Title: Stones' Debut
Product review: The self-titled debut album by The Rolling Stones laid the blueprint for the next several releases of their career. They had a couple of original songs and a liberal dose of the hardcore rhythm & blues that made them the evil twins of the Beatles. The first three songs "Not Fade Away", "Route 66" & "I Just Want To Make Love To You" (later made famous by Foghat) all show the raw energy of the band. "Tell Me" is a fine original composition. "I'm A King Bee" sets up the Mick Jagger persona of the sexual lothario and "Carol" starts the trend of having a Chuck Berry cover on their first few albums. The album shows off the band's potential and although it doesn't always hit, "Can I Get A Witness" and "Walking The Dog" to name two, it is a solid debut.
