I think the Stones are overrated but they are still good. The reason why I don't rate them as high as most fans is because, for me, they haven't made a great album.

That isn't to say that I think their best albums aren't any good, not at all. But they always seem lacking to me, making them consistent but sometimes 'meh'.

Exile, for instance, doesn't have any bad tracks, but nothing that makes me think, 'wow, what a great album, I'm gonna listen to it again straight away'.

They have had great songs, both singles and un-released, but spread out over their albums.


But.....

......very good review. I don't have to agree with it to like it. I especially appreciated you writing about how it made you feel etc rather than just saying 'this song rocked' 'wow that was good'.
