The best six songs on Sticky Fingers
Apr 23^rd, 2011 at 10:31am

To commemorate the 40th anniversary of Sticky Fingers I’m gonna be the guest on the Radio Station next Friday, since the programme is only one hour long and we discuss the music, sometimes we played six songs only (or seven when they are short), so please let’s create the track list for this occasion, help me with this, voting

.
Multiple option, don’t waste your vote selecting only one, select six or seven
Guests can vote

BTW, You can modify your vote, you have 24 hours from your vote to do it

FG!

Absolutely! But remember, you can vote for more than one song, the poll is about the six tracks that MUST be played on the radio station and not about your favourite song(s), so you can delete your vote and vote for six or seven songs

"Let it Rock" is there because it was a b-side on the "Brown Sugar" single (RS 19100, released some days before Sticky Fingers, on April 16, 1971)

As far as I know it has never appeared in any version of Sticky Fingers, not even as a bonus track however it was the third song to appear as part of the "Sticky Fingers" release. It was recorded live - Leeds University on 13^th March 1971 and released one month and three days after on 16^th April 1971!

Sway Wild Horses Can't You Hear Me Knocking I Got The Blues Sister Morphine Dead Flowers Moonlight Mile Couldn't keep it to 6. Left off Brown Sugar. Just because I'm so tired of hearing it at this point. Tough call between the fun rocking Bitch and the lovely I Got the Blues. But the blues it is.

As far as I remember, 'Let it Rock' replaced the banned 'Sister Morphine' when the album was first issued in Franco-era Spain.

The album cover was changed there too.

Hard to mess with perfection. Sticky Fingers is my favorite album period - by the Stones or anyone else. Wasn't easy either. Left off Brown Sugar - hear it all the time and it's been a Pepsi ad for pete's sake. If folks haven't heard that by now they've been living in a cave.

As far as I remember, 'Let it Rock' replaced the banned 'Sister Morphine' when the album was first issued in Franco-era Spain.

The album cover was changed there too.

Yes, it did but it was also in the British (and European) version of the first single. Since the very first edition RS-1900 released in the UK, the single had “let it Rock”, the cover only showing Brown Sugar and Bitch, so this was the sequence of covers:

16th April 1971, the single issued in this picture sleeve

Some days later, on April 23rd the original cover, check the location of the legends “Rolling Stones” and “Sticky Fingers”

Then the Spanish banned version with “Let it Rock” instead of “Sister Morphine” (Glad Spanish censorship didn’t read the lyrics of other songs LOL)
