The first album by the Rolling Stones in eight years, A Bigger Bang is simply the best Rolling Stones album since Some Girls (if not Exile On Main Street) and one of their best ever. A Bigger Bang is not a classicist effort, an attempt to sound modern, nor is it a calculated effort. This album is the sound of Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Ron Wood and Charlie Watts playing like they did in their 20s, as this foursome has finally gelled in their 60s (sorry, Wood was 58)!
Containing sixteen tracks in all, A Bigger Bang has the appearance of a double album along the lines of Exile On Main Street but hardly has the feel of one as there is an individual song structure. "Rough Justice," "It Won't Take Long," "She Saw Me Coming," "Oh No, Not You Again," "Dangerous Beauty," "Look What The Cat Dragged In," and "Driving Too Fast" are all simply great rock 'n' roll by the world's greatest rock 'n' roll band. "Rain Fall Down"is not only a rock song, it even has a beat that you can dance to, and I doubt this was intended by the group. "Streets Of Love" is one of their best ballads while "Let Me Down Slow," "Biggest Mistake" and "Laugh, I Nearly Died" are among their most heart wrenching and revealing songs. "Back Of My Hand" is some of their best blues while "Sweet Neo Con" is not only great blues but is also one of their most political tracks as it takes a swipe at the U.S. government apparatus in place at the time. And of course there, are two winners by Keith Richards, the sentimental "This Place Is Empty" and the menacing closer "Infamy." Not only is this one of the best Stones' albums ever, it's possibly the best straight-forward rock album of the 2000s.
Unfortunately the list of straight-forward rock albums of the 2000s is quite short, so let's hope these guys stay around until their 80s. If this in fact turns out to be the Stones' final album, what a way to go out.
My name is Nathan Stallings and my interests are both popular music and music history.

Acoustic KO [CD & DVD] $34.99 Nope, didn't think this would be much, either. A chairbound-acoustic Ig means missing the singular spectacle of him slithering about a stage like a spastic snake eating a runaway garden hose. But our Mr. Pop is, like Robert Pollard, an aggressive guitarist you rarely see playing an instrument (not even his `60s Iguanas gig, drums), so this is already interesting. On the DVD, he manhandles the thing in much the way he sings: full-out on hard stuff, and with dexterity on lighter tunes. No surprise he breaks strings near the onset of the eight-song acoustic troubadour Barcelona 1993 footage, including firm versions of Jonathan Richman's Modern Lovers' "Pablo Picasso," Them's "Gloria," and Richard Berry's "Louis Louie" updated for the fall of the wall. There's also two Stooges tracks (and a few OK new American Caesar numbers--where was "Wild America?"). It's surprisingly good viewing, despite the immobile limitation. But truly compelling is the seven-song solo-electric 1990 Virgin Megastore appearance in Paris. Clearly feeding on a surrounding crowd, standing/moving, and tripling his guitar volume/density, the Ig lets 20 times more of his mayhem genie out of the bottle (and nearly his pants--showing the adoring French his underwear-clad butt). If he doesn't quite transform tepid Brick By Brick numbers, they're still better. And as for the four Stooges numbers like "Down in the Street" and "Loose," well. classic! Finally, the disc-two CD of demos is, frankly, boring. But the DVD is great for fans to view another side of a living legend. ~ Jack Rabid |
