Title: Overrated
Review: Maybe I'm missing something profound compared to all the other reviewers here, but as someone who has thoroughly enjoyed all the Stones golden period discs meaning Beggars Banquet onwards up to and including "Tattoo You", I personally find "Some Girls" to be their weakest disc throughout this whole period(1968 - 1981) With the vital exception of the brilliant "Miss You" and the mildly appealing "Beast of Burden", to my ears the vast majority of this disc contains pedestrian "samey sounding" songs which are not particularly strong in the tunes department and the overall playing is not tremendously inspired either. Sorry about the contrarian viewpoint but this is just to warn any potential buyers of this disc who may be overtempted the gushing reviews of how fantastic the album is. For my money, check out the criminally underrated "groove trilogy" specifically "Goat Heads Soup", "Its Only Rock N Roll" and "Black and Blue", these discs are funky and souful.
