Disco: “Made In the Shade [Digipak]”

Descripción (en inglés)

The Rolling Stones: Keith Richards (vocals, guitar); Mick Jagger (vocals); Mick Taylor, Ron Wood (guitar); Bill Wyman (bass guitar); Charlie Watts (drums). <p>Additional personnel: Bobby Keys (saxophone); Ian Stewart (piano). <p>There is no shortage of Rolling Stones compilations on the market. Some, like the three-disc SINGLES COLLECTION: THE LONDON YEARS, span great stretches of the band's career, while others, like BIG HITS (HIGH TIDE AND GREEN GRASS) focus on a specific era. MADE IN THE SHADE falls in the latter category by concentrating on the first four albums the band released on their own Rolling Stones Records label--STICKY FINGERS, EXILE ON MAIN STREET, GOATS HEAD SOUP, and IT'S ONLY ROCK & ROLL. <p>At a mere 10 tracks, MADE IN THE SHADE doesn't attempt to offer any comprehensive sense of these albums. Instead it is a sampler, giving a quick, cursory overview of the Stones' early-1970s sound. Kicking off with the indelible guitar riff of "Brown Sugar," the collection struts and swaggers through edgy, bluesy grooves ("It's Only Rock & Roll," "Tumbling Dice") and ballads ("Wild Horses," "Angie"), throwing in "Bitch," one of the Stones' greatest--and most overlooked--rockers, for good measure. This satisfying blast of '70s Stones goodness was re-released in 2005 on Virgin with elegant new packaging and beautifully remastered sound.
