Jemsum Crow, it really HAS been 27 years since this album came out! This is the one that shouldn't have come off; lots of sloppy playing, lyrics that are worse to dicipher than usual, bunches of filler tracks here and there, etc.. But the whole thing somehow works, from the chugging openings of "Rocks Off" and "Rip This Joint" to the ersatz country of "Sweet Virginia" and the more genuine country-folk of "Sweet Black Angel," to "Tumbling Dice" to "Happy" to "All Down The Line" to, bro' and sistren, the list is endless. 27 years old and could've been recorded yesterday! A great album from, um, well, certainly, ONE of the world's greatest rock'n roll bands!
