The Rolling Stones - Some Girls

In 1977 Keith Richards was getting busted in Toronto for heroin possession while Mick Jagger was spending his nights in New York partying in Studio 54 with the rich and the famous. Meanwhile, music moved on without them as new rock bands emerged, as well as the divergent births of disco and punk. The Rolling Stones absconded to Paris over new year, where they fused their classic transatlantic white-boy blues rock with the hot new trends. In doing so, they revitalised their career with one of the most iconic comeback albums of all time. “Some Girls” is also the 468th Greatest Album of All Time according to Rolling Stone magazine. Christopher and Liam listened to it this week, and got into the nitty-gritty on Bette Middler, the late Charlie Watts, the controversial title track, the controversial album cover, Jagger’s status as a true blue Tory, the Reverend Jesse Jackson, and probably a little bit of John Mulaney.  All that and more, on the 33rd episode in a row of Enjoy An Album.
