: Good point Gazza - the slow rollers are the best work the band has done for the past several years.
Yes. Also your point of Start Me Up's block riff. I never heard it that way but I like it, alot.
Moreover, about your 35 and younger crowd. I think age is not a factor when analyzing Stones songs. I am 28 and was hooked when I was 12 along w/ KISS, but I left them behind. Stones songs have struck a chord w/ me like no other band can.
I know OHTTB is also there but w/ a good mucical system it sound like a whole new song.
I also know there are others, Too Tough, Had It With You, Maybe Winning Ugly, on a certain day Undercover Of The Night, Mixed Emotions and along w/ the friggen non realesed boots! Cut The Mustard.
But reading posts about this subject, I think I was wrong about She Was Hot. There is really not one song in the past 20 years one could say that was their best, not 35 years but 20. Some define best differently, and thats cool.
