It reminds me of the LZ and the blues conversation.

How the **** can you love something so much and still not ****ing get it?
Honestly I think the Rolling Stones were just having a bit of fun with country and not trying to truly experiment. They never sounded like they were taking their flirtations with the genre at all seriously. That's all well and good I suppose but it had the effect of boring the snot out of me. I was too high on Townes and Willie to settle for tourists. Maybe I'll change my opinion at some point.
