Striking here - many of the tracks sound somehow (though good) remnant of the previous albums. , Dancing with Mr. D.` would also have been of Sticky Fingers, the mangy Blues, Hide Your Love` would have been in good hands in Exile, as well as the country-infected, 100 Years Ago` (which incidentally end up quite as hell grooving).
A huge success was the slice (No.1 in US u. UK) mainly thanks to the well-over hits, Angie`. While that is certainly now worn out, but still belongs to the most tender ever Stones songs. The second - actually almost better tearjerker here - Coming down` surprised with a Jagger / Richards duo and not just gave it in this form so many times in the stones.
The Abräumer this disc, however, Heartbreaker`, that would of course never been as compelling without Billy Preston's Clavinett Hook and Mick Taylor's Wah Wah guitar is probably just as important as one of the blackest track the band has ever recorded.
, Star Star` will probably be forever Keif's most famous track - before all wg. perhaps the most unique of all Chuck Berry reference Stones songs. Strange thing is that he did not then sang the lead vocals himself.
But the nicest thing, Goats Head Soup` is how compact the band sounds here - as if Taylor would have been anyway since 10 years here, whereby even durschnittliche compositions Silver Train` develop like, an incredible drive and a great dynamic. Just this board raised the bar for Taylor's later spare Ron Wood very high - gorgeous Taylor's Slide Parts on this LP.
And of course, one must also highlight Jimmy Miller again; whether he now this song blowers added or that tasteful strings - Miller made then actually everything soo right and took out all the songs out the maximum.
So - even if, Goats Head Soup` may be a mixed affair - Fun makes the disc still and a real master plan for an entire album the Stones had probably never anyway, including? If at the end then emerged solch` beautiful song collections ....
