dunno what everyone always has against Dirty Work, personally I love the record, it's perfect to work out to due to the speed of most songs, the angry and rough way Mick sings is exactly right to do cardio to LOL

I can't believe I am STILL loving this album.
The BEST thing about it is the length. 48 minutes of pure RnR bliss!
No worthless fillers, no obligation to fill 79 minutes of the CD format, etc
A problem that, IMO, plagued all releases from VL onward.

I have been riding in my jeep with the top off for a week now
(The Carolinas are experiencing the best autumn in years!!)
with HD blaring...I take the long way home sometimes or even pass my house
and continue for 15 minutes mode just to get to the end while cruising.
I know it has enhanced my mood these last few weeks, for sure!

Times are good, indeed!

Totally second that! My job has been rather annoying lately, I gotta do very boring, repetitive tasks that still are incredibly important for the project at the moment, so in order to not die of boredom when not distracted by meetings and other calls, I keep listening to the new album on Spotify when I can and it's sure an incredible mood-booster!

Also I'm seeing a Stones cover band this WE and I wonder whether they might play some of the new songs, it would be kinda funny to hear them live in person first by a cover band and not by the Stones themselves xD

Reply #104 - Nov 10^th, 2023 at 10:37am so I was wondering what the vocals on Driving Me Too Hard, one of my fave songs on the album, would sound if isolated that's why I played around a bit with some AI apps and that's the result, I just love to hear Mick and Keith's voices singing together like that <3

Very well done. It's my favorite song on the album, and one of my favorite things they have ever done. I easily put it into a classic category. They should get in touch with you and give you some credit because with just them singing, it's good enough to be a rock solid B side. Nicely done.

Hahah thanks, I didn't even really do that much except for wasting time googling stuff and uploading files here and there to try out what works best Cheesy

I also got Tell Me Straight but it didn't let me upload it on Youtube yet for some reason...I'll try again, all those different file formats are a struggle :/

Ronnie mentioned him, he said he was zooming with him and Elton asked if he could play with them, then Ronnie joked to him that he'd have to join the queue of others who also want to be on the album with them xD even Keith said something about him in an interview as far as I remember, apparently they're getting along nowadays, I haven't read anything by Mick about Elton, but let's face it, the interviewers all just keep asking them about Gaga and Macca and Charlie all the time, so they'll keep repeating the same answers over and over again, it's getting a bit old...wish there were interviewers who dared to ask a bit out of the box stuff

Interesting that Keith says Elton's part was recorded - without him - in London - and he overdubbed his guitar parts later. It seems from these quotes that they all overdubbed over Charlie's drum track.

Didnt know this...may the rants settle down a bit.
The conspicuous absents of SSOH and anything else related to the album did strike a chord in me.

Wow I just saw a Stones cover band in my home town and they played Angry and SSOH!! The female singer was so freaking good, imo the actual Stones should hire her to sing that song, since I cannot really see Sasha Allen managing it that amazingly xD sadly cannot share a vid yet since the internet here is slow af, but hopefully tomorrow then once it has uploaded...

They also played Brown Sugar and I recorded it as well, probably was the last time I'm gonna hear it live lol since the actual Stones decided to let themselves get cancelled by the woke wave...
