Someone took the trouble to post it on Utube with quality sound.

Hook up your mega speakers, crank the vol and enjoy.

I have this on vinyl and plat it on my Yamaha or Technics turntable on a regular basis.

Sixty plus year olds still have boogie in them.



This one has some tracks that are not on my vinyl.

that killer guitar playing in "sympathy" makes absolutely pointless an old the beatles vs the rolling stones debate IMO.
the beatles just coudn't play the instruments neither live or in studio. which bring them to the top of the most overrated bands ever.

Have the Rolled Gold dble album
good for the ears
Remember some decades back when they were going into states for a tour and they were under a drug allergations with possible jail implications (prob more a media beat up than reality) they booked a gig under pseudonym in small Toronto bar . Being there would have been awesome As they were playing for the hell of it incase they had to do jail time inUS or so the story went.
Lots of good bands around pre-punk era, which reminds me need to digitise the albums b4 they disintegrate
cheers

I'm not a huge fan of either Stones or Beatles but I salute their massive contributions to modern music.


ROLLING STONE, 2009, Greatest 500 Rock & Roll albums
( I can't find a newer list but, hey, not too many new albums would get there I think. A true geezer comment!! )

Results gleaned from 100 music industry "experts"

1 The Beatles, 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band'
2 The Beach Boys, 'Pet Sounds'
3 The Beatles, 'Revolver'
4 Bob Dylan, 'Highway 61 Revisited'
5 The Beatles, 'Rubber Soul'
6 Marvin Gaye, 'What's Going On'
7 The Rolling Stones, 'Exile on Main Street'
8 The Clash, 'London Calling'
9 Bob Dylan, 'Blonde on Blonde'
10 The Beatles, 'The White Album'

I've scored 0/10 on that list!

As Sergeant Schultz would say...." vaary interesting"!

Ya Ya's turned me and a bunch of mates onto the Stones many moons ago
Seen 'em 3 times, saw Mick once, bought countless LP's, tapes, CD's, but why are they still so f'n greedy and charge fans mega to go see 'em, pisses me awf !
Can't do it his time, enough is enough
If you're going, have a good one, don't get too on it before you go, take it all in, and remember forever seeing the greatest rock'n'roll band in the world !!! Ever !

For loving EVERY song with no crap? Not many albums at all!

This - apart from the weird intro....






Of course if you have never heard NIN - Closer then the first track is meaningless and people get upset lol

^^ yes very original in it's time and good sing along stuff.
The love songs are the wonderful antithesis of the heavy ones, very talented guys.


Well that, or Richard Cheese "Appertif For Destruction".
Either or.

You would have to define Limp Bizkit as metal/techno/rap rather than rock and roll.

I like the Mission Impossible track.

If you like Guns N' Roses - OK, if you can handle Axle's screech - then Appetite is an awesome album. Such great guitar work from both Slash and Izzy. The only Iron Maiden album I like is Live After Death but its a corker too, for the same reason.

The greatest, though? Impossiburu!!!

Meatloaf, Bat Out Of Hell, tho the live version is even better as it shows how much energy they put into it

Iron Maiden, Number Of The Beast, might explain why I am the way am today, and Bruce Dickinson is still going strong

VB man..batloaf not a bad album still listen to it..but live at the Horden when he came out there was an unknown Aussie outfit called the keystone angles "The Angles" blew him off the stage.. only time I've seen a support group called back encore before the main act.. freakinn nailed it.

Sands.. yep what an album love it still. "4 n 20 years ago I came into this life", almost cut my hair.., I wish I still had some "Steve Stills does too", It's one of the few albums that can be played through.

Anudder, is to me Blind Faith..just love the ambiance/feel of the music puts you in the era.

But you simply cannot underestimate nor for forget Mr J Hendrix, master of the telecaster.. album Electric Ladyland, Voodoo Child long version, burning of the midnight lamp, house burning down...fken genius. Wont be long till that album is 40 yrs old & every budding rock guitarist still need to or will listen to it. Influence, that's whats makes a great album.

Never got Sgt Peppers....but the White Album now ya talkin'..some tracks were ahead of their time.

Uncle Thirsty Hendrix was the master of the Stratocaster not the tele.

he played a right handed strat left handed and didn't even bither to restring it. No wonder no one else ever sounded like him. Legend. And my favourite is Voodoo Child (Slight Return).

Jimi actually played a borrowed Tele for the solo on Purple Haze. He reckoned it had only two sounds: one good and one bad.
His own guitars were all restrung, but he could play a righty upside-down no problem.
Electric Ladyland was a masterpiece.

I'm going to have to include this album, I see where you guys are going and it's in a good direction, I'd call this the final destination, not just this song, but the entire album.
