Within the mini-genre of songs about heroin I'm not sure this makes my top-ten. Musically great, but do the lyrics meet the standard of commenting on the human condition or are they limited to saying something only about Mick's condition? The former makes this a great song, the latter makes it lyrically trite.

Sticky Fingers is one of the greatest R&R albums of all time.

Is Sticky Fingers the Stones best effort???? Just wondering.

Depends on the day. Sticky Fingers is definitely in the top 2 or 3. Exile, Let It Bleed, Beggars Banquet, and maybe even Tattoo You or Some Girls could be considered their best.

I think it is, why does the doctor have no face, myself. What a song...

That changes the imagery in an interesting way. I've always heard "Why... does the doctor... have no face ?"

They were much more musically interesting when Mick Taylor was with them.



I always thought that Mick Taylor was better than the rest of the Rolling Stones in terms of musicianship, especially Keith Richards, but oddly I like the earlier albums the best up through Let It Bleed with the original Stones.
