Yeah, the Goats Head Soup fiends should out/explain themselves.

"A Bigger Bang" was considered sort of a "return to form", but granted I'd expect those who named it so to still vote for something from the late 60s or early 70s.

I can see with some of the 60s psych fans on this board that Their Satanic Majesties Request would get some votes, but not that many and Beggars Banquet being that low is really surprising. I think "No Expectations" is the best song that Jagger and Richards ever wrote.

Classic ILXOR poll - just the right mix of contrarianism and trendiness.

Should be the new board description for ILM

Yep.

ILX = "I love Pet Sounds AND 'Kokomo!' Too bad 'Good Vibrations' and 'Help me Rhonda' were such pieces of shit."

Kind of an odd choice for Wyman to join them on; he didn't even play on the studio recording.

Bridges to Babylon and A Bigger Bang got a vote

!

Shin Oliva Suzuki, Monday, 26 November 2012 01:35 (eleven years ago) link

Yeah, can't believe those two got votes and Tattoo You got none.

Nate Carson, Monday, 26 November 2012 03:58 (eleven years ago) link

would've voted for 'the rolling stones' (which isn't the same album as 'england's newest hitmakers'), which is the one i listen to most these days.

(The Other) J.D. (J.D.), Monday, 26 November 2012 04:50 (eleven years ago) link

Dirty Work getting more votes than Some Girls or Flowers is one of those "only on ILM" things.

soto got socks

buzza, Monday, 26 November 2012 05:22 (eleven years ago) link

Just noticing how many "BB" album titles they had: BB, BtheB, B&B, BtoB and aBB.

Too bad they were beaten to Blonde on Blonde, Back in Black or Beaucoups of Blues.

Would have voted for Sticky Fingers

The Jupiter 8 (Turrican), Monday, 26 November 2012 17:35 (eleven years ago) link

They ended their concert with Cherry Oh Baby? What an odd choice

Panaïs Pnin (The Yellow Kid), Monday, 26 November 2012 21:46 (eleven years ago) link

that was my mistake, Yellow Kid. That was playing on the PA as people filed out!

Iago Galdston, Monday, 26 November 2012 21:47 (eleven years ago) link

I guess Street Fighting Man is a little too risky to play these days, lol

Iago Galdston, Monday, 26 November 2012 21:48 (eleven years ago) link

I dunno if this is the thread for it but I finally saw Crossfire Hurricane and while the interview content isn't necessarily anything new, goddamn I loved some of that footage (no not just naked mick bending over in front of the camera O_O). also cool to get more horse's mouth stuff from Taylor, even if it's stuff I already knew.

How I'd rank their discography.

Well done. Interesting that Goat’s Head Soup escaped Meh status. I like it but I understand it has its share of detractors.

Three Borads and the HOOS (James Redd and the Blecchs), Sunday, 6 October 2019 12:26 (four years ago) link

Ha!

Let them eat Pfifferlinge an Schneckensauce (Tom D.), Sunday, 6 October 2019 12:37 (four years ago) link

Just noticed that the title, like that of Finnegans Wake, contains no apostrophe, sorry.

I disliked Goats Head Soupp for years thanks to that pustule called "Angie," but I saved it for the sake of "Winter," "Coming Round Again," and "100 Years Ago."

Fair enough
