I'll bite.

Down In The Hole?

Great tune. I remember being a cook at a Pizza Hut in Marietta, Ga when Emotional Rescue came out. My buddy Mark Simms and I worked at this Pizza Hut, and we were both Stones' freaks. This was the b-side to the title track on the jukebox. We played it over and over again. We played that song so much that the manager told us to knock it off or he'd remove it from the jukebox. We3 would just until he left and then crank it up repeatedly. Good times!

Okay so here's the next one

Shit "Down in Hole" really made me remember great things in my life... too late

Crackin' Up and the whole Side 3 of Love You Live made me remember a very special time of my life, I was in college, probably some the best days of my life.... I don't know why but during those days everytime I played side 3 it was something in the air Better seen on weed!

and of course crackin' up with it

Next Rocks Off!

Ok, "Rocks Off"....

I got Exile when it came out, and I played it every single day for, oh, I don't know, months! And, when Rocks Off came on, I knew I was in for a supreme 2 lp's worth of some of the best Stones songs of all time....{before and since, although the "since" hadn't happened yet!} So, for me, RO meant that the great songs were just beginning...

Street Fighting Man -
When I was little I would play BB on cassette. The piano during the outro was like heaven to me, so I would often listen to the song on repeat. I also associate it with my first Stones show (opening night, DC 8/94), when they did some crazy sh*t (blow up dogs or something on stage???) during the VL tour, and I was thinking..this is the best night of my life (so far!)!!!

next: Tell Me

I know I'm bending the rules, but I've got to go back to this one. "Tell Me" was one of the first Stones songs that ever really grabbed me. Those harmonies by Keith really make this song for me. It reminds me of sitting in the back of my parents' car on a Friday night, going up to the mountains, and "playing" the song in my head because we didn't have a car radio.

I'll let someone else take "No Expectations."

I got Beggar's Banquet when I was a junior in high school, on tape, from a Record Bar in St. Louis (I actually think it was Chesterfield, but, same thing). It was my fourth full length Stones album, after 1) Dirty Work 2) Aftermath and 3) Some Girls. I also had Hot Rocks at the time. I knew the Stones were some kind of big fucking deal to me, but it was really Beggar's that sealed the deal and I kind of knew it from first listen.

I put it in my walkman-like knockoff device whilst sitting in the backseat on the way to the Cardinals game I was attending with my folks. I already knew Sympathy, so No Expectations was where that album truly began for me. I can still remember the first time I ever heard it, leaning against the passenger side back seat door, looking out over 40/61 going by, while that slide guitar slipped through my head. I felt like I was entering another world entirely.

cool choice, SG...My dad used to have the Flashpoint/Collectibles CD combo in his truck's center console back in the 90s, and whenever we'd go places, those two discs would get a lot of play. I especially loved the nearly 8-minute long Winning Ugly, cause it was less 80s and had some interesting instrumental breakdowns. Anyway I also loved playing the long version of Harlem Shuffle from Collectibles, I could really get into a grove with that one. Great album for the drives on I-95 to UMD Terps games (Steve Franchise baby!) or DC.

Oh, I just have to take this one.. hope I am not barging in...

IORR.. the very first time i saw the Stones.. it was on late night TV.. I remember it perfectly.. I was a little kid, sneaking out of bed to catch my older siblings watching tv ... anyway, I remember Keith scaring the crap outta me and thinking he was the coolest person I have ever seen all at the same time, not to mention Mick and his instant charisma that shot out of the tv and got me ...*sigh* those sailor suits, IORR always holds a special place for me...

my earliest: angie - in 73 when the song was big..... my mom and cousins doing some summer house cleaning while the radio is on - and angie is playing - I was about seven and i had this strange aversion to it...hated it!
there was something in jagger's voice that irritated me - he sounded to me like he was mocking the listener...ha - i had it right/
i guess i was meant to fall in love - eventually - with this band.

and again in the summer of 78 - before i fell, so to speak...
hearing miss you on the car radio - the song had irritated me - but watching my cool cousins from the valley (border town region in texas, not cali) singing/talking it word-for-word was my first clue that i was missing out on something cooler than i was at that time.

Can I do CYHMK instead? We can get back to Crazy Mama.

When I lived in Africa, I walked my dog every evening while my wife rode her horse. I'd hit off my little dugout as we walked (law? what law?) and I'd stop at a "buvette," a little divey watering hole with broken plastic furniture outside on the red clay. I'd sit with the dog at my feet and have a beer watching the ladies come back from the river with laundry on their heads. I made friends with the proprietor and one day gave him Sticky Fingers as a present. He would play it all the time, but one of his speakers was blown, so CYHMK would play without Keith's part at all! But let me tell you, despite those being some of Keith's greatest licks ever, Taylor's part carried the song nearly as well. I suspect Sticky Fingers is still blasting out of that one speaker today. They didn't exactly have a large collection.

Holy crap! That's JUST what I was going to say about Crazy Mama until the other story popped into my head. I love that thing!

Some Girls: I always think of my recording of the 1-25-99 debut in Oaklan wondering how Jagger was going to handle the "controversial" line, and loving the fact he said "some WHITE girls just want to get f***ed all night."

Next song:

Time waits for no one- wow what an awesomw tune. way back in the late 70's I got a five finger discount from Treasure Island on highway 41 on an IORR cassette and I walked all over my neighborhood in the summer of 79 with my little boom box blasting! I heard TWFNO by the pool one late night with a great buzz and it took my heart away.

next up- She's So Cold-
