Let Me Down Slow

Alert Board Moderator about this Post! 
While working on the pc today, playing the Stones winamp playlist, along came "Let Me Down Slow" from A Bigger Bang, and it struck me, what a really great track that is. And with several other good tracks, "Oh no not you again, Rough justice, Laugh, I Nearly Died, and Biggest mistake,  it's really still growing on me. This "growing on me" happens to me a lot.
I think it has to do with all the shit music you hear everywhere the whole day, and makes you realise that our boys still deliver, although I wished they would deliver more often.

I hear ya. And dont forget the great blues tune BACK OF MY HAND. Instant classic IMO.

there's trouble, troubles are coming
I can read it like the back of my hand

I see love, I see misery
Jamming side by side on the stage
 

MICK and KEEF maybe?

Yes! Let Me Down Slow was a favorite of mine from the very first time I heard that album. It's been a little while since I listened to A Bigger Bang... I remember,when it came ou, I played it damn near every day for several months.

I disagree with all the above - but I can't be mean about it.  Believe me - I feel the same way about Dirty Work and its outtakes right now.

I prefer Publix but I always spend too much and get more than I need. Better seen on weed!
