Comments on: The Rolling Stones – Their Satanic Majesties Request http://headfullofsnow.com/rolling-stones-satanic-majesties-request/ Wed, 08 Feb 2012 20:20:59 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v= By: Andrew http://headfullofsnow.com/rolling-stones-satanic-majesties-request/comment-page-1/#comment-1720 Andrew Wed, 28 Sep 2011 03:56:48 +0000 http://headfullofsnow.com/?p=191#comment-1720 A couple of notes: 1. I always thought "Child Of The Moon" was a Beggars Banquet track. I could be wrong though, though it does fit the overall vibe of both Banquet and Majesties, and would be right at home on either album 2. No mention of "The Lantern" or "2000 Man"? Two gems that also pointed the way for Beggars Banquet and Let It Bleed, and the case of the latter, some humorously prophetic lyrics about dating computers and flashing brains. Overall, an underrated gem, and if you replace "Sing This All Together (See What Happens)" and the last three minutes of "Gomper" with "We Love You" and "Dandelion", and you've got another masterpiece on par with their Golden-era works.
