Favorite Rolling Stones record overall?

Satanic Majesties
Between the Buttons

Much prefer Jagger without his American drawl.

 

Tie for Sticky Fingers/Exile.

But if I was forced to choose I'd pick Sticky Fingers purely because it was an old copy of the LP I found in my mothers collection that turned me onto the Stones.

They quickly became my all time favourite band and I've now seen them 18 times.
It'll be 19 at Desert Trip!

 

Beggars Banquet

 

Let It Bleed
Rolling Stones Now
Are 2 albums I can listen to in any mood I find myself in.

 

Then you can understand I'm no Stones fan by any stretch. Faraway Eyes is a bit of a parody anyway. Just a fine song.

 

Aftermath UK
Exile On Main Street
Let It Bleed
Beggar's Banquet
Sticky Fingers

 

Exile on Main St.
Let It Bleed
Sticky Fingers

Exile on Main Street followed by Let It Bleed. That first American album is good too.

 

Bugger's Banquet, no question.

 

I have a strange fondness for Satanic Majesties. Except for the substandard songs at the end of each side, I think it's a fantastic album, although the critics,most fans, and the Stones themselves hated it. The Beatles were lauded for their grandiose experiments in the studio but most people just didn't want to hear it from the Stones. They never went down that psychedelic rabbit hole again, although "Continental Drift" from Steel Wheels came darn close.

 

Hot Rocks...

 

A Brussels affair, best live recording ever!

 

this except id swap some girls for tattoo

 

That is my favorite live Rolling Stones recording until they release something officially from 1972.

 

Exile. But it changes daily.

 

I am surprised how can anybody prefer one Rolling Stones record to another?
They are simply too good to.

 

Let it Bleed.

 

Currently Some Girls.

 

It's Only Rock & Roll...perfection.

 

Let it Bleed then Sticky Fingers

 

Sticky Fingers
