Sympathy for the Devil. But song after song on this album is a knockout. Stray Cat Blues is one of their sleaziest and totally effective. Prodigal Son is among my favorite Stones covers. No Expectations an early dabbling of countrified Stones. Street Fighting Man a classic companion to Jumpin' Jack Flash, imbued with the anger and violence of 1968. Salt of the Earth with an early Keith vocal (shared with Mick, but still), almost cathartic as a relatively soothing finish to a mostly dark and rough album.

 

[Sharp Dressed Man]

Sympathy For The Devil

Sympathy For The Devil . Great album, a true classic, all killer and no filler.

 

[Mr. Bob Dobolina]

"No Expectations" gets my vote. Brian's slide guitar work is fragile and beautiful, probably his last great moment as a Stone.

 

[Hydrazoic Acid]

Dear Doctor. This song is in my Top-10 by Stones at all.

 

[JimJam]

Choices such as Dear Doctor and No Expectations exemplify why this album is so deep with great music, from beginning to end.
