Sticky Fingers

Better than the Let it Bleed. Started off strong. I thought that blues was a very American genre so it is very surprising listening to UK bands emulating the sound. Low 4.

I listened to this in the morning now it’s night and I’m eepy and dont remember my thoughts except for I think I thought 4

6/10 - Rolling Stones kinda boring. I really did not like you gotta move. I’ve heard wild horses before and it’s fine. Moonlight mile was probably my favorite song even thought it started pretty slow.

Love the stones. Some bangers on this one but a few were a little lackluster

Liked it more than other Rolling Stones albums we’ve had. Wild horses doesn’t feel like a song I should like, but I’ve always loved it. That song bumps the album up to a 4

Hell yeah. Brown Sugar ranks highly on the list of songs I may not be allowed to like anymore, right up there with Under My Thumb (wait are they all Stones songs?) Sway was fun!

Absolutely mid

Primera cancion, Brown Sugar, ritmica, pegadiza, muy stone, para bailar como el clasico rolinga. Me gusta. Sway es una cancion lenta pero poderoza, melancolica y cancionera. I got the blues - buen solo de teclado

9/10

it took me a bit to get over the lyrics of Brown Sugar, definitely a little on the problematic side. Yesterday I also learned that Wild Horses is a Rolling Stones song, I thought it was CSNY for some reason. I enjoyed Dead Flowers a lot, definitely felt the influence it had over Social Distortions work. Overall, I enjoyed it, but felt that there were too many solos that insisted upon themselves.

I've never gave The Rolling Stones a full album listen before, and I gotta say, I enjoyed this! I loved the guitar work. I 100% see their appeal and why they're given their acclaim. Some of the songs were meh, for example, You Gotta Move and honestly the rest of the album after that point. The album started off with great energy and after this point, it dies down. I can understand a song or two and spreading out the high energy songs, but it was just one after the other after the other and really brought down my overall appeal of the album. Overall though, better than I thought it was going to be

I forgot how fantastic this was. CAN'T YOU HEAR ME KNOCKING imo is one of the greatest rock n' roll songs created. Sticks to a formula that, unfortunately, isn't replicated often. Pure fun, for funs sake!!

Fun fact the whole reason I started this is because of this album. I was like damn I’ve never listened to a single Rolling Stones album and then I saw it was on the 1001 list and I was like shit I haven’t listened to a LOT of albums. Well here I am, 250 albums later. Anyway you don’t fucking care you don’t know me. I still don’t know how I should take Brown Sugar. Like. I’m not mad that Mick Jagger has a thing for black women. But why’s it gotta be about slavery in the start. And then young girl is VERY MUCH CLOSE to losing them a star. There’s some gold on here. There’s also some terrible British rock band thinks they can do the blues on here which is always fucking dreadful. Unlistenable.

This was a great album. But the experience of actually having sticky fingers? Horrible. I feel like I can't touch anything until I wash my hands. 0/5 experience, wouldn't recommend.

a good album, it's the Stones.

Among the very best rock records of all time.

More robust than I thought the Stones would be.

This wasn’t as good as Let It Bleed to me. The hits on this album (Brown Sugar, Wild Horses) aren’t really my favorites from the band. Can’t Hear You Knocking drags a little too long. And I can do without The Rolling Stones saying You Gotta Move ever again. Still, you can’t go wrong with The Rolling Stones, even if it isn’t peak. Favorite track: Wild Horses Other hits: Moonlight Mile, Bitch, Brown Sugar, Sway, Dead Flowers

Had not realised what a bell end Brian Jones was. Stones much better off without him. A class album. Possibly my favourite Stones album.

Dope

Why are his fingers sticky…..? Ew

Preferred first half over second half

Anytime you start track-one side-one of an album talking about having sex with black women and track- one side-two with the song simply called Bitch you know you either seriously don’t care or you’re looking for some shock value. It was 1971 after all. Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce you to Sticky Fingers. This is actually one of the best Stones albums. Throughout this album arestrong hits such as Brown Sugar, and Wild Horses, one of the slowest & most beautiful songs that the Stones had ever played. What I appreciate about this album though is it’s easy to forget that Keith Richards was more than just the inspiration for Jack Sparrow but instead was a phenomenal guitar player in his own right. This album truly shows his diversity from the soft ballads to the bluesy to the hard rocks. I think my favorite song this listen, and there has been many, was Moonlight Mile. I’ve listened to it before but something about it tonight really hit me. Overall this album is an absolute classic.

Can we still listen to Brown Sugar? Has it been cancelled? Regardless of the answers to those questions, it’s still rock n roll and I love it! What an absolute jam. Overall, this was a better Stones record than Beggars Banquet. Wild Horses is their best ballad. I really like Bitch. Dead Flowers was also a stand out track for me. I breezed through this album and will happily listen again.

another band i’ve yet to delve into but iconic nonetheless- white horse was my fav song, music insanely good and voice on par

Dommage que le 4,5 n'existe pas. Ça m'a fait découvrir de nouvelles chansons des stones ! Approuvé 😁

Très bon album ! Je n'ai pas beaucoup écouté les Stones, et ça me fait plaisir d'avoir pu écouter et apprécier un de leurs album. Wild Horses, Moonlight Mile, c'est vraiment pas mal.

7/10 I'm not a huge Rolling Stones fan but this is one of their best records hands down. I enjoyed listening to this. 12-11-2024

Based on my typical love for the 70s/80s I had high hopes for this album.

This really was a quite good album.

The fact I enjoyed this despite the lyrics of Brown Sugar really underlines how good it is.

That’s certainly one of the album covers of all time. That’s not one my lazy typos that elude me until these things are updated. It’s a bad stolen joke. Anyway. Let’s get the next train wreck on the tracks. Our First stop gets us to a song that regales us with the heartwarming tale of a slave ship captain who likes to have sex with black women. Music really is a beautiful expression of feeling isn’t it? What is a tent show queen? That’s probably also racist. This song stripped of lyrics is actually great, but I can’t abide by this whole er “package.” Sway was decent? I suppose. My 2024 brain has been broken. I can only imagine a drag queen with a speech impediment. Moving swiftly onward. Wild horses is bad country. I feel like I’ve heard this song covered a billion times. This one might be a cover for all I know but it’s the perfect song to cover for people on TikTok who can’t sing AND have no personality. Is this a good time to mention I’ve never really loved the Rolling Stones? I find them to be grating for the most part. During this pseudo-jazz breakdown in the middle of another boring song, I am feeling justified in that previous opinion. It’s fine. Like just in the middle fine. Alright. Jail song. This is either the entrance theme to hit movie “Holes,” or the ambient music from “Prison Tycoon.” Oh my god. Is Adam Sandler on vocals? This is his exact joke singing delivery. With what sounded like a barrage of insults. It’s not that bad. Probably the best so far, honestly. I hate the horns in this song, but the rest of it is pretty cool. Bitch, eh? This was probably pretty subversive for the day. Now all bets are off, but back then, between this album cover and a song called “Bitch,” some exorcists were definitely called. That’s a good thing in my book. This song is terrible. It’s Aerosmith with a slightly less obnoxious vocalist. The organ has a nice tone, but then that also veers this thing close to the riverboat casino territory. Bad song. Now I’ve got the blues. More white guy blues. Nothing going on here. Oh my god he’s trying to do American Country. Which from the era it’s worshipping, that would be good, but this has dumb piano parts. Saloon-core. Dreadful. Moonlight Mile is ok. I JUST WANT TO LIKE STUFF. I really don’t open these up with the intention of being an asshole. Am I too critical? Has my brain has been ruined by instant gratification loops perpetuated by society’s devolvement into a culture meant to extract maximal profit with minimal quality? Whatever the answers might be to my rhetorical questions, I didn’t enjoy this. Yet again. The instrumentation was bland, the vocals are too much or downright bad, but the songs are the big issue for me. The songs aren’t good. Structures were boring, instrument choices were bad. Attempts at melody come off hackneyed and depths below The Beatles or even the Beach Boys of a similar era. For what we lost in an enjoyable musical experience, we gained in world famous rapper “Sticky Fingaz”, who had a prominent feature on Eminem’s track “Remember Me.” So that really is something. 1.5-2 HIGHLIGHTS: You Gotta Move, Bitch (Not a demand)

Didn't enjoy this as much as some of their other albums, but it was still decent.

I liked Brown Sugar but the next few songs bored me and I stopped listening. I had planned on coming back and finishing it but the songs I did hear just weren’t good enough to give me the motivation to finish it. Would be a 2 but +1 for Brown Sugar and benefit of the doubt.

another Rolling Stones record and another meh review, it's not great but it's not awful, nothing to get excited about

Definitely not their best, not bad tho.

Love me some Stones!

Very good classic, I guess I have nothing more to say

I found some of this album to be charming, and then felt a bit indifferent towards it at times. I really liked Sister Morphine.

Rock with some brass, got very interesting songs

Bardzo amerykański album jak na londyński zespół. W sumie to ciekawe, że to Brytyjczycy stworzyli wizerunek rockmana, który obecnie głównie kojarzy się z kulturą amerykańską. Ale ten album jest bardzo mocno bluesowy, także tematycznie czerpie z tej kultury (np. Brown Sugar) i z amerykańskiej fascynacji motywem drogi (np. Moonlight Mile). Nawet okładka (jeansy i skórzany pasek - zaprojektowana przez Andy'ego Warhola) mocno akcentuje amerykańskie motywy (ale też jednocześnie je tworzy). Chłopaki bardzo mocno eksponują swój wizerunek bad boyów, mnóstwo piosenek nawiązuje do narkotyków i burzliwych relacji. Cały album jest bardzo "brudny" - zarówno w dźwięku instrumentów, jak i w wokalu oraz tekstach. Z drugiej strony czuć w nim pewnego rodzaju ciężar, to nie jest beztroski rock&roll. Instrumental z "Can't You Hear Me Knocking" bardzo spoko. "Sister Morphine" zapadło mi w pamięć. Mimo to raczej nie będę tęsknił za tym albumem, także spokojne, równe 3.

I actually thought i should like it more. It was supposed to be for me, all moody and drug-influenced. But on the other hand it seems rather safe and lacking in energy. Should be a 5. I hope that those junkie-grandpas are doing more suitable drugs for them. I highly recommend cocaine for them.

Obawiałem się tej Stonesów, ale o dziwo ta płyta siadła (przy drugim przesłuchaniu). Przyjemnie mi się słuchało, podobał mi się wokal Jaggera i dłuższe wstawki instrumentalne w utworach. Jest jakaś różnorodność, od rzewnych ballad do "ostrzejszych" rockowych nutek. Złapałem się na tym, że mimowolnie podryguję, daję się wciągnąć. Płyta mimo to niczym szczególnie mnie nie zachwyciła. Po prostu, fajna. 3,5/5

my grandpa's company manufactured the zippers on the original album cover

Started out really strong and the second half was just okay. I enjoyed the classic rock vibes and bluesy riffs mixed in. I would listen to this again. Favorite songs were: Brown Sugar Wild Horses 7/10

This is my first time listening to a Rolling Stones album. They're a lot more "Rock 'n' Roll" than the Beatles are, despite being part of that same "British Invasion" time period. A lot of the sound on this albums feels played out and same-old, although it is good. It's not their fault that they influenced so many bands, but it does make it hard for me to show up to their album 'fresh'. "Bitch" is the first song I really like. I love the horns. The album started a lot more rock focused but turned into too many slow and a little boring songs. This didn't really do it for me. 6/10

Enjoyed this. Highlights, aside from the hits, are Dead Flowers & Moonlight Mile.

Just an incredible selection of songs. Sure, it’s no Beggar’s Banquet nor Exile, but still the work of an amazing band in their prime.

Pretty good. Wish more of the songs were like Brown Sugar. EDIT: Ok I underrated this. It's a banger album.

If I'm going to listen to The Rolling Stones, this is the album I'd listen to. That said, I don't particularly ever want to listen to it.

As i have stated before, the stones are great, but not COMPLETELY for me. This is significantly better than the other album i listened to and stays in a really groovy atmosphere that is best listened to by a certain genre of dad - just not mine ! 1. wild horses 2. i got the blues 3. dead flowers

The album cover is just fucking rank isnt it

another album i'm familiar with but had never listened to in full lovely sunday evening listen, will be coming back to this one but it's still not my favourite stones record (despite wild horses being my favourite song of theirs) best song: wild horses worst song: n/a

I'm not been a big fan of the Stones over the years, and especially not the deep cuts on their albums. The local radio stations here have always over played them. I've enjoyed some of their recent albums, which even surprised myself! Anywho....Can't you hear me knockin is one of my fav all times songs. Must be my satin shoes and cocaine eyes??

One of the best Stones albums. Sticky Fingers is less in your face than some of their work. Blues, country, rock, it’s all there. Dead Flowers is probably only second to Loving Cup.

I always knew the band, but I never knew their music. I’m glad I finally got a chance to explore a record by them. It’s a solid rock album overall, but admittedly some songs feel like they meander for a bit. I think they’re a good band, but I wouldn’t say they’re “the greatest rock band of all time” good, as many critics and magazines claim. Though, this record is the only reference I have for the band, so who knows, maybe they have another record on this list that changes my mind? Favorite track: Wild Horses

A lot of great tracks but a decent amount of filler holds it back from a five star rating.

I was not expecting to like this album this much. It’s bluesy without being self indulgent, and every song has something special. Gosh and I forgot how much I liked Moonlight Mile! What a great album I’m glad I heard it in its entirety before I died.

Yeah, it's mid. There's not really much to say about this that hasn't been said.

I would have loved all of the songs on the deluxe album if I was 17 again

great album, they're really growing on me, despite their rolling nature

Crazy how much the opening riff in 'Brown Sugar' just sounds like a chopped up 'Start me up' riff, almost feels similar close to me. Overall I think this was a decent record with some songs that were better, and some songs that were not as good perhaps. I don't feel like I'm swaying in any direction, it's pretty much dead in the middle for me. Pretty much "meats and potatoes" rock I would say. 'Wild Horses' was probably my favourite track.

As with previous albums by "The stones" i find their albums kind of lacking. They have some really good songs, on this one "Wild Horses" is a clear 5 star song. But you can always cherry pick a few songs and leave the rest. Most songs are just very standard rhythm and blues rock. I realized I've never really listened to the lyrics of "Brown Sugar" but um yeah that first verse is way, way, worse than I could imagine. Yikes. The riffs is still really good though. Towards the tail-end the ballads were actually quite decent and a nice change of pace. More 3 stars for rolling stones, if only they could merge 2 albums in to one it would warrant a 4 or even 5 star album.

What a colourful work of art this is ... I know I've dreamed you A sin and a lie I have my freedom But I don't have much time Faith has been broken Tears must be cried Let's do some living After we die. And then there's I Got the Blues: In the silk sheet of time I will find peace of mind Love is a bed full of blues. It's one of those albums where you can feel the creativity growing from bare ground - every piece of weather important to the garden it creates. Didn't enjoy every track ... but Moonlight Mile grabbed another star, right at the end.

Well this is why the album generator is great. I came to this with the preconception that the best two tracks would be 'Brown Sugar' and 'Wild Horses' and that the rest of the album would be made up of similar but inferior typical Stones tracks. I was so wrong, my preconception was a misconception! It starts with one of THE classic riffs, Keith doing what he did best. The lyrics are questionable but there's no denying it's a fantastic track. Charlie plays his part, driving it along, full of rhythm. He underpins the whole album so brilliantly, never flashy but always nails it. 2 minutes 45 seconds into 'Can't You Hear Me Knocking' was when the album changed for me, it goes from a decent rocker into the most sublime 5 minute jam, suddenly we're elevated into different musical territory! Mick Taylor plays his part but it's not just his guitar, there so much depth and texture throughout the album. 'I Got The Blues' is great, no doubt influenced by Otis Redding. 'Sister Morphine' and "Dead Flowers' are so good, two druggy songs but completely different styles. 'Moonlight Mile' is a beautiful closer, so rich, taking their sound to places I never expected. I've listen to this so much in the last few days. I thought I knew the Stones, but that was only from their singles, I didn't think there was much more to them. How stupid was I?!! It's pushing a 5 but for me is just let down by a couple of weaker tracks in the middle. But this is still a great listen and I'll keep coming back to it for the tracks I mentioned.

Rock and roll! This album actually gets better the further in you go. Some awesome solos and an even better general noise. Loved the inclusion of organs and keys. A proper classic and lived up better to what I hoped for from the first Stones album on this list.

Not bad music but it didn’t do much for me.

IMHO 2 of the best Stones songs on this album.

The first half of the album (I guess the A side of the LP) is very good; "Can't You Hear Me Knocking?" 🤯 But the second half is much more bland, definitely OK songs, but nothing very interesting.

Fun music but I've never been a fan.

I'm not a fan of the Stones. I've found myself sneering in mind when I encounter them. Poncy arrogant rockstars, all glam and no substance. Maraccas and Parodies on the 'Kenny Everett Video Cassette' show. What's to enjoy? It's just not my energy. But ... Yeah, it's got something for me now and I'm enjoying listening. 4 stars.

It has some of the greatest moments the Rolling Stones ever created making it an essential part of their discography.

Boring album with one good track. Most songs made with basics music terms of 60s. Albums sounds like it's released in 60s? but not in 1971. 5/10

Before listening to this album, I had never considered myself a Stones fan ... and I still don't. I don't hate any of their music and I don't love any of it. This album has a few nice moments, but the issue is that Mick Jagger has no singing ability at all. It's honestly extremely impressive how successful he has been in spite of that.

Wild Horses is in the running for best song of all time. Can’t You Hear Me Knocking is in the running for best guitar riff of all time. Moonlight Mile - pretty sure it’s the best album closer of all time. I dunno if I’ve ever listened to this record front to back but it might be my favorite Stones album now that I have.

Fantastic album that fell short of a 5 with the last few songs. 4/5

Brown Sugar - 4/5 Sway - 3/5 Wild horses - 5/5 Can't You Hear Me Knocking - 4/5 class but slowed down a bit by 4 minute instrumental You Gotta Move - 3/5 Bitch - 2/5 I Got the Blues - 3/5 Sister Morphine - 3/5 Dead Flowers - 2/5 Moonlight Miles - 3/5

Singles are huge, the rest is just dull and uninspiring

3.5

4.5/5

It opens with the poorly aged Brown Sugar. Sigh, we can get our exoticism and creeping on young girls out of the way right off the bat. Sway had good sound but damn, Mick has an awful voice. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. It also doesn’t work in Wild Horses. I have never liked this song. You Got to Move was actually painful to listen to. Can’t Hear Me Knocking was mid but not terrible. I was a little worried when I saw the track name for Bitch, but it was actually fun. I’ve Got the Blues was a pleasant surprise, too. I think this track is really helped by strong instrumentals. Sister Morphine, Dead Flowers were ok. Moonlight Mile finished the album strong. The second half of this album definitely improves. This was much better than the other Stones album I’ve gotten on this list. I’ll give it a 3.

FTRS

I will never understand what is supposed to make The Rolling Stones stand out in the endless sea of 60s/70s hard rock. The vocals are generic, the guitar playing is generic, the drums are generic, the songwriting is generic. Feels like a band that should have had like 1 mildly successful album, then faded into the mist. Kinda fucking hate this weird mix of hard rock and country. You're British, Sir Michael Philip Jagger, you are NOT "rootin'-tootin'".

It's the stones, sounds like the stones.

A classic. Doesn't get much better than this

This was a solid release for The Rolling Stones. It’s a great blend of their earlier hard rock and blues rock, with some folk and country influences mixed in. The production is polished in some ways but still has a raw, gritty edge that brings out the stripped-down essence of rock and blues. The use of piano and saxophone is another standout feature, adding a soulful, laid-back feel to the album.

Very solid rock record

It’s a Stones album, so it’s pretty good, but it’s no Beggars Banquet.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ idk not for me some whacky songs like sister morphine

The roots of the Stones, bluesy and still filled with hits.

I don't want to give it a high score, but I caught myself jamming out to it repeatedly. And I have a really good Rolling Stones concert story, so I give the old fuckers a break.

If you could only listen to a single Stones album, it might as well be this. Quintessential.

"Brown Sugar" and "Wild Horses" would be enough to make this any other band's best album

In my opinion, the best Stones album. The run of Brown Sugar to Can’t You Hear Me Knocking may be the best ever four song start to a rock album. Ending with Dead Flowers and Moonlight Mile? Perfection.

Stony classics.

Brown Sugar // Wild Horses // Can’t You Hear Me Knocking // I Got The Blues // Sister Morphine 4.5/5

Peak stones

I don't like the Rolling Stones

BOOOOOOO I HATE ROLLIG STPOE

One rarely listens to a whole stones record. There's are free stones record worth listening to. Love Jagger. They don't make complete albums like the Beatles

Brown Sugar is gross, the rest is fine I guess. Would prefer to listen to blues. Not bad, not great.

Not for me

Never really been a big fan of the Stones. Undecided on how to score this. Half the songs are a four but the rest are ones and twos.

out of all the rolling stones i’ve heard, this is probably one of my favourite ones, really good

The Stones at their best in my opinion. Great range of songs from ballads, to blues tracks, to straight fucking rockers.

I try my best to respect the Rolling Stones, but with each album I fail to see more and more what exactly this band did that was so amazing. At this point multiple other bands had done the "British band likes American rock" schtick better, and that leaves this apparently "iconic album" to be one of the Stones' weakest so far, only because it lacks that absolutely iconic hit each album had for the sake of a few okay ones. It just doesn't spark intrigue. I'm sure this makes it clear I prefer the Beatles in that debate, but frankly the two aren't even comparable.

Enjoyed. Bluesy

I appreciate The Stones, and this album in particular. No wall of sound effort, stripped down to basic R&R (ok, blues).

Heard it about three times in the past four year— still mostly rubbish in my opinion. 1001Albums should've included "Between The Buttons" instead (I I know it sounds like an attempt to emulate The Kinks, but it actually demonstrates how poor The Stones were in their own genre.)

This album is fantastic. So many classics and no duds. The Stones at their best? I think probably. What’s wrong with it? Nothing. It’s great. 5/5

I always thought of Rolling Stones as a simple rock band but this album definitely stretches out what they could do. Lots of good heartfelt ballads mixed in with rock and roll. Good album.

This is pretty great. A lot of noodling that I probably wouldn't appreciate in a full-on jazz record, but the bluesy style saves it for me. Nice.

They’re one of the most famous bands of all time for a reason. Wild Horses is arguably a top 25 song of all time.

Rating: 10/10 Masterpiece, one of the greatest albums of all time and probably the Rolling Stones' best work. A true culmination of the band's best elements, this album has incredibly groovy blues rock songs and slower emotional ballads that are all stellar. A true classic. Favorite songs: pretty much all of them. Worst song: You Gotta Move.

Listened Before? N Another classic rock... well... classic. This one was very good from beginning to end. Not much else to say. Added to Library: N Songs added to playlist: Can't You Hear Me Knocking

This record is just amazing. Love the whole atmosphere, sounds and guitar riffs / solos. Would listen to this again and again.

Um Yeah alright blues rock, beatles better

Decent but will not revisit.

This album could consist of only the opening guitar riff from Cant You Hear me Knocking followed by Alvin and The chipmunks singing Baby Shark on repeat and I would still have a hard time giving anything less than 5 stars.

So many albums of Brits trying to be Southern bluesmen so far but they definitely pull it off better than Led Zeppelin . Still, some great hits here and rhythm guitar tracks that I never really listened to before.

Never really listened to the Stones, realizing now I don't care about Mick Jagger

Sticky Fingers is the Rolling Stones' ninth studio album, and is regarded by many as their best work. This was their first studio album without Brian Jones, and with Mick Taylor, who has joined the band for their previous release, the live album "Get your Ya-Yas Out." This album is of impressive range, in part due to a number of guests on the recording. The album includes ballads, like "Wild Horses," and chart-topping rockers, like "Brown Sugar." The band still embraced their reputation as the "bad-boys" of rock, see "Bitch," and their early, blues-based recording, like "I got the Blues." In addition to the famous tracks, there are the surprises in the deeper cuts, like "Moonlight Mile." This range is one of the arguments supporting the band's claim to be the world's greatest rock & roll band.

Objectively perhaps their best. I’m more likely to listen to Some Girls if both are in front of me, but I recognize that this album as a whole is better overall.

Solid Stones

Like all Stones albums, this has a couple of really great rockers (Brown Sugar, Dead Flowers) and a nice ballad (Wild Horses), while the rest is horrible blues and country. This one is the best out of the 3 albums I’ve listened to yet, though.

Has a few good songs. Most didn’t do anything for me.

Solid Rolling Stones - excellent

Starkes Album von den Stones. Ich habe leider nur die CD und nicht die Platte mit dem legendären Reißverschluss-Cover

Who doesn't love the Rolling Stones!

The bangers really carried this album in my opinion.

Loved it

Has my favorite Stones song on it. Wild Horses. Love this album

This is more of a mix than I had anticipated, and while I think I've listened to some other albums around this era of the Stones (Let it Bleed, Hot Rocks), I don't think I've given this one a full listen. Can't You Hear Me Knocking lost me a bit, but Bitch brought it back around. Overall, a good listen.

No frills, straight forward rock and blues. Exactly what I expected from this era of the Stones.

Not a bad song here

Overall this is the best Rolling Stones album, in my opinion.

From the first couple moments of the album, you can tell that it's going to be a good one. It is a bit top heavy, imo, but the variation in style from song to song helps keep everything interesting and keeps the listener invested and engaged. My only real complaint is about the singing. They're not able to change the vocal style at all when the rest of the band does. So, there's a few songs where the raspy rock singing just doesn't really fit. It does work well for a lot of the songs, though. Favorite Song(s): Brown Sugar, I Got the Blues

The best Stones album, maybe. Between this and Exile you can’t go wrong.

Real variety in sounds and style across the tracks, with some great instrumentation choices. Strong blues, soul, and country influences throughout give it cohesion.

Superb. “Moonlight Mile” is one of my favourite Rolling Stones songs. I wasn’t familiar with the album, but I loved every track.

It's the Rolling stones what do you expect? Personally not this! I had been told that they started out life as a blues band but this was not really bourn out by their famous tracks, and I had never been inspired enough to listen to a whole album before. I was pleasantly surprised by how bluesy they were and I enjoyed it. But was I inspired enough to say I'd buy it, no I wasn't. Being the Stones I almost feel I have to give it a 4, but does it really deserve one, no it doesn't but it is worth a 3.

Some classic tracks on here but the album is spoilt by Jagger trying to do some parody Country and Western vocals on too many tracks. It was a parody right?

The most constistant Stones album so far on this list. So far the only one I enjoyed without wanting to skip tracks. 'Brown Sugar' has always been a song which I enjoy and used to enjoy when my Dad played it too.

Enjoyed this

Another album where the only available streaming version is an unpopular remaster. All tracks except Brown Sugar are labeled (2009 Mix) so we're listening to a remixed version, different from what put it on this list. Bah!

It's fine. I've never been super into the Rolling Stones. Brown Sugar has aged badly and most of the other songs were not that memorable but it wasn't a bad listen. 6/10

04/10/24 Not a bad album.

great album

Not the biggest fan 3/5

Some decent songs but didn’t hook me

"Sticky Fingers" by The Rolling Stones delivers great guitar work and sweeping rhythms that capture the band's iconic sound. While musically impressive, with tracks like "Brown Sugar" and "Wild Horses" showcasing their blend of rock and blues, the lyrics often veer into strange territory, which may alienate some listeners. Despite its historical significance in rock music, it’s not entirely my cup of tea, leaving me with a mixed impression. I’d give it a solid 3/5 for the musical elements, though the lyrical content falls short for me.

cool

Kinda just Rolling Stones to me

Not a huge Stones fan, but there were some good ones in there.

I mean yes, fuck. If rocks. Great album. -1 for overplaying because I’m petty.

classic for a reason

++: Brown Sugar, Sway, Can't You Heart Me Knocking, Sister Morphine, Dead Flowers +: You Gotta Move, Bitch, I Got the Blues, Moonlight Mile +-: Wild Horses 9,0/10

Cool

Almost finished the album but was always going to give it a 5. Dad was saying that more a collection of great singles than album but I don't think that really matters. Brown sugar, wild horses, sister morphine, dead flowers and moonlight mile are top tier. 4.7 rounded up.

Unreal

This album was ok. Some of the songs were fairly good, and some were forgettable and uninteresting. All together below average. 2.4/5 -> 2/5

Classic stones, some great tracks, what's not to like?

Gran disco

i cannot believe dead flowers is a stones song. townes did it better

It's got some hits, and for good reason. But they're clearly not an album band. This one works better than most Stones albums, but I do get the distinct feeling of when they wrote a "song" and when they wrote an "album filler." I don't know how to judge projects like this, but the hits are good, so I guess a three?

A while ago I got an earlier Stones album and they improved like crazy. The songs have more depth and the entire album is better quality. I finally understand why people like this band.

A well-known Stones album. However, in my opinion it is not particularly successful. It seems kind of irrelevant to me. The story behind the cover is the most interesting thing about it. 3/5

I just don't like the rolling stones. I gave each song a quick listen and found them dull.

it's the stones, rocks for sure

Timeless!

Brown Sugar - Nice Instrumentals, cool intro to the album I can see why its the most listened song in this LP according to spotify, one bad thing about it though is the trumpets in the end sound really off and theyre quite annoying (could be my shitty headphones) Sway - Love the guitar, seems like the instrumentals are always on point, would love for the vocals to be a little louder, could use some better songwriting but the guitar hooks you into the track so its fine. Wild Horses - Again the guitar/instrumentals are the highlights of this track, Sonically sounds really good very nice performance, again i wish the vocals were louder and not so quieted down. Cant You Hear Me Knocking - Okay now I understand this album isnt meant to be about lyrics as much as it is for the instrumentals You Gotta Move - I swear this is a famous meme, like one of those racist ones LOL. *Abdi ate the Nutella* Bitch - Same thing with the instrumentals and stuff dont wanna repeat myself I Got The Blues - Really good track stands out from the rest with its slower pace, seems like this is the theme of the 2nd half of the LP. Sister Morphine - Oh yeah I prefer the 2nd half of this album way more, Dead Flowers - Yeah the whole thematic of the album went over my head till like the 6th track, this track in particular has Americana written all over it. I KNOWW YOURE THE QUEEN OF THE UNDERGROUUUNDDD Moonlight Mile - A decent send off track, my right ear enjoyed that intro. Overall: This album clearly captures the blues and the soul concept more into the 2nd half which is in my opinion the better part of the album. On a second listen i kinda realised the "lower" volume of the vocal is actually a sylistical choice now and it really makes sense. Ending notes: My fav tracks are I Got The Blues, Sister Morphine, Dead Flowers, Wild Horses and Cant You Hear Me Knocking. Will it be a re-listen in the future? Im not really sure but it was a nice album to listen to. Final Score: 3.5/5 P.S I feel like any of these songs belongs to one of those GTA San Andreas radio stations

very interesting topic to start an album off with i rate the choice of making almost 5 minutes of your 7 minute song purely an instrumental found it kinda hard to enjoy some of the slower songs compared to the faster ones though (based on the spotify plays that seems to be a more popular opinion though) - but i enjoyed moonlight mile so maybe it was just the specific songs i didnt enjoy happened to be slow as a jojo's bizarre adventure fan I am disappointed

Both a fun and a heavy album, pairs well with a couple of cigarettes

Pretty good, had heard most of it as a kid growing up.

Great

While the album cover may be iconic, I'm not a big. I am, however, a big fan of this album. So many bangers it's hard to imagine where Martin Scorsese's career would be without the impactful tunes of "Can't You Hear Me Knocking" and "Bitch." Then add combo the iconic "Brown Sugar," and "Wild Horses," you just can't really argue that this could easily be their best studio album. Absolutely incredible.

Now this is why people must like the Stones so much. Good overall blues and rock album

a little repititative

72% Best: Can't You Hear Me Knocking; Bitch Must-Hear? Slightly overrated imo, so no

Probably there best album. Very enjoyable

Best overall Stones album I’ve gotten so far, yet still confirms my opinion that they are a singles band. Only the hits are good.

Woaw

Brown Sugar and Can't You Hear Me Knocking are classics. Hadn't heard Wild Horses by them, only a cover (but I didn't realize it was a cover). Really liked the song! Overall a little better than I was anticipating since I'm not a huge Stones fan.

Very good, one of the classics.

Pretty awesome, can’t you hear me knocking is the bees knees.

Two Rolling Stones in a row. Nothing on Let It Bleed in my eyes. Wild Horses is an absolute classic though.

I’ve never been a big Stones fan, but I appreciate how great this album is. Probably an unpopular opinion, but the ballads take me out of it even though the sequencing is good.

Really enjoyed it

From the first opening guitar notes it’s still unmistakably classic stones. Any album with wild horses and sister morphine is worth the listen. The production of the era of a what blows me away the most, the space in the mix and the mostly live nature of the recording make for a visceral experience. This album seems to be an inflection point between their signature brit r&b and country influences, which mostly work great but dead flowers is song I never need to hear again.

I have loved this album since forever ♥️♥️♥️

There’s a reason the majority of the songs on this album are all time classics. Bitch and Can’t You Hear Me Knocking are standouts. Moonlight Mile is a lush & soulful closer. Brown Sugar is a victim of cancel culture but the times they are a-changin’

I love Wild Horses. Good album. It stricks a lot of different moods.

Side one is as rip roaring as the Rolling Stones get. Side two slows things down a bit. But there's no fat here at all. As consistent as any Stones album with some outright gems in both the rager and ballad camps.

Maybe I'm just super lucky because I've had a good run with albums so far. This was great (as to be expected), I love The Rolling Stones. Wild Horses was probably my favourite track on the album. Brown Sugar sent me down a rabbit hole of trying to figure out if Foreigner sampled Brown Sugar for their track Hot Blooded which was fun (couldn't find anything concrete so jury's still out). Overall I think it was just fantatsic, the album was cohesive, had me bopping along, and I can't fault it. That being said, I don't think I was in love with it enough to give it a 5/5.

Classic album with a great range of tracks what a rythym section

aka The Acclaimed Album that does not have the bulk of their biggest hits but is certainly the fan and critical darling.

Really liked this album! Had not listened to in full prior to this and I am glad that I have now

It doesn’t may if you like the Stones or not, if you even kind of enjoy Rock and Roll, this album is a classic. So many absolute beasts of songs.

Man, the Stones really were unstoppable from 1968-1972. They weren't shy of exploring various flavours of rock, country, blues, and more, but the balancing act was absolutely perfect on this album. All members are in fine form and more than half the album is A-tier or above. Consider the sheer hookiness of 'Brown Sugar'. The understated beauty of 'Wild Horses'. The unique and epic jamming on Can't You Hear Me 'Knocking'. Their now-honed-and-perfected authentic country-roots sound on 'Dead Flowers'. The swagger (and killer horn session) of 'Bitch'. The hauntingly melancholy of 'Sister Morphine'. The beautiful introspection and strings on 'Moonlight Mile'. The sleazy cover of 'You Gotta Move' is probably the only weaker track that isn't great in isolation, but as an interlude closing out side A it works great in context. On it's own I don't know how to give it anything but top marks. But in the context of the albums on either side of it, it also firmly makes the case for The Rolling Stones to have one of the best four-album runs in music history.

Classic Stones.

Very hard hitting guitars and I def hear the blues influence a lot. Unexpectedly jazzy at times

Odio a los stones

Alveg 5 stjörnu plata. Klassik.

I like playing Wild Horses on my acoustic guitar

Brown sugar. That guitar riff. Amazing song. I love everything about it. Jaggers swagger really coming through on the vocals. Wild horses is tragically good. Love the melody and how this one moves. Cant you hear me knocking. That riff. Makes you want to get out your air guitar. Love it. Richards smashes this track. but damn son, that sax solo - Quality. Followed by the very bluesy solo. Absolutely banging tune. loved bitch. got a real set of balls to it. Then i loved how i got the blues slows this record down. Moving into sister morphine very nicely. The guitar on this track is great. Dead flowers is a belter. Take me down little suzie!! Cracker. But what a way to finish the album. Keeping with those slow soothing melodies in the last few tracks. Moonlight mile is so good. Bravo. A classic for me.

An enjoyable, strong album that doesn't seem to miss a beat. It feels quite timeless for the most part, though it does show its age at points as well. Wild Horses is my favourite from the album.

Old classic

God-tier album.

This album is a classic, and I’ve listened to it many times. I’ve always felt like the Stones tilted towards country on this album, which worked well for them. But it’s not as consistently successful as Exile. I listened with more critical ears today. Brown Sugar unnecessarily glorifies slavery and rape, Can’t You Hear Me Knocking is unmelodic and goes on for way too long, I Got the Blues is boring, and Sister Morphine drags. Wild Horses is one of the best Stones songs ever— it stands out as an intimate, reflective track with perfect timing. And Moonlight Mile is a satisfying way to end the album.

Generic rock but not bad

Just good old fashioned bluesy rock n roll. I love it when it's good and timeless

After the past week and getting back from Mexico, I needed a 5/5 album to kick off my first day back at work, and Sticky Fingers by The Rolling Stones delivered exactly that. What a way to open with Brown Sugar. That riff is unforgettable. Wild Horses is one of my all-time favourite songs, and Sister Morphine is seriously underrated. The album is full of standout moments and that classic Stones swagger, making it a top-tier record from start to finish. Favourite track: Wild Horses, emotional, timeless, and beautifully written Least favourite tracks: None, every track earns its place Album artwork: An iconic cover that’s as bold as the music A true classic and exactly what I needed

classic stones, easy listening

Mi disco favorito de los Stones. No sé si objetivamente será el mejor, pero es el que (valga la redundancia) objetivamente disfruto más. Todas las canciones tienen una producción espectacular y se extienden de formas creativas con un sonido único que sólamente podría emanar de unos Rolling Stones ya maduros. Mis canciones favoritas del trabajo son "Bitch" y "Can you hear me knocking". Antes, como fiel fanático de The Beatles, no me gustaban los Stones; hasta que un amigo me recomendó este LP y cambié de parecer totalmente, así que encuentro que es una buena partida para cualquiera que se quiera meter a la discografía de los legendarios rockeros. Por favor escuchar, un esencial del imaginario musical inglés y mundial.

started off on a high note with the guitar riff. I love the usage of playing music through one headphone rhen slowly adding a couple notes through the other headphone.

Great album

could i write poetry to this? y

Cool

A solid album - worth a listen

There are some classics and some songs that are just ok. I do enjoy when the Stones do country.

You can never go wrong with some classic Stones.

A pretty decent record. The Stones can get a bit cheesy for me, but this one has a bit more sincerity that I think gives it more power. I love Drive-by Truckers and I never realized how much they were influenced by the Stones. Sway could straight up be a DBT song. They still lose me on some of the straightforward boring blues rock, but overall I enjoyed it.

Discazo. Arranca arriba con Azúcar marrón. Muy buenas las menos conocidas Sway y Can't you hear me... Sumados los ya clásicos Wild houses y You gotta Move que corresponden con estilos bien distintos. De las siguientes a mi me destaca Sister morphine. Y Dead flowers es una canción que tiene que tener todo lo que tiene que tener, estribillo, interpretación, vocalización. Claramente, un gran disco de principio a fin

The soundtrack to every Martin Scorsese film. In all seriousness, this is such amazing piece of art from start to finish which ends with one of my favorite Stones songs - Moonlight Mile. 5/5

some songs are really good like wild horses

This was my first Rolling Stones album in this project and it was a great one. “Wild horses” This is blues rock and roll at its finest.

Favorite track: Sister Morphine

Before listening, the only thing I knew about this album was the fun sleeve with a working zipper. After listening I think this album is pretty fun. It's not the same style of song all the way through which keeps it fresh. I'm rounding up from 3.5 because I'm not sold on the vocals.

Amazing Exciting, corrupt, tuneful.

Great album!

Is this their best known album? I don't keep track of these stones as they roll. This might be my favorite of their albums (though I can't confirm not seeing my other ratings). Regardless, felt like a great rock/blues album. Brown Sugar, Wild Horses, and Can't You Hear Me Knocking were all keepers. Hopefully this is the last stones album. At this point with so little albums left the variety has to be there now that we have moved past so many of these.

Been waiting on this one, Stones albums are always welcome for me though mileage may vary. Exile on Main St, often heralded as their best, was our first, and it was a bit of a dud for me. This one might actually be my favorite, at least of those we've heard in this process. This one incorporates the blues, similar to what they were doing on Exile, but with the addition of some actual classic songs. "Brown Sugar" and "Can't You Hear Me Knocking" are both bangers I've heard before, and the deeper cuts on here are great too, including the bluesy explorations. I think we could probably cut one or two Stones albums from this list, but certainly not this one, I'm giving this the crown. Just a really strong, hearty blues-rock album, and yeah, where Exile lacked hits, this one does not. Excellent work from Mick and the gang. Favorite tracks: Brown Sugar, Can't You Hear Me Knocking, Wild Hordes, I Got the Blues, Bitch, Dead Flowers. Album art: A dangerous close-up on a pair of jeans. There looks to be something in this guy's right pocket, PLEASE tell me there's something in his right pocket. It's an iconic cover, sure, but best Stones cover for me has to be Let It Bleed. 4.5/5

Went in expecting just a really great rock and roll record, but in truth, it's just so much more. So many different genres were explored here. Strong songwriting and great vocals from Mick and the band sound more cohesive here than I've really ever heard previously from a Rolling Stones record. It's far from a perfect album though, You Gotta Move is a huge stinker among the great songs here. Besides the weaker stuff, it's genuinely really great and deserves the praise and attention it receives.

classic, but not quite as good as its reputation might suggest. Wild horses is an all time great, Brown sugar is probably problematic nowadays (but good if you ignore that), can't you hear me knocking is pretty good (if too long), rest of it could be considered filler. Blues influence is clear (at least compared with what the Stone became)

This is my favourite Stones album - although their run of albums from the late 60’s to early 70’s all make good candidates. There are some songs on here that remind me a little of Guns N Roses on their Use Your Illusion I - I know, controversial

I liked a few of the songs. The rest were extremely medium

My old boss gave me the original album with the working Zipper.... and I don't think really appreciated the stones till much later in life.... Wild horses and brown sugar two of my favorite tracks from the stones... I appreciate them so much more now than 50 years ago... that album sadly is not with me any more.

This is an album of 2 parts. The first 5 songs are fantastic. Great variation, and really the Stones at some of their best. But man the second half of this album is snoozy. Shame it couldn't have just been a slightly long EP.

I hate the name of this album but I enjoy it otherwise

Block 15 Sticky Fingers is the best beer

You can see why they got so famous. Not a lot of edge, compared to modern music. But you can tell how they where cutting edge for their time.

Raw, energetic, brilliant

bom

I expected everything on this album to sound very much in the same vain as Brown Sugar, but was pleasantly surprised by how much the Rolling Stones step into different genres. When I think of the Rolling Stones, I reactively think, “That rock and roll band where all the members are around 400 years old.” However, I’m realising that simply calling them a rock and roll band diminishes their other tracks that don’t step much into this genre, and are still pretty good. Glad I listened to this in full, but not happy that I read the album name.

3☆/5 08.07.2024

Another classic album, one of the best by the Stones in my opinion. It definitely deserves to be on this list.

Not my favorite from the Stones, but still pretty good

Very good album. Sometimes the lyrics is kinda bad and not that much into the Rolling Stones. But this is probably their best album

Felt unique.

This was good. Weird album cover though

I am generally a fan of the Stones, though I'm not as rabid as others, and prefer The Who and Led Zep among their contemporaries. This is a good record, with several classics, but is not a great record. As with many of their albums, there is definitely filler.

01) Brown Sugar - 10,0 02) Sway - 8,0 03) Wild Horses - 10,0 04) Can't You Hear Me Knocking - 8,0 05) You Gotta Move - 8,0 06) Bitch - 8,5 07) I Got the Blues - 8,0 08) Sister Morphine - 8,5 09) Dead Flowers - 8,5 10) Moonlight Mile - 8,0 TOTAL: 8,55 (86/100) Current ranking: 52/264

Amazing album. I listened to every song and enjoyed every single one of them.

This is the only Rolling Stones album I've ever heard - and it's my second time hearing it. I've always found this album oddly catchy, especially with the songs 'Sway' and 'Wild Horses', the latter of which is a blatant country rock track ... not a genre I previously associated the Stones with. They pull it off quite well though and it ends up being my favorite song here - it's a very summery, vibrant, and open track, very nicely capturing this idea of a horse running free. More than anything, I respect how eclectic this album can be - with the song 'Can't You Hear Me Knocking' drawing from the worlds of psychedelic, Krautrock, and jazz fusion popular at the time. 'Bitch' carries that gritty weight I was expecting out of the Rolling Stones with an absolutely killer bassline, driving riff, and horn section. 'Sister Morphine' is another one of my favorite songs here, it's a tragic, hazy tale about drug addiction that's delivered over one of the more somber acoustic and western-sounding pieces of instrumentation. The album's drug-related themes come to a head on this one track, it's quite climactic and cinematic in that sense. I feel like this is an unconventional RS album, though I haven't heard enough of their music to make that assertion. Either way, it's a collection of some damn great early 70s songs with impeccable production value.

This album didn’t wow me but has some great moments for sure. The hits are absolutely the strongest tunes, while the rest don’t do much for me.

Beatles > Stones. I think there is one good song here. It's not fun to listen too for me.

Favorite Stones album that I have gotten on this list so far. Can you hear me knockin is probably my favorite Stones song. The album lingers a bit and is a lot slower/bluesy? than the others I have heard. Solid listen even if it overstays its welcome a bit. 7/10

Yet another Rolling Stones. This one's actually pretty good!

Still have the vinyl & it still gets a 5.

Classic with 3-4 absolute classics, plus 3-4 fringe classics along with a couple of countryfied tracks, solid top to bottom

not a huge stones fan but ok album i guess

This album is already on my personal list of top 20 or so albums, so no surprises here. But always good to go back and revisit a familiar favorite. Moonlight Mile is one of my all-time favorite songs. 🎶”I got silence on my radio. Let the air waves flow. Let the air waves flow.”🎶 5/5 Highlights: Can’t You Hear Me Knocking You Gotta Move I Got The Blues

In the late 60's early 70's the Rolling Stones released in quick sucession Beggars Banquet (1968), Let it Bleed (1969), Sticky Fingers (1971) and Exile on Mainstreet (1972) which forms the highlight of their repertoire. Of this complete tour de force Sticky Fingers is in my opinion the top. Not only because, unlike on some of the other albums, there is not a skippable song to be found here, but also with the masterful flow this album has. Starting off uptempo with 'Brown Sugar' it then slowly settles to the ballad 'Wild Horses' via the slow rocker of 'Sway', then to pick up again with 'Can't You Hear Me Knocking.' And a highlight of this album is the heartbreaking and terrifying 'Sister Morphine', with the electric slide of Ry Cooder. Possibly the Stone's best song. This is the Stones at their best

there was a time I thought it would be like this every day

I've listened before, but not for a long time. A few classics here but more than half of this album doesn't really resonate or feel that memorable to me. "My heart is beating louder than a big bass drum, alright"

I was never a big Stones' fan, but I must say that their work is impressive. Several great songs in here - some that I knew and some that I \"discovered\" (don't remember hearing before, but probably have). I know that I have seen or even owned a copy with the original working zipper - maybe it was one of my brothers who had it.

My dad was a big Rolling Stones fan so no doubt I was listening to this in the womb and it's music is imprinted into my stem cells. The whole album is good (even the country-ish songs) but there are two songs on this album that I find outstanding. Can You Hear Me Knocking - starts off with a bang with that guitar riff. Then there is this part where it transitions into a sax groove, then it starts to sound like a Santana song, then everything is thrown in a blender and ends with a single beat. I was curious about the saxophone so looked the song up in Wikipedia. Apparently, it was only supposed to be the first few minutes, but they kept jamming thinking that the recording was over. The second half was a happy mistake. I think that demonstrates what great band/musicians they were. Second song is Bitch. Rocking rock song and again with horns!

There may be better Stones albums, but this is definitely a good one. Most of the youtube songs were 2008 remasters, and while I don't have the originals to compare to, the remastering probably contributed to my enjoyment to give it a richer sound than the typical early 70's mixing had.

Some great songs to give it a strong 3...but not quite enough overall for me to give it a 4.

The more I know this band the more I respect them and learn to love it ;-)

Mid

This album made me realize I’m a bigger stones fan than I thought… I was doing the puzzle and it started to repeat and I was cool with listening again.

. Side 1 6 stars Side 2 4 stars I know that averages to 5 …

This is practically a perfect album. 4 stars. I'm a bit soft on the most country sounding songs but the rest is so inspired and activated.

Wonderful Stones album. One I keep returning to. Super bluesy too.

This album cover is eye rolls. I’ve recently decided Andy Warhol was a hack. Anyhoo, love the Billy Preston contribution to this. I don’t love the songs with lengthy improvisations, though. And songs like “You Gotta Move” make me scratch my head. It smacks of appropriation today, though that wasn’t on the radar in 1971. I prefer a song like “I Got the Blues” that is certainly very bluesy, but they’ve put a distinctly Stones spin on it. “Dead Flowers” is my fave song on this album. I like them best when the blues influence manifests as honky tonk. 3.8

Pretty classic - solid rockers with some down tempo numbers. I'm not a fan of the slower ones, but I suppose it's the contrast between songs like "Bitch". It's certainly held up over the years thanks to the strong radio hits. 3.9

Includes classics like Brown Sugar and Wild Horses - super solid all around

The Stones went on a historic 4 album run. For me, this ranks behind Exile On Main, the writing and arrangements on that album are superior. My favorite is Beggars Banquet, exelent songwriting with some of the deepest heartfelt Stones work. Let it Bleed and Sticky Fingers represent the pop side of the Stones best

The Rolling Stones. At this point, you either like them or you don't. Or you like different periods of their career over others. Either way, this is a Stones album you will likely enjoy if you enjoy The Stones.

This one I liked a lot more on the second listen. Short and to the point with a lot of decent songs. I’m usually not as big a fan of The Rolling Stones compared to most. And while some songs still bored me I found something enjoyable about most. Rating: 3.9

Very consistent and high quality throughout

Got laid while this was playing, hell yeah 😎

Cool! Starting to get slight 1001 albums burnout I fear cuz this didn’t wow me but oh well!

There are a lot of all time classics on this album. Even if the lyrics for "brown sugar" haven't aged well, the sound has.

The Stones at their sharpest, nastiest, sweetest, heaviest, and best. Let’s just try to forget the words to that first song. Best song: Wild Horses

I knew a couple songs on here, good album but wouldn’t listen to all regularly

Except for you gotta move I think this is a great album. I wish i could give albums 4,5 though because I don’t think it is as strong as other albums I’ve rated 5 but it’s definitely better than albums I’ve rated 4. So i’m going with 4

The best Rolling Bones I've had come up so far. It's more than just medicore blues covers and doesn't go off the rails too much.

A really good album.

How young black girls taste has not aged well. Indulgent bluesy ramblings.

The truth is, I don't really listen to a lot of classic rock anymore. It just doesn't blow my hair back like it used to, but god damn, the Stones were just the best pure rock band ever and no amount of time seems to change that.

Pretty good, hits

Perhaps the Stones’ best album? I literally don’t hear a bad cut on it and the opener brown sugar is as strong opening as they ever had and for the Stones, that’s really saying something—highly highly recommended.

3.8/5 listened 2x

Not their best, but pretty enjoyable still

The Stone it and miss for me. This is mostly miss, especially Jaggers affectations on You Gotta Move. 2 stars for Wild Horses obviously.

bleh the album cover is one of the grossest that has to be out there. I still think ‘Paint It, Black’ is the only good rolling stone song but Moonlit Mile was now absolutely terrible.

Probably my fav Stones album from this list.
