Let's not.

Another new handle, Motels?

That's a very strong statement.  Nothing stupendous, but I think it's a fine album, actually.  I play the alt version on the first Voodoo Brew disc quite often.  

It sounded okay when it first came out but 2 weeks later I was no longer listening to it. The best songs were Moon Is Up and Thru And Thru.

The singles were probably among their weakest singles ever.

Good tour though.

voodoo lounge is pretty ok.  if i had to campare it with some girls i would side with some girls.  it is better than dirty work, i think.  i like 5-8 songs from it.  blinded by rainbows especially.  i named a rock climb after that song.  it is up at poco moonshine in the adirondacks, ny.

everybody say ow.

Good album, their best since Undercover.

it was nice when voodoo lounge came out because it had a lot of songs on it....good value for your buck.  i think i paid 13-15 dollars for it.  one of the things that was mentioned to me was the end photo in the booklet has mick/keith and ronnie, but no charlie watts.  sort of like why?

I think it is their best since Some Girls over all. I was giving some thought along the lines of A Bigger Bang being better than Voodoo every now and again for a good six months after ABB came out.

It was more solid, harder rocking, and stripped down BUT now that I look back I gotta give it to Voodoo Lounge between the two ...however certainly absolutely no dis-credit to ABB. ABB was simply great.
But in the end Voodoo has more of a time and place feel, plenty rock radio hits, and has a certain warm, looser vibe than ABB and certainly more than Bridges to Babylon.

Now that time has passed I give it to Voodoo because it had "soul" and that won it over for me ..along with the big single-ready radio tunes. AGAIN ...though ABB was simply great.

Voodoo has a "lets have fun together and party" warm vibe where BTB was colder, darker and sounds purposefully more calculated. ABB was hot, hard rocking and "running though one rock track after another" sounding  ...but Voodoo touched a place for me when listening to it that gives it the prize.

I remember hearing stuff from it for the first time. It was so fresh and "BIG' sounding with a sort of  Beggars/Let it Bleed style to it. Now it is a "feeling" album that just says ....lets have a blast, yet as well has a soulfulness all through it.

I love it.
