"Some Girls" is the collaboration of Mick Jagger and Keith Richards (more about Keith, of course...the genius of the Rolling Stones) resulting in the rudest, most overtly chauvinistic album ever to expose the nasty aspects of women (and in themselves, indirectly) in an album that offends and taunts like no other album before its time. Especially notable about this album is how the guitar licks were so skillfully crafted as to sharply and accurately underscore the themes and the attitudes of the songs, start to finish, on the masterful and powerful "Some Girls" album. Keith Richards (and Ronnie Wood - who adds the superb pedal steel guitar licks throughout the album) created such memorable and right on perfect lead guitar licks to accompany the lead vocals that they are more like backing vocals than they are guitar solos and riffs. The deep-throated, adulterous guitar work on "Shattered" is so critical to the delivery of the song that the song sounds empty and naked without it. (Make that a word of warning to cover bands who want to perform Shattered at their gigs. That guitar part had better be perfect!) Never has there been such a perfect marriage of guitar licks and effects to the vocals and lyrics and persona (if you will) of songs on a rock and roll album. Whether you choose to be offended, or you don't, you have to acknowledge the beautiful weave of raunchy, biting lyrics and bawdy vocals to the supporting lead guitar work and recognize that "Some Girls" is, perhaps, the most notable overall work of blues based, gutter borne rock and roll music in the catalog of the Rolling Stones. A true aficionado of rock and roll cannot deny the efforts of Keith and Mick (and the whole band) in creating a powerful and VERY listenable blend of lyrics, vocals and instrumentals to result in one of the finest blues-influenced albums of the rock and roll era! |

No. It is about the bad traits of women who are greedy. I'm pretty sure no sweet and innocent girls ever gravitated toward men like Mick Jagger. If he had ever found a sweet woman and fell into an old fashioned kind of love with her, his career as a Rolling Stone would have ended. Look what happened to Paul McCartney...he was still great, but his balls were cut off when he flip flopped in love with Linda. Hey, I'm all for true love, but it will kill your career if you are a blues man (or woman). |

And it's true. Black chicks rule, you know! By the way, the Stones have all admitted repeatedly throughout their careers that they love black music and they love black girls! Do you know the history behind the song, "Sweet Black Angel"? Jagger and Richards fell in love with a picture of Angela Davis (Black Panther) and hung it on the wall at Nellcote (where Exile on Main Street was created and recorded). The Stones just like to pull on your pubic hairs and make you squirm. They love black women and black music. |
