Also this (re: title track):
I was actually thinking about starting a thread called "Lines in songs that should get applause in concerts," because every time I hear the line "I was dreaming last night..." (the point where Mick reverts to his normal voice too), I have to resist the urge to put my hands together and applaud. It's a great moment.― Keith C (kcraw916), Thursday, June 2, 2005 3:18 PM (8 years ago) Bookmark Flag Post Permalink

otm. i've always loved this song and that moment in particular. i also love when they doubletrack the falsetto voice with his normal voice. disco stones in general are just great. for a while beast of burden was my favorite song by them, and i am a dude who had exile on main street in his car stereo for an entire summer.

This song is the 5 AM of their career. On the way home vaguely, just before sunrise and sobriety and the 80s
― calstars, Sunday, 9 March 2014 22:57 (ten years ago) link
not that this debate is worth having anymore but i love the stones so much more than the beatles. i think it's great that they refused to bow out gracefully and preserve their myth, but kept on trucking well past the point where it became embarrassing to people and (from what i gather) motivated totally by profit because jagger and richards can't stand each other. they stayed true to their spirit, which was sleaziness, and for some reason that i don't quite understand this makes them great and i probably have more fun listening to them than any other band.

"Emotional Rescue" fully justifies the band's lingering on into the 80s all by itself.

"Summer Romance," "Where The Boys Go," "Dance Pt. 1," "Send It to Me," "She's So Cold" -- all terrific.

great record. i still think it's better than all that boring shit they did after Exile and before Some Girls

there's so many bands that cops moves from the earlier peak stones periods - that initial run when they were brian's band and then beggars thru exile - i wish there were more bands that just blatantly ripped off that some girls thru tattoo you run. maybe you have to have been the stones for fifteen years to pull it off.
― balls, Thursday, 21 April 2016 17:12 (eight years ago) link
Dud. Their weakest '70s record, and a huge dip in quality in comparison to the albums immediately before and after.

I haven't listened to the album in forever but, the amazing title track aside, I remember being particularly amused by that one song that sounded like it belonged on the soundtrack to one of those Spring Break-style T&A comedies from the era.
― some sad trombone Twilight Zone shit (cryptosicko), Saturday, 1 April 2017 04:06 (seven years ago) link
Probably "Summer Romance" or "Where The Boys Go"--both of which, incidentally, are titled like 80s T&A teen comedies.
― to fly across the city and find Aerosmith's car (C. Grisso/McCain), Saturday, 1 April 2017 05:27 (seven years ago) link
Yeah, "Where The Boys Go" is the one.

I like some of those songs, and I probably owe the album a fresh listen (it's been quite a few years), but I don't think it is good enough to justify its rep of the last good Stones record.
