First, founding guitarist Brian Jones died during the recording process. Second, the Stones take their last significant look at pure blues (Robert Johnson's spooky "Love in Vain") and country ("Country Honk," the two-stepping alter ego of "Honky-Tonk Women") before folding both styles into a cohesive rock & roll vision. Third, it contains some of the band's most eerie hits, such as the flame-enveloped "Gimme Shelter," the drug-reality anthem "Monkey Man," the epic "You Can't Always Get What You Want," and Mick Jagger's menacing "Midnight Rambler." --Steve Knopper Average Rating:
 Rating:  - BloodrockI got nasty habits. Small town boy, hung up on the only decent girl around. Eyes so blue they shoot me dead, the sky is grey with jealousy. Queue up for the bathroom 'round about 7:35, every Tuesday's early but her bad mood just makes me smile. Vain, private, recondite. Stylish! Why can't I resist this creature? Got class, cool, history. I actually cook for her. Think about her all the time. What's wrong with me? I should say it, I should blow it: "Don't you wanna live with me?" Rating: - Goodbye to the love crowdReleased just before the infamous Altamont debacle of December, 1969, "Let It Bleed" signals farewell to the peace-and-love Sixties in no uncertain terms. Once again, following "Beggars Banquet", an entire year went by until the release of the next Rolling Stones album. That year was 1969, and it had seen the death of Brian Jones, under suspicious circumstances, earlier that summer. Jones is present, posthumously, on "Bleed", participating in both the vicious "Midnight Rambler" (percussion), ...

The digitalized remastering process here sounds almost as good as pristine heavyweight vinyl. And for younger listeners, if you've never heard "Let It Bleed", you're in for a ride. From the first quiet haunting notes of "Gimme Shelter" to the tongue in cheek choral intro and outro of "You Can't Always Get What You Want" - with plenty of hard rockin' in between - it's the Stones at one of their all-time peaks. Rating: - very good albumI am a music lover period and The Stones one of the great groups of all time.Had some 45 rmps by them in the sixties and seventys but this is my first album.No complaints here. Rating: - Probably the best overall Stones album/cd....Sticky Fingers is close, but for overall quantity of good songs on one disc - this is probably it! Not "knocking" their other disc's (they have plenty of good ones), or individual songs on others - but overall, for number of good rockers/quality tunes on one album I like this one. |
