A Glorified Garage Band - Nothing More
i own two Stones albums. . . . this one and 'beggars banquet'. i will probably upset more than a few people with my opinion, but. . . except for some well written songs, i have always thought the Stones were overrated. the Stones playing has ALWAYS been sloppy (both in the studio and live). as a musician myself, i certainly wouldnt consider any of them technically proficient musicians. you would have thought by this point that keith richards would at least have been able to afford a guitar instructor. it blows me away when someone will say how the Rolling Stones are the greatest rock n roll band, then put down a band like Led Zeppelin. the Stones style ripped off the blues far more than Zep. having said all that, there are two really good songs on this album - 'Gimme Shelter' and 'You Cant Always Get What You Want'. the rest is simply forgettable.


When The Lads Played Rock For Keeps
Still, it is interesting to listen once again to the guys when they were at the height of their musical powers (and as high, most of the time, as Georgia pines). Hey, in 2009 no one, including this reviewer, NEEDS to comment on the fact that The Rolling Stones, pound for pound, have over forty plus years earned their place as the number one band in the rock `n' roll pantheon. This album from their most creative period from 1964 to 1971, moreover, unlike let us say Bob Dylan who has produced more creative work for longer, is the `golden era" of the Stone Age. While this CD has a fistful of "greatest hits" from this period and there are no really bad tracks here the stick outs are "Gimme Shelter"( as always), the title track "Let It Bleed", "Midnight Rambler" and "You Can't Always Get What You Want". Ain't that the truth on that last one.

the rolling stones best album of the 60,s let it bleed!!!!
the rolling stones let it bleed is one of their best albums ever,let it bleed was released in december of 1969 which unfortuneatly was the year guitarist and founding member brian jones died shortly after being asked to leave the band for many personal reasons bettween, brian,mick and kieth. when brian left the stones hired mick taylor as new lead guitarist and did the very succesful let it bleed tour. . also on that very same tour of 1969 the stones gave the infamous free concert at altamont speedway in northern california and hired the hell,s angels as security!!!!needless to say that was a bad decision and strangely enough when they played sympathy for the devil the angels killed meredith hunter. however the album,s fine points are,gimme shelter,midnight rambler,let it bleed,live with me and you can,t always get what you want this album is a must for any stones fan!!!.


Great Re-issue - but not a SACD
This is NOT a Hybrid SACD - it does use the SACD tech (DSD), but is no better than the CD layer of a hybrid. I am writing this so others won't feel ripped off like I did. This is VERY GOOD remaster - Monkey Man, which I always thought sounded flat - is now rich and full. but I repeat this is NOT SACD quality as was advertised in the description. Hopefully they will correct this error soon. And I guess I should say this is one of the top four of the Stones albums !!! Buy it if ypu're NOT looking for an SACD disc.
