They're unique in their own ways.

For the average listener, Let It Bleed probably has more accessible songs and is maybe a more polished-sounding record.
Beggars Banquet is a nastier-sounding record that also has great tunes.

Both are classic Rolling Stones albums.

Beggars would stay in my car longer, though I probably like the key songs on Bleed better...

These 2 records have a certain sentimental value as they're the last albums to include...



...the creative/talented/stylish/coolest Stone - Brian Jones.

That they're both stellar, classic albums really goes without saying. It's kinda like asking me if I prefer prime rib or crab's legs for dinner - I'd take both. I guess I slightly prefer Beggar's Banquet, mostly for that nasty sound theAudience mentioned. The classic acoustic blues "no expectations" tips the scales even a little further.

Having said all that, Exile is still my favourite Stones' record. I know it's loaded with filler, but it's the grittiest, meanest sounding filler you'll ever hear in your life, and Tumbling Dice is the greatest thing they've ever done, I'd say...

Rocks Off, Rip This Joint and Tumbling Dice are as confident and powerful as they ever sounded.

Can't wait to dig into it. I'm still reeling after my concert experience last week.

I was fortunate enough to see them in 94. I know people like to make jokes about their age, and knock them as geriatric rockers, but f**k em' - most guys half Mick Jagger's age couldn't do what he does on stage every night for two hours, and no one's ever going to be as cool as Keith. The Stones are still a fine band, and we're lucky to have them around.
