The old guys can still cut it, old musicians that is. They usually improve with age, like a fine wine. I've only heard the single which is a ballad so can't really comment. Mick Jagger's voice is beginning to sound a tad strangled to me.

Nice try John, why didn't you use the misalignment of Neptune in relation to Capricorn? ;D
Then you could have used the Capricorn is suffering from the evil mis-posting weevil sneaking into their PC excuse ;)

I'm listening to "Look What The Cat Dragged In" as I type this....... again...and again..... WOW!  Never better.  Rolls along like a freight train.  Keith rips it up.  

"Sweet NeoCon" is the Stones at their political cutting best....... sparse sound and pointed lyrics........ feels like the 60's again  ;).  

"She Saw me Coming" is the boys at their mysogonistic best still talking about women.  

"Driving Too Fast" is very reminiscent of early Stones...... lean instrumentation and raw harmonies.... nice.

Keith's voice however seems pretty darn weak on the slower "Infamy" ....... occasionally a hair off key.........which is the weakest track on the disk, I think.   The mix has the vocal track a tad too prominent for the strength of his current voice.   But that Keith is still ALIVE and performing considering his  .... ahem..... "lifestyle"... is amazing in and of itself.

But his fingers.... man his fingers THEY still got it.

Eeeehhhhh......... sonny boy.  You listen up now, ya' hear.  When I was your age..... we walked 935 miles to school ... uphill both ways.

Back in the day... there was these young guys from.... over there.....um'........ England.  And they plays music ya' see.  I'm sure ya' heard of them,...... you know the .... the insects..... oh yeah  ... The Beatles?  Well..... it weren't them.  It was them OTHER ones.

Yeah... the Rolling Stones.  That's it.

I gotta's go take a nap now.   ;D

I'm hoping to get that album soon.  I've heard the single "Hard Justice" on the radio and I really like it.   ;D  And Considering your reviews, it makes me want it more. :)

It's not a bad album but it could have been better.

Indeed. Did anyone try my link? You can listen to 4 complete tracks. If that's a fair sample of the album then quite frankly I'm disappointed.
