REVIEW

Most of the songs found on Emotional Rescue rate in the good range, with Mick's falsetto going strong on the title cut, the album's best tune. "She's So Cold" is another real hot number. The songs on this album really blend in good especially "Send It To Me", "She's So Cold",  "Let Me Go" and "Summer Romance". "Where The Boys All Go" sounds a bit like the Metamorphosis released "I'd Much Rather Be With The Boys" (especially their endings), which was recorded way back in"65. Get rid of "Indian Girl" (yuck!) and "All About You" (sorry Keef - perhaps his worst song ever), and this is a much better album.

*Old Ratings vs. New Ratings

The old ratings that you see here were from back in 1998 when I first rated the album for this site. Since time does change one's point of view, I decided to listen to and rate this album again, doing so in late 2005. Also note that I did not look at the old ratings from 1998 until after I placed my new ratings here.
