He's hitting the notes but I don't hear much feeling. The harp does sound good, as others have noted, but he's sung better. Maybe a couple of pops before singing like the real bluesmen used to?

I so love you.<br /><br />I'd posit that Don Was is giving his clients what *they* want. They can't be bothered to cook up inspired music, how much patience do you think they have in the studio to get great sounds?<br /><br />If nothing else, the Stones should inspire the next generation of artists to retire gracefully.<br /><br />Noam Sanenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4357001616333664522.post-9216931574383860502016-10-11T08:23:56.074-07:002016-10-11T08:23:56.074-07:00I had the same thought.

So far, I like the single but it's not like it's on auto-repeat.<br /><br />That being said, it's time for the Stones to get rid of Don Was. Each record he does with them sounds worse than the prior one. A Bigger Bang sounds awful (and yes the songs could have been better and some left off entirely) He serves as bridge between Mick & Keith and that's probably why they still employ him.<br /><br />kevin mnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4357001616333664522.post-37235898531609872232016-10-11T05:14:57.850-07:002016-10-11T05:14:57.850-07:00My impression of the Stones is that they haven'...My impression of the Stones is that they haven't given a shit for thirty years or more. They don't have to. Fans still show up and pay incredible amounts of money to watch them go through the motions and go home thinking they've seen the greatest rock and roll band in the world. Why should they bother?sclinchyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18069220308628291546noreply@blogger.com
