Rolling Stones, The - It's Only Rock And Roll album flac

It's Only Rock 'n Roll is the 12th British and 14th American studio album by The Rolling Stones, released in 1974. It was the last Rolling Stones album for guitarist Mick Taylor and the songwriting and recording of the album's title track had a connection to Taylor's eventual replacement, Ronnie Wood. The album also marked the 10th anniversary since the release of the band's debut album, The Rolling Stones.

It’s a rock ‘n’ roll album because it’s so goddamn violent. At its simplest level the album deals with the psychosis of being in a rock ‘n’ roll band and having made it as a star - and it does that better than the Who’s opus devoted exclusively to that subject, Quadrophenia. By now, you can’t tell whether the Stones are singing about people who watch them or people they live with. That confusion is enhanced by the tightness with which the album’s producers, the Glimmer Twins, have welded it to the title track. The verses to It’s Only Rock ‘n Roll sound like an assault on the audience. If I could stick a pen in my heart/I’d spill it all over the stage. It’s only when they get to the bridge that their real target comes into focus: Do you think that you’re the only girl around/I’ll bet you think that you’re the only woman in town.

It's uneven, but at times It's Only Rock 'n Roll catches fire. The songs and performances are stronger than those on Goats Head Soup; the tossed-off numbers sound effortless, not careless.

It's Only Rock 'n Roll is the 12th British album by The Rolling Stones, and their 14th American album. Ain't Too Proud to Beg - 3:30 - Lyrics.
