Goats Head Soup (Remastered) – The Rolling StonesView More By The Rolling Stones Our ReviewBy 1973 the Rolling Stones had asserted themselves as the self-proclaimed "World's Greatest Rock n' Roll Band" with a powerful live show that played up the strengths of their extensive and varied catalog and capitalized on the presence of guitar whiz Mick Taylor and a funky and capable horn section. On record, the band added keyboard whiz Billy Preston for two numbers and overall polished up their raw tones with the latest studio technology. As the album's keynote single, the Mick Jagger ballad "Angie" set a subdued tone that's also reflected in the sublime "Winter" and Keith Richards' drug-inspired "Coming Down Again." Goats Head Soup could never live up to the ambitious double-album sprawl of its predecessor,1972's Exile on Main Street, a now revered classic that was given mixed reviews upon its initial release, but it contains several classic Stones rockers, including the harrowing "Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker)," "100 Years Ago," (both with Preston guesting on keys and clavinet,respectively), "Dancing With Mr. D." and the playfully risque "Star Star." The '60s were long over and the Rolling Stones were not about to be left behind.. Customer ReviewsI don't want a sandwich, just gimme some Goat's Head Soup! (5 stars)Goats Head Soup is, in my opinion, an absolute masterpiece. Keith Richards spits out riffs like madman, and Mick Jagger's voice twits, turns, and emotes emotion while keeping perfectly in tune with Richards' always blues-inspired guitar. Let's not foget the absolutely brilliant work of Bill Wyman, Mick Taylor, who was completely amazing, and Charlie Watts, the most "forgotten" of the Stones (although none of them are really 'forgot GHS (5 stars) Along with Let it Bleed, my favorite Stones album. Saw the Stones in Columbus and Pittspuke a few years ago with Pearl Jam, they were as good or better than ever!! Long live rock! way interesting - one of their most eclectic (5 stars) This album has everything in common with the moodiness of Sticky Fingers and not the aggression of Exile or It's Only Rock n Roll. But this is a very revealing album for Jagger lyrically. He was never this personal again. Exile is above this but I enjoy this album more than it's only rock n roll which rocked harder but was much more commercial It's beautifully moody, uneven and honest. Very eclectic too. It's a great album. BiographyFormed: April, 1962 in London, EnglandGenre: Rock Years Active: '60s, '70s, '80s, '90s, '00s, '10s By the time the Rolling Stones began calling themselves the World's Greatest Rock & Roll Band in the late '60s, they had already staked out an impressive claim on the title. As the self-consciously dangerous alternative to the bouncy Merseybeat of the Beatles in the British Invasion, the Stones had pioneered the gritty, hard-driving blues-based rock & roll that came to define hard rock. With his preening machismo and latent maliciousness, Mick Jagger became the prototypical rock frontman,...
