Editorial Review: Album Description: Japanese version of his 2001 studio album includes one Japanese only bonus track, 'If Things Could Be Different'. 13 marked tracks in all including the first single, 'God Gave Me Everything'. Also included is the US/Internationalhidden unmarked bonus track, 'Goddess In The Doorway (Cocktail Version)' at the end of track 13. Amazon.com: Bootleg-savvy Stones fans understand why Mick Jagger's solo albums tend to be curiously pop-precious and testosterone-challenged; if Keith Richards had his druthers, we'd likely have Exile on Main Street Vol. XI by now. Indeed, given Jagger's decades-old rep as the most virile dinosaur of the herd, it can be jarring to have the Vulnerable Mick ponder "Wonder if you catch my mood / Can you feel my solitude?" as the strings well on this album's "Don't Call Me Up." But then, being a caricature so large (and ludicrous) can drive an artist to do desperate things, like sewing his heart firmly to his sleeve in a quest for Truth. Infused with a welcome sense of renewed musical adventure on tracks like the jangly, alterna-nervous Lenny Kravitz collaboration, "God Gave Me Everything," the East-West fusion of the title track, and the modern techno-murk of "Gun" (both cowritten with coproducer Matt Clifford), the icon seems finally to have found a solo persona that fits: Spiritually Awakened World-Weary Rebel. There's even a devoutly uplifting, Pete Townshend-backed duet with Bono ("Joy") that among other things, makes the U2 singer's reservations at Jurassic Park all but official. Still, it's hard to teach an old cur new licks; the best here is undercut by genuflections to chart-conscious predictability (the Rob Thomas collaboration "Visions of Paradise") and hoary-ironic arena-ready sentiments like "Everybody Getting High" (with guest guitar deity/substance abuse expert Joe Perry) that Keith Richards must understand all to well. --Jerry McCulley Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
 Rating:  - UnderratedClassic Mick. As is the case with many Stones / Jagger albums, this album not only holds up over time, but gets better. Rating:  - If you love Mick...Everyone in the Stones is special, but if you love Mick Jagger this is the album for you. I think there is space for Rolling Stones albums and the members' solo albums. I like the variety that the group and the solo albums provide the fans with. The highlights for me on this album were Visions of Paradise, Hideaway and Don't Call Me Up. I bought a copy when it came out and when I moved I had to leave my CDs behind but this is one of the albums I most miss. Rating: - Who's Noticing Her...I Love MickWith Pete Townsend and Lenny Kravitz guesting, how could you go wrong. This album could very well be a Stones album, that's how good the songs and music are. And, Mick did say in an interview I heard that he wrote a few of these songs for the Stones, but they decided not to use them, so he did. I think it's Mick's best work to date. Hope he does some more soon. Even if you're not a fan of his solo stuff, I think you'll really like this one. Rating: - GreatThis album was given to me as a gift because I'm a big Stones fan. I never heard of it or of Mick Jagger doing solo work so I was a bit apprehensive before playing it. Well, it is all I've been playing in my car. I love it. My favorite is "Hideaway"...probably because I know someone who is always talking about doing just what Mick sings about in that song. I play that track over and over. But they are all good. Rating: - I LOVE IT!!!!! AWESOMETHIS IS TRULY A GREAT ALBUM.ITS NOT THE STONES...ITS MICK FROM THE HEART.I LOVE JUST ABOUT EVERY TUNE ON IT.THE BEST IS HIDE AWAY IT MAKES ME FEEL LIKE DRIVING TO THE AIRPORT EVERY TIME I HERE IT! VISIONS OF PARADISE ALSO AWESOME.. I JUST LOVE IT!!!! |
