ROCKS OFF - The Rolling Stones Message Board

Jeep Rocks Off Regular Offline Posts: 281 Frogland Gender:	Some Girls : 30 years ! Jun 8^th, 2008 at 10:24am June, 9th 1978. Release date of Some Girls album. It was thirty years ago ! My first Rolling Stones LP (just owned some K7 before this purchase). The last "classic" album of the band, as important as Sticky Fingers, Let it Bleed or Aftermath. Of course Tattoo You was a classic one, but not really an album, it was like an outtakes best of.

Ditto The Stones album that made me a fan. Maybe its sentimental reasons which see it edge Sticky Fingers as my 2nd fave Stones album, but it still holds up brilliantly three decades on.

great great record for me indeed. i just wish i had the origional record cover because i heard if it is in good shape it could fetch up to 4-5 g's...i used to play this on record over and over and had to buy extra copies. i mush have burned thru 4-5 of these. i think they changed the origional cover shortly afterwards... same art work but with different colors

i still listen to it.....when the whip comes down is a cranker....especially when your speeding down the thruway.

Are you fucking serious?

Holden Rocks Off Regular Offline Rocks Off Rules You Bastards Posts: 1,317 Tampa Bay Gender:	Re: Some Girls : 30 years ! Reply #17 - Jun 8^th, 2008 at 7:49pm Some Girls is overrated. They're all excellent songs but they just don't work well on the same album. All the songs are just A to D. Boring and repetitive imo. The guitars in the rockers are too thin and weak as well. But it's a whole different story when the songs are played live

Reply #19 - Jun 9^th, 2008 at 8:18am Unbelievable that it has been 30 years already. I might add that these sessions produced some of the best bootlegs/outtakes of their career, IMHO.

I just completed a review of "Girls, Pills & Powders", a five cd set. This achieves a 5 out of 5 on the Wicked Pissah measurement scale...

Reply #34 - Jun 9^th, 2008 at 11:24am Jesse Jackson is such an assclown he must be related to Jacko.I have the original Some Girls too but not worth a lot as there are many around.I do have the original Sticky Fingers with working zipper and the yellow label side one appears on both sides so thats rare as a mis labelled LP I suppose.

Reply #39 - Jun 9^th, 2008 at 2:36pm A good Some Girls original goes from 10 - 20 bucks, a good Sticky Fingers original goes for between $15 - $20, a good Satanic Majesties stereo original between $40 and $60 and a Beast of Burden PS is about a $2000 record. Go figure.
