Music Head Wrote:from my library (vinyl)



Good to pull out a true classic every now and then. This is the groups 11th or 13th album, depending on which side
of the ocean you live on. I live on this side, they lived on that side. At their peak period, where anything was a
#1. The Beatles breakup gave them that honor. Their third consecutive #1 album here in the string of eight. At this
point the group was doing better here than in the UK. Recorded in Jamaica as Mick claimed it was one of the few
countries that would let him in. Lead single of Angie went straight to #1. The label objected to the ballad as a
single, but the band ruled. Follow up single was Heartbreaker which went to #15. Surprised the unedited version of
Star Star was allowed to stand at the time. It was censored for a later release. Tipper Gore must have stepped in.
Love five of the ten tracks here, with nothing I don't like. Rock on boys!

I LOVE THIS ALBUM

Worst Track - Can You Hear The Music

Best Track - Angie

Angie, Angie, when will those clouds all disappear?
Angie, Angie, where will it lead us from here?
With no loving in our souls and no money in our coats
You can't say we're satisfied
But Angie, Angie, you can't say we never tried
Angie, you're beautiful, but ain't it time we said good-bye?
Angie, I still love you, remember all those nights we cried?
All the dreams we held so close seemed to all go up in smoke
Let me whisper in your ear:
Angie, Angie, where will it lead us from here?

Oh, Angie, don't you weep, all your kisses still taste sweet
I hate that sadness in your eyes
But Angie, Angie, ain't it time we said good-bye?
With no loving in our souls and no money in our coats
You can't say we're satisfied
But Angie, I still love you, baby
Ev'rywhere I look I see your eyes
There ain't a woman that comes close to you
Come on Baby, dry your eyes
But Angie, Angie, ain't it good to be alive?
Angie, Angie, they can't say we never tried
