Steel Wheels [Reissue]

Great album

Love this Album,but then again I love all the Rolling Stones Albums.

Any Stones CD is a good one some better than others. This one was a pretty good issue from the 80's with some very good songs that was remastered in 2009. Emotional Rescue was the biggest hit and a good song but my favorite is Hearts for Sale which is a classic addictive Stones tune . Sad, sad. sad , terrifying, Rock and a Hard Place and almost hear you sigh are also good songs. The two Keith Richards songs are his best since I need a love to make me happy, can't be seen and slipping away are great offerings. Continental Drift and Break the spell are my least favorite Stones songs on this CD. The strengths outweigh the weaknesses as usual and this is a worthwhile purchase. Recommended.

De los que la gente toma como discones menores el mejor

Ok folks, I skipped this album just like I skipped Voodoo and Bridges albums that followed. Those are the only 3 tours I've seen the Stones and yet the only albums other Black and Blue and Goatshead Soup that I didn't own. Yes, on the one hand they are regrettable overlooks on my part, but the upshot is I now have new Stones music to enjoy until my son and I see them play in June 2015. This is the last album with Good Ole Mr. Wyman on bass and he really shines on this one. You will not be treated to his funky rhythms on Voodoo Lounge and when listening to both albums for the first time as I did a few weeks ago, this fact really jumps out at you. Keith Richards has a gem here in Slipping Away, which BTW is even better on Stripped. Keith's voice is the perfect whiskey and cigarettes voice that can age well into his 70's. If the Stones do no more records, Keith can still do it on his own.

Steel Wheels is the last great album that the Rolling Stones have released. This is their best album since Tattoo You and every song here is very good. One listen to the album shows that the band is hungry and having fun again after Mick Jagger and Keith Richards' mid-80's spat. "Mixed Emotions" is their last Top 10 single to date and has an excellent chorus while the funk/rock of "Rock in a Hard Place" and the ballad "Almost Hear You Sigh" would also be strong and successful singles. "Sad Sad Sad" and "Hold On to your Hat" are joyous rockers, "Hearts for Sale" has one of Keith Richards' most killer riffs, and "Slipping Away" and "Blinded by Love" are strong heartfelt ballads. They also touch on their "dance" era with the song "Terrifying" while "Continental Drift" recalls their psychedelic era even with its modern production. The rest of the tracks are fine as well. If you like the Stones, Steel Wheels is certainly worth owning.

Prompt delivery. CD and jewel case in very good condition.
