Title: Underrated Stones songs
Post by ronnie-woody on Jul 8^th, 2024 at 3:10am

https://americansongwriter.com/one-very-underrated-track-from-each-of-the-rolling-stones-1970s-albums/

I just remembered this article again that Google suggested to me the other day, but not really because of any of those songs on the list altho I fully agree with all of them, but because my friend just made me re-listen to the entirety of ABB again after ages and oh my god...Laugh, I Nearly Died...it's SO good! Mick's voice <3

Coming back to the above list, I'd say there is way more than one underrated song on Exile (Torn and Frayed e.g.!) but anyway...what are other songs you consider underrated and people should be listening to and talking about more?

Hearts for Sale! Am I the only one thinking that mood and lyrics wise it's a cousin of Mick's Peace for the Wicked on Primitive Cool?

Sadly they finished it over 35 years too late for it to have an impact.

I'm the other way round, and rarely ever listen to anything post-TSMR (though BB and LIB gets the very occasional plays). As for underrated songs? The whole of 'Between The Buttons'!

Hard to believe there's not more recordings than what we had on bootleg

It's so funky :)

Speaking of some girls, "no spare parts" is a really lovely song that I don't play enough.

i think several songs they've never played live are probably very under rated....Time waits for No One, Slave among them.
