CD Times - The Rolling Stones Exile On Main St. was the point at which the experimentation of the preceding decade moved aside for a sound that would be carbon-copied over the next thirty years. Released in 1972 but recorded in 1971 whilst The Rolling Stones were in tax exile in the South Of France, Exile On Main St. is the sound of a band coming to terms with all they were to do from that point on. Exile On Main St. is truly outstanding, really being blisteringly good, and if you already have Let It Bleed and Singles Collection - The London Years, this ought to be your very next Rolling Stones purchase. www.cdtimes.co.uk /content.php?contentid=85   (337 words)

Rolling Stone : The Rolling Stones: Exile On Main St. : Music Reviews Exile On Main Street is the Rolling Stones at their most dense and impenetrable. Exile On Main Street appears to take up where Sticky Fingers left off, with the Stones attempting to deal with their problems and once again slightly missing the mark. And with Exile On Main Street, the Stones have chosen to sustain for the moment, stabilizing their pasts and presenting few directions for their future. www.rollingstone.com /artists/therollingstones/albums/album/236885   (2214 words)

The Rolling Stones : Exile On Main Street <> Aptly named, the sound and feeling of exile permeates the album--whatever lyrics can be deciphered through the murky haze of the chateau basement production style hint at alienation and disillusionment, while behind it all the band seems entirely disconnected from the outside world, unable to truly relate to anything but their music. Virtually every song on Exile is a classic, and like any great recording, it should be listened to in its entirety while in an ideal frame of mind. Exile was recorded in the South of France in a sprawling villa the band had rented while exiled from their homeland due to tax problems. www.inkblotmagazine.com /rev-archive/stones.htm   (599 words)

Phyllis Pollack: The Making of Exile on Main Street Most of the tracks that comprise Exile On Main Street were recorded at the Villa Nellcote, a mansion facing the sea on the French Riviera. hotographer Dominique Tarlé has documented the recording of the masterpiece album by the Rolling Stones, Exile On Main Street, thirty years after its release. Stunners on Exile that were recorded there include such classics as "Happy," "Tumblin' Dice" and "Sweet Black Angel," an ode to black activist Angela Davis, while the memorable "Sweet Virginia" was an outtake from the indelible Let It Bleed. www.counterpunch.org /pollackexile.html   (1250 words)

Steven Rubio's Online Life: exile on main street The trick is, by the time I got old enough to understand Exile on Main St., the band had moved on, and listening to the album was as much an exercise in nostalgia as it was a confrontation with greatness. I wouldn't say Exile on Main St. is my favorite Stones album, but then, I don't imagine most of the critics who rank it so high would necessarily call it their fave, either. In the case of Exile, you could choose Side One of Album One, and hear five of the rip-roaringest rock and roll songs ever recorded. begonias.typepad.com /srubio/2004/01/exile_on_main_s.html   (687 words)

Observer Sticky Fingers & Exile on Main S, The Rolling Stones Fans and critics alike have drooled for decades over Let It Bleed and Exile on Main St, but Fingers is surely the Rolling Stones's greatest single long-player. A movable feast of stoned cronies, Exile is rough and ready, torn and frayed, a grab-bag of Americana that's equal parts Gram Parsons ('Sweet Virginia'), gumbo swamp-blues (Slim Harpo's 'Shake Your Hips'), and Laurel Canyon gospel ('Let It Loose', 'Shine a Light'). All rock records should be made in the dank basements of old Nazi strongholds on the Côte d'Azur, with reliable heroin connections in Marseille and Gram Parsons hovering in the panelled hallways. observer.guardian.co.uk /print/0,3858,4948702-111639,00.html   (884 words)

The Rolling Stones : Exile on Main St. - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect Few other albums, let alone double albums, have been so rich and masterful as Exile on Main St., and it stands not only as one of the Stones' best records, but sets a remarkably high standard for all of hard rock. A sprawling, weary double album encompassing rock & roll, blues, soul, and country, Exile doesn't try anything new on the surface, but the substance is new. Jagger's vocals are buried in the mix, and the music is a series of dark, dense jams, with Keith Richards and Mick Taylor spinning off incredible riffs and solos. www.artistdirect.com /nad/store/artist/album/0,,156073,00.html   (356 words)

Amazon.com: Exile on Main Street: Music: Rolling Stones On "Exile on Main St." the Stones synthesized Chuck Berry-style guitar rock, blues, and country influences to create a new and previously unheard of hard rock style. In essence the Stones invented, on "Exile on Main St.," an original style of hard rock that neither they, nor anyone else, has duplicated since. Exile was the next album after Sticky Fingers, an album which is a strong candidate for the best Stones album ever. www.amazon.com /exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000000W5L?v=glance   (1435 words)

Genesis Publications: The Reviews: Exile Dominique Tarlé's photographic documentary of the recording of Exile On Main Street (as featured in MOJO 98) is a thing of ruined beauty - like the stills from a lost movie or a fantastical photo-album glimpsed in a brief opium dream of out-of-grasp rock stardom. Tarlé's intimate shots - taken during the Stones' 1971 stay in the south of France to record Exile on Main St. - capture Keith, Mick, and various hangers-on in the studio and in repose; coupled with an insightful text, it's a rare glimpse at the creative process.' That year, a tax bill of staggering size propelled the band members, with their families and entourage, to move to France, where they made the 'Exile on Main St' album. www.genesis-publications.com /news/reviews_exile.html   (1712 words)

RE: Exile is 100% perfect What IS important is that Exile on Main St. is all about emotion, feeling and reality (the good kind of reality, sometimes it's the kind of reality that may or may not be really real). Exile on Main St. comes from dark, scary, lonely, very ancient places.

Reviews: The Rolling Stones However, if you are willing to skip the singles, go right to 1972's Exile On Main St., one of the great rock and roll records of all time, free of overproduction, synthesizers, and commercialism. Hopefully with the recent lull in Stones activity he will decide to try again with another solo album, because there is a hell of a lot of potential for a great record with both Keith and the band. With so many different styles, it is remarkable that the band made the album sound coherent, but it flows very well, and should be listened to at least once all the way through uninterrupted. members.aol.com /WalrusOct9/stones.html   (3595 words)

Daily Vault - April 7, 2005 Regarded as one of the best double-albums of all time and a cornerstone of rock, the only major debate surrounding the Rolling Stones' Exile on Main St. is whether or not it's their best recording. Many critics have taken turns switching Exile On Main St. with Let It Bleed and more recently, Aftermath as the Rolling Stones' finest hour (the same thing happens with the Beatles -- in the 1980s, most critics thought Sgt. Strung out, no doubt suffering from periods of disillusion and depression, the Rolling Stones entered Keith Richards's moldy mansion and had enough of a solid head on their shoulders to come out with a double-album of blues, RandB and rock fusion that sounded like nothing they had recorded before. www.dailyvault.com /2005_04_07-sm.html   (491 words)

Bill Janovitz .com I have written a book on the Rolling Stones' Exile on Main St. for Continuum Books' 33 1/3 series. But for me, the sheer scope of Exile, the double album as a whole, as well as all the high points contained within, make it the peak of the Stones’ career. I think the records from 1968 starting with Beggar’s Banquet, and running through Exile, is one of the greatest string of recordings of any artist or band. www.billjanovitz.com /misc.html   (1498 words)

The Rolling Stones' Exile on Main St. (33 1/3) - shop.derkeiler.com Product Guide Any Clash fan who questions why "London Calling" always comes after "Exile on Main St." as the best rock record ever made will understand why after reading Janovitz's prose. To be honest, I would've preferred a few hundred more pages about Exile, but Janovitz crams a lot into this little book. The descriptions Janovitz gives of his experiences with the record are easily related to anyone who grew up in a suburban/urban area during that time-frame. shop.derkeiler.com /products/asinsearch_082641673X   (348 words)

Rock Of Ages: Hall Of Fame - The Rolling Stones Every album the group released through the early Seventies - from The Rolling Stones in 1964 to Exile on Main Street in 1972-- is essential not simply to an understanding of the music of that era, but to an understanding of the era itself. Beggars Banquet (1968), Let It Bleed (1969), Sticky Fingers (1971) and Exile on Main Street (1972) routinely turn up on lists of the greatest albums of all time, and deservedly so. In their intense interest in blues and RandB, the Stones connected a young American audience to music that was unknown to the vast majority of white Americans. www.rock.co.za /rockofages/hof_stones.html   (1349 words)

The Daily Egyptian Newspaper Online But to understand what has kept the band from fading into a nostalgic act, one must listen to its phenomenal album "Exile On Main St." Exiled from their English homeland for drug charges, the members of the Stones retreated to the basement of guitarist Keith Richards' mansion in France to begin work. With the massive Rolling Stones "Bridges to Babylon" tour rolling into St. Louis in less than a month, the time may be appropriate to examine what has made the band one of the most long-lived and significant bands in rock history. www.dailyegyptian.com /fall97/112197/weekender/cd-archive.html   (321 words)

Boston.com / A&E / Calendar / Letting it loose The Rolling Stones' ''Exile on Main St." was ''a key that unlocked a world for me," writes Bill Janovitz in his book, also called ''Exile on Main St." It's part of the ''331/3" paperback book series, in which a younger musician writes about a seminal album in his life. Grateful Dead percussionist Mickey Hart has played with myriad bands over the years, but this is the first time he's joined an existing group, a young band called Particle, renamed Hydra now that Hart's in tow. They'll play about a half-dozen tunes from ''Exile" as well as covers of period songs. www.boston.com /ae/events/articles/2005/04/21/letting_it_loose?mode=PF   (580 words)
