Truth to Power

Oh yeah baby…

This is the stuff. I’ve heard two songs off the new Stones album “The Bigger Bang” and they are easily the best stuff these guys have done since “Some Girls”.

“Rough Justice” is an uptempo rocker propelled by Mr. Charlie Watts, while “Back of my Hand” is the stunner. This is almost like listening to an outtake from “Exile”. Weaving slide guitar, swamp harp and Jaggers best black man vocal. If the rest of the record is this good, then we’re in for a treat. There are two other files out there that I haven’t found yet, but here’s links to the two I mentioned:
