    Not me. GHS is more concise compared to Exile but Exile has better songs and so does Aftermath and Beggars Banquet.

    Good album. Not their best. I do like the album title and photography/packaging a lot.

    Last best? But there can only be one best. ;) Jk

    Their last great studio effort was "Voodoo Lounge" IMO.

    It's somewhere in the middle of the herd, but we all have our favorites. It's not for everyone , but Goats Head Soup is an acquired taste....

    Not their best by a long shot. But perhaps their most under appreciated. I think the passage of time has elevated its status for many Stones fans. Certainly has for me.

    you couldn't have told the forum it was your favourite on one of the 20+ other threads about GHS?

    I'll sign, but Sticky Fingers is a close second.

    The last year or 2 I've really warmed up to it, recently got a sealed vintage pressing that sounds great and the SHM CD which sounds pretty good too. One or the other gets play time at least once every several days now, I favor the vinyl.

    Far from their best. Mick Taylor shines big time on this one. Keith Richards was MIA on most of this album.

    Almost as good as 1st half of IORR and better than the second half. Pales compared to other Stones LPs through 81.

    Better than Exile, Sticky Fingers, Beggar's Banquet ? That's a stretch.
