TBH I could never get into them. I like Satisfaction and a couple other early ones, and that's about it.

So no:

Gimmie Shelter
Tumbling Dice
Shine a Light
Sweet Virginia
Start Me Up

I feel like everyone likes those.

Gimme Shelter and Start Me Up are pretty good. The others are meh songs for me. I tend to prefer a more polished sound for my rock 'n' roll.

Gimme Shelter is my absolute favourite song by them. The lady that did the backing vocals actually had a miscarriage on the night that she was called in to record it. I felt quite sad when I heard that.

I think the deal with the Rolling Stones is they bring a lot of History to the table when they play. A bad night of the Rolling Stones is still better then 99.9% of what is going on these days. Even if they all sat around in chairs and played some electric blues I would still say they are better then 99.9% of what we see these days!

I love the Stones, but I think there is still decent music out there being made. I don't how to put it any other way but that you have to turn over a few stones so to speak to find them. Leave no stone unturned when looking for a new band, no pun intended. I found plenty but then again some of them are broken up.

I've been known to call the Stones boring before, and haven't been able to get into them to date. But, since we're listening to Incense and Peppermints in the Psychlub, I thought I'd revisit some other '67 psych classics. After listening to The Doors, Sgt. Pepper's, and Forever Changes, I thought I'd give Their Satanic Majesties Request a spin for the first time. And damned if I don't kinda like it. Especially "She's a Rainbow".

Did they release any other albums like it, and if so, what should I listen to next? I've already heard Exile, Beggars Banquet, and Let it Bleed, in addition to the greatest hits.

All the albums from Beggars Banquet to Exile were great. That was the golden era, imo.

From Goats Head Soup, the ballad Angie comes to mind.

Which is the best GREATEST HITS collection album that the Stones have put out?
We have High Tide And Green Grass (big hits), Through The Past Darkly, Stone Age, Hot Rocks, Mile Stones, More Hot Rocks, No Stone Unturned, Metamorphosis, Made In The Shade, Rolled Gold (The very best of the Rolling Stones), Time Waits For No One, Solid Rock, Slow Rollers, Sucking In The Seventies, Story Of The Stones, Rewind, Singles Collection, Jump Back (best of the Rolling Stones), Forty Licks, Rarities 1971-2003, Grrr.
As you can see the Rolling Stones have been regurgitating their songs through out the past 45 years so it may be hard to pick just one album..................
