 Linda Q September 1, 2008
This is one of the best Stones albums ever!!! I love the way they poke fun (especially about New York in Shattered.) Every song on this album is different in its own way and you just cannot sit still. If you can sit still during this album you are surely dead. After dancing around for the whole album I am pooped. It is GREAT. One of their best.
A great album from rock's greatest singles band August 19, 2008

I've always found The Rolling Stones to be a great singles band whose albums often come up a bit short. SOME GIRLS does not suffer from this let down as all the songs are of premium quality. Starting out with the proto-disco of "Miss You," There really isn't a let down throughout. From the wicked "When The Whip Comes Down" to the intense "Shattered," this is a recording that is Stones classic. Mick is fully engaged, vocals that go from the conceit of "Some Girls" to the country croon of "Far Away Eyes" without a hitch. He sells the sexual growl as easily as the bluesy asides; few rockers can compare with Mick when he's at the top of his game. Richards' works with his usual assurance; with Wood fleshing out the sound to create a slashing force across all the rockers and laying back when restraint is called for, like on Beast of Burden." Wyman and Watts continue their eternal support with Watts holding everything together with his tight drumming. Even a casual fan needs to make this one part of their collection.
Knuckle sandwich August 7, 2008
Here's where the Stones mythology enters their modern era of decay, the "Start Me Up" admission of impending codgerdom ("I just don't have that much jam"). They even managed a banned cover, not so easy in the late 70's. Impervious, oblivious, grunting, grumpy and leering, they grind through a bar band's second-rate set of grimacing guitar rockers, slouchy and tired. That is the beauty of it, the Stones finally become those ancient jaded bluesmen they once emulated. It's diabolical to be so old and utterly immature.
there are nice songs on this album May 16, 2008
this is a nice album. there are nice songs on this album. the cover art is nice. the cut-out jacket with the interchangeable sleeve promotes an element of fun. the musical contributors are very talented with their upbeat songs and childish humor. the singer is particularly enthusiastic with finger-snapping guitar music.

Those who are seeking to expand your Rolling stones collection or begin it, I'd leave this around the bottom of the list. Starts off great with "Miss You" then has trouble until "Far Away Eyes" runs into a road block again, but finishes terrifically with "Shattered" and "Beast of Burden".
