Not bad for a non scientific poll. The top six in any order is spot on. I'd go with 1-6 as is. The rest are below average or worse on an average album.
The above statements are the result of knowledge and insight developed from listening and living the Stones since day one. There's is no substitute for experience.[lol]

just a thought is all.....

Ah, ok. thought so.
And I firmly believe that if people were really honest, "Streets Of Love" would be up there as well.
Yeah, I said it.

In the January, 2007 issue of the Illinois Entertainer, there is the usual center 2 page ad for Rolling Stones Records. One of the coupon specials (still) advertised is "A Bigger Bang" for $3.99.
I guess they must be overstocked with it. |

The second hand stores are selling used copies of ABB for 5 bucks here, about 1/4 of the original price. The stores are saturated with them. |

Man, so people keep saying. It just seems like something out of the Twilight Zone. I've been a hater of this tune but an open mind is essential.
I'll try to track down a boot and hear it for myself.
If this is for real, it may just do my head in.
