Emotional Rollercoaster Ride of GenresThe Stones have done so many tunes that you'd think they'd get caught in a rut and do the same thing over and over. Oh no, not these guys. They dabble in just about everything and anything whether it's disco on Dance (Part 1) or Summer Romance, reggae on Send It To Me, straight ahead blues rock on Let Me Go, Where The Boys Go, and She's So Cold, slow ballads on Indian Girl and All About You, slow blues on Down In The Hole, or whatever you want to call it on Emotional Rescue (maybe a Bee Gees sort of thing?
Reggae meets Disco? I don't know).They haven't been a band that's been kept in check by genre for some time, and they're not about to start on this album. They give us another good variety album with Emotional Rescue that has quite a few different influences. I'd love to be with t hem when they sit down and decide to write a song.
'Should we write a kick ass rock tune? Next time, they're like, 'Hey I heard this cool Bee Gees song on the radio, let's do something like that.' Or 'I heard some cool Bob Marley the other day, why don't we do a reggae song just for the heck of it. We've done everything else why not?'
They've done so many different things that it's sometimes scary, yet they stay true to themselves and don't stray too far from themselves that they do something that they can't do. They keep everything in taste, and Keith Richard's solos are always bluesy and in taste regardless of the style of music that they're performing. They just don't want to keep doing the exact same thing, instead they test their boundaries. Sometimes they do something that turns a lot of heads like Emotional Rescue, and people wonder what the heck they're thinking. The Stones don't seem to care what other people think. Their fans might not like it at first, but after they listen for a while, they get it too.
The Stones just want to do their own thing, which is to grow as a band and dabble in new kinds of music (and maybe dabble in some drugs on the way, maybe that's a big influence on their music as well). Well, more power to them. They've been doing this since they came into existence, the only difference is that at the beginning they weren't as comfortable with much more than blues.
Now they like to experiment with every type of music that they can musically and vocally perform. Sometimes they take risks and sometimes they turn heads, but in the end it's the entire work that has to be looked at.I love every Stones album, and even if some parts are a little strange, I find something cool in just about every song that they do. Most of their songs are really good on this album, my favorite being She's So Cold. That one has been one of my favorites that they have done, and I was sorry to see it left off of 40 Licks, their latest greatest hits compilation. But when you have so many hits, there are always going to be omissions just like Goats Head Soup's Heartbreaker.

There aren't too many songs on here that casual fans would recognize, but I still think it's a pretty good album for the title track and She's So Cold alone. She's So Cold is a classic straight ahead rock tune, which I especially enjoy. Mick is at the top of his game vocally and lyrically on this one, Charlie Watts has some really cool fills, the back and forth guitar from Keith Richards and Ron Wood are cool, and you can actually hear Bill Wyman's bass lines, which is cool because I think he is an underrated bass player.
