Title: A MAJOR DISAPPOINTMENT
Product review: Far from definitive, FORTY LICKS is little more than a generic grab-bag of past hits (and a few misses), hastily slapped together to promote yet another Stones tour. It's telling that many of the tracks omitted from this collection -- "Harlem Shuffle," "Waiting on a Friend," "Almost Hear You Sigh," and, most of all, the stellar "One Hit (To the Body)," are a great deal more interesting than colourless tunes such as "Shattered," and the truly insipid "Undercover of the Night," both of which were deemed necessary inclusions here. And just who had the bright idea to include a cover of Christina Aguilera's "Genie in a Bottle" as a "hidden" track??!! Kids, don't try this at home!
