Pussy Galore - Exile on Main St
Do I really need to say anything about this? I owned a 5th generation copy of a bootleg that I lovingly wore out. It's the third release from one of the all-time great noise rock bands of all time, covering my favorite Stones record. It's the tribute record by which all others must be judged, and found wanting. I hear Keith Richards had to have his blood replaced again after hearing it. It's an hour of glorious, junky, trashy sound, and, honestly, it makes me happy just to know it exists. The world can't be that bad when we make art like this.
