Some Girls
is one of the best albums the Rolling Stones have ever
released. The era of The Seventies, for the band, saw them
pushing forward and becoming much more than a blues rock band.
Some Girls is a complete album, from start to finish, and
contains many classics.
“Shattered”
allowed Mick to strut his stuff while “Imagination” showed the
softer side of his musical persona. “Miss You” was a huge hit
and the title song may be the raunchiest tune the band released
since “Honky Tonk Woman.” “Beast of Burden” was yet another
future classic released on the album while “When the Whip Comes
Down” and “Lies” have remained fan favorites. And who can
forget the Mick country twang on “Far Away Eyes”? Some
Girls is a killer album and one of the last times the Stones
put their attitude out front and matched it with their musical
cannon. Great stuff indeed.
