Customer Reviews One of the better late period Stones CD's I saw them in Syracuse at the Carrier Dome in '89 , and it was the best Stones concert I ever saw, because they did so many of their anthems that they hadn't done in a while, plus new songs from this album. I like this album, it really energized the Rolling Stones in 1989, when they returned to performing. A welcome return to good songs, singing & playing here. I like the R&B influences, and background vocal assistment from long-time Stones stalwarts like Sarah Dash, Lisa Fischer & Bernard Fowler really add a nice touch to MIXED EMOTIONS, ROCK AND A HARD PLACE, and the awesome ALMOST HEAR YOU SIGH. This song is amazing - one of the best ballads that Mick ever sang, astounding lyrics, emotive vocal, and the R&B background vocals that make this a stellar Stones song. It should have been a bigger hit. A lot of people don't know it, but it is a real deep cut - a Stones hidden gem. Also love TERRIFYING and CONTINENTAL DRIFT with it's Mid-Eastern influences [ and used as the opener of the Steel Wheels tour ]. A very memorable Stones album here , one of their better latter peroid albums. Oh no, not the Rolling Stones again ! Their music is poor and so is the vocals. They are big only because they were one of the first Rock'n'Roll band. Poor band making poor music !. Steel Turds Unfortunatley, they keep churning out these crummy albums. I love much of what the Rolling Stones have done during their long career. It is hard for me to believe that the same people who recorded "Get Off Of My Cloud" put out this drivel. Only buy if you have to buy a gift for someone you don't like. . You can see a complete list of all The Rolling Stones discography, or go back to the The Rolling Stones tabs
