If we lived in a world where you had to choose between the Beatles and the Stones then my allegiances would always be with John, George, Paul and Ringo. That being said, there are plenty of tracks from the Stones that I enjoy and I'm kind of interested to see how I enjoy their individual albums in this book.
This one is a lot bluesier than most of the Stones' stuff that I'm familiar with. It's like an early, embryonic version of the band. The 1001 albums book talks about how brash and rude they seemed at the time. Not by today's standards, but I guess if you compare them to the Orbisons and Everlys... even the Elvises and Beatles, they were loud, rude and crude.
