Let It Bleed Specifications
One of the Stones' most beloved albums, 1969's Let It Bleed was a benchmark for several reasons. First, founding guitarist Brian Jones died during the recording process. Second, the Stones take their last significant look at pure blues (Robert Johnson's spooky "Love in Vain") and country ("Country Honk," the two-stepping alter ego of "Honky-Tonk Women") before folding both styles into a cohesive rock & roll vision. Third, it contains some of the band's most eerie hits, such as the flame-enveloped "Gimme Shelter," the drug-reality anthem "Monkey Man," the epic "You Can't Always Get What You Want," and Mick Jagger's menacing "Midnight Rambler." --Steve Knopper
Customer Reviews
Hey, in 2009 no one, including this reviewer, must be based on the fact that the Rolling Stones, pound for pound, more than forty years plus comment deserves its place as number one band in rock 'n' roll Pantheon. However, it is interesting to hear more about the boys, when at the peak of their musical forces were (and are so high, most of the time when Georgia) pines. This album of their most creative period 1964-1971 also, unlike, for example, Bob Dylan, who has producedmore creative work longer, the golden age "of the Stone Age. While this CD is a bunch of" greatest hits "from this moment and there are no really bad tracks here, the stock outs" Gimme Shelter "( as always), the title track "Let It Bleed," "Midnight Rambler" and "You Can not Always Get What You Want." It is not that the truth about the last.
