Customer Rating:      Summary: Rolling Stones Comment: The Rolling Stones album Forty Licks is a great CD to listen to. To buy it new only costs twenty dollars from Wal-Mart. The album was released in 2002. My favorite song off this album is "Beast of Burden". The lead singer is Mick Jagger. This album is rated four out of five stars because it's so great to listen to.
Customer Rating:      Summary: A Strong Compilation Comment: A good compilation that covers all the hits. A good way to introduce yourself to a band with an overwhelming catalog.
Customer Rating:      Summary: GREAT !!!!!!!! Comment: I THINK THIS IS A GREAT ALBUM !!! ANYONE WHO LIKES THE STONES, WOULD LOVE THIS ALBUM.
I DIDN'T LIKE THE BEATLES INITIALLY WHEN THEIR MUSIC FIRST PLAYED. I DIDN'T WANT TO HOLD ANYBODYS
HAND, LOVE LOVE ME DO? NO WAY!!! I COULDN'T GET NO SATISFACTION, EVERYONE OLDER WAS ON THEIR
19TH NERVOUS BREAKDOWN, NOT TO MENTION PAINT IT BLACK. THATS REBELLION, THATS AGNST. THATS
INFLUENCE. NEEDLESS TO SAY THE STONES STILL ROCK.
P.S. TURNS OUT THE BEATLES WERE GREAT !!!! AND THEY WERE RIGHT. ---ALL YOU DO NEED IS LOVE!!
Customer Rating:      Summary: they are all great songs Comment: Great cds. every song was great. Some of them i haven't heard in awhile. definately not a cd that you regret buying because it only has one or two good songs. Everyone should have this one in their collection
Customer Rating:      Summary: The Greatest Rock N' Roll Band in the World? Definately not. Comment: I really don't get it. The Stones are not that good and they are overrated. They got Keith Richmond who is that horrible guitar player who never took lessons. Their vocalist Mick Thornten is horrible too, just cant sing. And that horrible drummer, Willie Whatts he can't drum at all, he never took drum lessons like the great Lars Ulrich. Also, they only made two good songs in their entire career, Start Me Up and Shattered!! All their other songs especially Satisfaction, Sympathy, Honky Tonk, and the horrible Brown Sugar are disgustingly BAD!! This cd may only be for people who don't like good rock music, but if you want great rock music listen to the bands that I like. THe band's that I most recommend are Joe Satriani, Metallica, Dire Straits, Van Halen, Miles Davis, and Dizzy Gillespie. The Rolling Stones, AC/DC, Black Sabbath, The Doors, and U2 are as bad as todays cr@ppy pop music!
Thanks for listening to my review,
For Whom The Bell Tolls (from San Francisco, Seattle, and San Diego, West Coast USA)

The band that proclaimed itself "The Greatest Rock & Roll Band in the World" has long since represented rock's most overarching confluence of art and commerce--with a distinct emphasis on the latter in recent decades--a notion this 40-track, five-decade-spanning anthology can't completely escape. While this is the first anthology to gather hits from the band's entire career, it's the early tunes that highlight one of the Stones' central ironies: virtually their entire "bad boy" reputation was built working for The Man. That original '60s musical arc bounded from '50s rock and R&B revivalism ("Not Fade Away," "The Last Time") to anti-Mop Top aggression ("Satisfaction," "Get Off My Cloud," "19th Nervous Breakdown") to proto-goth cynicism ("Paint It Black," "Have You Seen Your Mother Baby") and psychedelic minstrelsy ("She's a Rainbow," "Ruby Tuesday") to the epitome of blues-based cock rock ("Street Fighting Man," "Jumpin' Jack Flash") in quick succession. Wresting control of their own destinies--and future copyrights--at the end of the '60s, they'd spend the next 30 years largely recycling their earlier incarnation ad infinitum--their music sprinkled with occasionally successful forays into contemporary club and disco fodder ("Some Girls," "Shattered")--and resting on their well-paid laurels. Unfortunately, the listless quartet of new tracks that flesh out this collection seems little more than another business deal to hype their 2002-03 world tour, with "Don't Stop" arguably the weakest in a long string of post-'80s Stones McSingles. If Jagger seems typically detached here, Keith Richards injects some welcome, craggy warmth into the closing barroom lament, "Losing My Touch." But it's also a performance that suggests his legendary band has become little more to him than "The Greatest Day Job in the World." --Jerry McCulley
