This is a very interesting album indeed. And it’s freewheeling enough to be on the verge of collapse at different points, but its grit holds it together wonderfully. There’s something to it not being perfect, in a juxtaposition to Exile, which to me is a defining rock album - the exact way it should be, at least comparably. Listening to them back to back makes this album feel unhinged, and maybe that’s the source of the initial rejection of this album. I still insist that it’s their most underrated album, but I can’t lie, Exile and Sticky Fingers are two of the best albums I have ever heard.
Somehow the album comes off a s muddy and a little too durge-like to me. There's a kind of darkness to the album that I find hard to qualify but it keeps the album as second tier Stones for me.

Eazy Sleezy folks. Mick Jagger and Dave Grohl. It was perfectly okay. Nothing nearly as good as Living in a Ghost Town from last year. Where’s that Stones record they said was coming?
Awesome. It’s one of the few non-Pearl Jam albums I own on vinyl, CD, and is queued up and downloaded on my Spotify (related: two more are Exile and Let It Bleed). Just really one of my all time favorite albums.
Tomorrow is 50 years since the release of Sticky Fingers. Let’s all give a listen. One of the few basically perfect albums in this world.
i was talking to KT the other day about this one being probably my favorite RS album. Its such a good one...Sway, Bitch, Wild Horses. Cant You Hear Me Knocking, Sister Morphine...Moonlight Mile!! They sound so fucking tight.

Not to mention Dead Flowers is probably my favorite “country rock” song.
I have the transition in Can’t You Hear Me Knocking in my head all afternoon.
Exile on Main Street is still my favorite but this is the close second.
