aftermath - the rolling stones (1966)
so this time around the stones finally write their own stuff after three albums. not bad…but was it good? the only word i can describe this is album is “raw”. the album is raw, loud, gritty, and you can hear the stones are having a good time. the album also features experimentation and a variety of new instruments. “mother’s little helper” is just great but “goin’ home” overstays its welcome. mick, i know you’re having a great time improvising for 11 minutes (really 11 minutes…) but for us here listening we just wish this song was a bit shorter.
highlights: mother’s little helper, stupid girl, lady jane, under my thumb, flight 505, out of time, think, what to do.
