Ironically, if we had submitted ballots for the Top 5 Stones Albums Not Released 1968-1972, I'm not sure Voodoo would have made the top ten.

aftermath seemed to consolidate early stones album vote, the way vertigo has really become the default hitchcock on the last couple of sight and sound polls.

great picture, rog! (not a fan of the song, but an auspicious debut to see such a deep cut place right at the start)
― Iago Galdston, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 19:00 (twelve years ago) link
I cut Sister Morphine, but it was one of the last cuts - glad to see it place.

I kinda love this song, specially the weird guitar DOINGs
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 3 April 2012 19:00 (twelve years ago) link
i still haven't figured out how to make my guitar do that tbh

i dig the piano sound on sister morphine. do we think that mick had heard sister ray before writing this song? not that they sound similar, just the "sister" thang.
― tylerw, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 19:04 (twelve years ago) link
also this song really does nail "downers"

This was top ten for me -- Charlie's drums, the Ry Cooder slide, the bizarro Jack Nitzsche piano playing -- a close relative of mine who spent months in the hospital after a near fatal car accident said that this song was onomatopoeic.

i voted for "Salt," have very warm feelings toward it from the Rock And Roll Circus performance
― some dude, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 19:13 (twelve years ago) link
but back to sister morphine -- ry cooder *is* really great on that isn't he. wonder if the stones ever tried to just hire ry as their new lead guitarist?
― tylerw, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 19:13 (twelve years ago) link
Salt of the Earth is funny and cruel. Sister Morphine is pretty and cruel until the "sweet cousin cocaine" part. then it's funny.

I love Salt of the Earth, I voted it pretty high
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 3 April 2012 19:22 (twelve years ago) link
i remember one week when as teenagers i would taunt my brother by singing "Angie" in a really absurdly over the top Mick voice. good times.
― some dude, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 19:23 (twelve years ago) link
Hey, how many total ballots were there? I assume the 42 was just the amount of album ballots, but that tracks are coming from a bigger pool, correct?
― grandavis, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 19:24 (twelve years ago) link
It always weirds me out how Hotel California's intro sounds sorta like Angie
it kinda pisses me off tbqh
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 3 April 2012 19:25 (twelve years ago) link
noted upthread but since it's moving pretty fast:• 67 ballots• 169 tracks receiving votes
― all yoga attacks are fire based (rogermexico.), Tuesday, 3 April 2012 19:28 (twelve years ago) link
tbh, I first became aware of "Angie" via Tori Amos's cover of it on one of her singles or an ep or something. But I got around to the Stones original and really fell for it.
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 19:30 (twelve years ago) link
xxxxp yeah, I used to sing Angie like this all the time. in fact, I still do
shouldn't the number of votes decide the ties?
voted for Out of Time! is it too low?
― gospodin simmel, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 19:31 (twelve years ago) link
Thanks! Sorry, I looked for the total but somehow couldn't find it.

"angie" was one of the staple "slow dance" numbers when i was in junior high
― buzza, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 19:32 (twelve years ago) link
haaaa, such a raw song for 13 year olds to be dancing to.
― tylerw, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 19:33 (twelve years ago) link
it's weird to think that "Angie" is one of only 8 or so Stones songs that topped the charts in the states. it sure doesn't feel like one of their 8 biggest songs.
― some dude, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 19:34 (twelve years ago) link
it could, but since there are very few ties and they're all at the tail end of the list I went with more/merrier. rest assured there's no impact once things get serious.
― all yoga attacks are fire based (rogermexico.), Tuesday, 3 April 2012 19:35 (twelve years ago) link
xp yeah in terms of classic rock radio ubiquity there are a bunch of stones songs ahead of "angie." not that i don't hear it pretty often.
― tylerw, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 19:35 (twelve years ago) link
"angie" is a genuinely great song, top 20 for me, and the only one of these i really care about. damn glad i voted for it, as it wouldn't have made the cut otherwise.

interesting. maybe it's just the one i listen to out here, but it seems like i can't go a half hour w/o hearing beast of burden.

"Ir's All Over Now" was the last one I cut from my list. Something kinda perfect about it.
