I love Gimmie Shelter too; I guess I should have been more specific and said that Love In Vain and Country Honk are the tracks I don't care for.

Re: Sympathy For The Devil; I usually don't get into songs on the basis of their rhythms (which is why I don't appreciate much funk music), but I'm all for non-guitar driven songs. That track just doesn't do much for me, though I know I'm definitely in a very small minority here.
