of surprises

Steel Wheels does rock

Soldatti I don't like all that slick production, especially the drums and keyboards, but it's a good record.

Terrifying
Hold On To Your Hat
Hearts For Sale
Blinded By Love
Break The Spell

I give the album 6.5/10

Could have been much better. The slick production helps kill it along with the obvious rush job to get the product out. The tour was way more important and better than the album, but I feel the album does have a few gems. Hold On To Your Hat just sounds like filler to me...almost like Mick said "Alright we need another rocker" and the band just started playing fast rubbish. I mean, it's not HORRIBLE it's just not particularly good. Whereas something like Mixed Emotions, to me, is classic Stones weather it's one of your favorites or not.
