7.Black and Blue
8.Aftermath
9.Exile on main street
10.Stripped
Also, this is a fascinating list in its breadth and in its focus on the post Tattoo You world. If Beggars Banquet is an almost clean break from their 60s sound (even though it was still in the 60s), Waiting On a Friend, which closes out Tattoo You, is like a turning of the page from the 70s sounds. Voodoo Lounge and Bridges feels like a different era in my mind but has its own merits to consider.

Oh wait!! And two on your list - Black and Blue, and Emotional Rescue, are possibly the two most underrated Stones albums. Goats Head Soup gets a raw deal in my eyes, but those two are maligned despite having great stuff on them.

After a lifetime of being relatively indifferent to the Stones, I am coming around to this.

But, the ‘60’s stuff is my favorite. The big ‘70’s albums (Exile, Some Girls, etc.) would be lower on my list than they would on many others. I like them, a lot, but love the overall feel and flavor of their Decca stuff. I think Between the Buttons is probably my personal favorite.

Ive been a fan since i was a kid, Voodoo Lounge being the first one i got after the com Jump Back, with also featured a lot of the highs from the 70s maybe thats why i like that era so much, the overall jamming attitude they had and cool they sounded.

But yeah my love from the 90s is from watching them in the Bridges To Babylon tour ( two times one of them with Bob Dylan as an opener!) wiating for that album to drop, watching the video premier of Anyobody Seen My Baby...all those memories.

Since I was maybe 16 years old, I liked the Stones, and then really in my early thirties I really dug in more into their albums proper and found so much more…and yet, I would make excuses every tour for not seeing them, but it was mostly because l didn’t want to pay an excessive amount of money to go to the show. Now they are 80, and this could be our last chance, and finally I am going. I missed more than I ever should have.

I do enjoy every era for the most part (there are duds but in 60+ years I would expect that), but to me, that 4 run album from ‘68-‘72 is what I would define as the central experience of rock music.
Yey! i wanna see them again too. After 1998 they came here two times i think? but i wasnt really in the mood back then.

Spinning Hackney Diamonds on vinyl right now

i just love this one. The energy is so fucking wild. Mick Jagger sounds so good, i hope he has another one left, at least a solo album if the band does not want to go to the studio again.

yeah, and there are very high energy moments in pretty much all the album but also some very cool ones like the final song, rolling stone blues, that sound awesome.

Yeah that last song was a real “in case this is our last album, let’s come full circle” - Watt convinced Vedder to do really the same thing with On My Way.

Went back to Hackney Diamonds today for the first time in a few months. I still think this is Tattoo You level good.

Scratch one off the bucket list. Last night’s show was good. Mick is as Mick as ever, and he owned the place from start to finish. Keith and Ronnie seemed to be okay but maybe a bit past what they’d been capable of - they seemed to be in a legacy place and treated by the crowd like mascots, at least in comparison to Jagger, who seemed 20 years junior of them. The set from Miss You through the end was truly spectacular though and worth every penny. The guys they got around them are all pretty exceptional.

Set list: Start Me Up, Get Off Of My Cloud, Shattered, Angry, It’s Only Rock & Roll, Wild Horses, Mess It Up, Tumbling Dice, You Can’t Always Get What You Want, You Got the Silver, Little T & A, Sympathy for the Devil, Honky Tonk Women, Miss You, Gimme Shelter, Paint It Black, Jumpin’ Jack Flash

Encore: Sweet Sound of Heaven, Satisfaction

I think, like led zeppelin, I don't listen to the stones that much because their albums are too perfect ( in a good way). I probably gravitate to between the buttons the most.

I've only listened to HD 5 times or so and I'm not really feeling it. It's fine. I agree with the post above disparaging watt and noting it doesn't sound like the stones.

Looking forward to seeing them soon though.

I still think you can’t beat Sticky Fingers and Exile On Main Street, with Let It Bleed not far behind. All 3 probably make my top 10 favorite albums ever, with Beggars Banquet in the top 25 I’d say somewhere. The next tier for me is Tattoo You, Some Girls, Goats Head Soup, and Between the Buttons - all great albums for me. I could go on and on (never underestimate Rolling Stones, Now! For the early era).
