Paint It Black, Under My Thumb, Lady Jane, all great tracks, so I don't know if its underrated. The non-hits are certainly very strong, though.

I will take this question with a duel meaning...

Underrated by fans like US...who post on fan sites etc...

and underrated by the general masses who listen (ed) to FM radio and just want their art
spoon fed to them...

Underrated by the fan community...UNDERCOVER...it is too easily cast aside as MTV fodder

Underrated by those who suck on said fodder..BLACK and BLUE or GHS...simply for all
the reason we all on RO love these albums

Damn, you convinced me. Heart of Stone is one of my top 10 tunes. Hard for me to pick between this and 12X5 for underrated regarding their pre-68 albums.

Reply #19 - Jan 24^th, 2011 at 9:02am Underrated by the fan community : anything from 1964-67. To read the forums sometimes you'd be forgiven that the Stones didnt exist prior to 'Jumpin' Jack Flash' Underrated by the public : Bridges To Babylon.

I agree with this...
but will also add

cause I like it but most here don't.
Why do I like it.......
it's a personal thin.
I got to finally go see them with this album after years of tryin and failing I got to see the Stones.
It's got a lot of different thins going on, Blues, Rock, Country, Pop. Similar to my favorite, Exile On Main Street.
This album marks that for me. other wise I'd still like it .
Otherwise if I had one answer to the question it would be:
BLACK and BLUE

Their first two UK LP’s are underrated, IMO. Both The Rolling Stones and Rolling Stones No.2 reached No.1 on the British LP’s chart – and in fact, are both the two biggest-selling Stones albums in the UK. Their debut was the first Stones record I listened to in its entirety and I know it note-for-note. It’s utterly superb in every way. The second LP (released in Jan ’65) I a slight step-down in quality, but is still wonderful, with the rollicking Down The Road Apiece and haunting Time Is On My Side.

My choice, too; but "no hits"? What about "Ruby Tuesday"? Or "Let's Spend the Night Together"?
