Well, perhaps next winter. I'll put it on the Christmas hint list. Besides, I need to recover from my surfer spending. Now I keep eyeing those Birdwell competition jackets.

I'm not familiar with that one. Believe it or not, I credit my wife with turning me on to Public Enemy several years ago (shortly after we met). It was just something I'd never gotten into. Now I am a huge fan of this one and Fear of a Black Planet (in some ways, an even better sounding album, to my ears). I probably just wasn't ready for it when it first came out--still too much of a closed-minded rocker dude at the time.

I wonder what Mick and Keith could come up with if they put their heads together and made a Beastie Boys styled hip-hop track? (To my knowledge, the Stones haven't attempted hip hop yet, have they? I haven't kept up much with their work post-Tattoo, though.)

Tour photo, I think, no? I remember seeing photos of Jagger that summer in that shirt and those shoes. I love what they were doing with percussion on the tour, with Ollie Brown.

/\  what bad writing C.?  love him or hate him Martin Amis never wrote a bad sentence in his life, that review made me laugh ....?

Goats Head Soup. I loved it from the start. I've loved it over the years. In fact, I probably listen to it more than Sticky Fingers and Exile.

A review from those pretentious hippy twats aRS, loathe their work though I generally do, did a fair job on the album's release of summing things up.

"The Stones never worry about contradicting themselves." It's one of the things I loved about them back in the day.

one of the best things I've ever seen, a dedicated fan's heartfelt compilation video tribute to the dance.
