View More By The Rolling Stones Our ReviewThe Stones' version of Jerry Ragavoy's "Time Is On My Side" (almost a carbon copy of New Orleans singer Irma Thomas' soul hit) was the band's first U.S. Top 10 single and, along with a sharp take on Bobby Womack's "It's All Over Now," remains the standout of this second album. The other 10 tracks are split between generally good rock and R&B covers and a frankly uneven set of originals. Of the latter, "Congratulations" is the clear winner, thanks to Mick Jagger's soon-to-be-familiar dry, jaundiced delivery of snarky lyrics. The group lets loose on the instrumental "2120 South Michigan Avenue" (a tribute to Chess Records, which was based at that Chicago address). But the rote renditions of "Confessin' the Blues" and "Under the Boardwalk" sound like a band marking time while waiting for a breakthrough.. Customer ReviewsRemastered classic (5 stars)This was a great rock/blues record, and it sounds much better now. I disagree with the critics on this one; I think it has a bluesy and ballsy feel to it, and it rocks too! Buy it. Oh man... (5 stars) This album straight up rocks.. So badass. Listen to it all the way through and you'll want to play it from the beginning all over again, i guarantee it. Very soulful, something that most of their music doesn't have. It's a must have for any music lover. A Must Buy for Our Generation! (5 stars) I was a Stones fan from their very first song! I had all their albums, and by the time I moved and moved again, the ones that weren't stolen were scratched very badly. I've been meaning to replace alot of them and then this release came out. I LOVE this selection and the remastering is worth it!! It sounds like it was recorded yesterday! Buy it! BiographyFormed: April, 1962 in London, EnglandGenre: Rock Years Active: '60s, '70s, '80s, '90s, '00s, '10s By the time the Rolling Stones began calling themselves the World's Greatest Rock & Roll Band in the late '60s, they had already staked out an impressive claim on the title. As the self-consciously dangerous alternative to the bouncy Merseybeat of the Beatles in the British Invasion, the Stones had pioneered the gritty, hard-driving blues-based rock & roll that came to define hard rock. With his preening machismo and latent maliciousness, Mick Jagger became the prototypical rock frontman,...
