Few rock stars have played in the intersection of real life, image, and fans' imaginations as smartly (and comically) as Mick Jagger does on Some Girls. With the Stones again running at top pace, Jagger aims his gimlet eye at his and the boys' gossip-column lives (the Chuck Berryish "Respectable," the archly blues-wailing title track), his collapsing marriage (where was Bianca when Mick's pals were trying to hook him up with the "Puerto Rican girls who're just dyin' to meetchoo?) and the mores and modes of New York society in the Studio 54 era (practically everything here). Slot in Keith's lament "Before They Make Me Run," and this is one of the greatest Stones albums. --Rickey Wright

"the album that saved the Stones" anally remastered

Reviewed in the United States on February 28, 2006

Verified Purchase

I remember well the orginal LP (that my brother brought home and said "don't let Dad hear this!") with the reversable sleeve to change the faces under the wigs. I love this recording and agree with most of the positive reviews here, however I'm writing this as 3 stars because I am deeply disappointed in the remastered version, and since most people looking at this CD are probably already familiar with these songs (unless they've been living in a cave without a radio for the last 25 years). The remastered version just sounds flat on everything from my Event studio monitors to the boom box in my garage. What happened to the let it bleed concept? Where is the air that gave the Stones such a great sound? It is there on my record, but not on this CD release. I think I'm going to find and play the record straight into the computer and make my own CD with NO remastering. Anyway 4 stars to the STones, -1 to those responsible for squashing the sound.

Rock N Roll !

Some Girls, is one of the greatest Rock n roll cds. The Stones rock with some of their best guitar Shattred, Lies, Some Girls, Respectable and When The Whip Comes Down are all great Rock n roll. Far Away Eyes is the only country its lighter than the great stones country. Miss You is a great song great sax solo from Mel Collins and Hamonica from Sugar Blue. Some Girls is one of the stones Five best a great guitar based Rock n Roll cd from The Rolling Stones.

Music is fine - medium is NASTY - stay away!!

Reviewed in the United States on October 15, 2005

Verified Purchase

As other reviews indicate, the music on this CD is awesome.

HOWEVER, the medium on which they sell it is ABSOLUTELY nasty and will not burn to Itunes, will not play on my Sony (PC) CD player, nor will the copied files upload or play on Windows Media Player, Media Jukebox or Itunes. So you buy the music and do not get to use it.

Programs won't even play the MUSIC purchased on this album from a networked drive that does recognize it. This MUSIC is in some kind of toxic format.

DRM control on this MUSIC appears to be here for the protection of those starving artists. Nonetheless, I'd sure like to use the music that I paid for. This was my last Amazon/Stones purchase. Why buy MUSIC that you can't use the way you want to use it?

i recently bought up most of the stones remastered albums, and this is easily my favorite. although all the cuts are delicious by themselves (especially the lyrical "miss you," the satirical "girl with faraway eyes," and the funky "scattered"), what grabs me about this disk is the amazingly vibrant rock & roll energy and the way it captures the feelings of love on the cusp -- love about to go bad, love about to come true, and love in a city that's bigger than you. "look at me, i'm in tatters!" might well be the motto ... this is the stones at their peak.

Let's be sensible, now

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 25, 2009

Verified Purchase

The fact that this lp is, at time of writing, only half a star down on Let It Bleed and Get Yer Ya Yas Out, whose boots it is not fit to lick, is something of a condemnation of the star-rating system. Some Girls has always been given the benefit of the doubt because It's Only Rock and Roll is so dull and plodding and Black and Blue is so silly - although Black and Blue, in fairness, has a fuller, rounder sound than Some Girls and in Hand of Fate one of the best songs the Stones came out with in the 70s. The slide had started with Goats Head Soup, which sees Jagger beginning to "sound like himself" to a disturbing degree while Richards, little by little, begins to disappear.

By this point in their career, there is nothing left of the reckless seriousness of Gimme Shelter; they are left apeing their former selves, with decreasing conviction. Some Girls has been praised for stopping the slide, effectively - and it is true that there is more energy and focus than in their three previous releases. Still, when they sound lazy here, they sound lazy. There is none of the lovely rude layabout laziness of Exile On Main Street on Some Girls. Instead, there is an inability to bring songs to a close when their time is done coupled with an inability to finish songs that lack both light and shade and are simply murky.

One or two songs are finished, however. The title track has rightly been criticised for being sexist, and the line about black girls is inexcusable of course - and that is the entire point of the song, which in four minutes of gratuitous obscenity almost rescues the album from mediocrity. It is a successful piece of masculine posturing, like Under My Thumb and Dear Doctor and the rest of them. Beast of Burden is also funny and swings; it is one of the very rare instances of Jagger messing around with his voice that actually works.

Miss You is also finished, but is a little over-exposed and cannot bear the weight it carries at the front of the record. Nonetheless, the line about the Puerto Rican girls is a hint of what Jagger could have sounded like more often at this point, had he put his mind to it. He sounds amused and enthused, like the kind of friend who wants you to get into trouble because, in a weird way, it would be good for you. To be frank - and most people wouldn't own up to this - I prefer Dance, the opener of Emotional Rescue, to Miss You, even though it is obvious that Dance is actually an attempt to repeat the success of Miss You as a faux disco number.

When the Whip Comes Down also has great lines and, like the title track, almost drags the album over the boundary line into something punchy and great. But too much else is lightweight, particularly Lies and Respectable but most of all Faraway Eyes, which can't help but make you think with longing of Dead Flowers and Country Honk and that other great country joker, Dear Doctor. Likewise, the rather tired and draggy Temptations cover only serves to remind you of the great soul covers on the mid-60s albums, particularly Mercy Mercy on Out of Our Heads. Shattered has been revered for sounding like a response to punk, but like Respectable and Lies it doesn't really go anywhere. On an album of stronger songs, Before They Make Me Run would be happily lowkey. As it is, there feels to be something lacking from it. There is a sad resignation to the riffing, as if the guitarist knows his best days are over and this is just a footnote to a great career.

Good but not great

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 1, 2008

Verified Purchase

This was the very first Stones album I ever bought, and it left me a bit puzzled and, well, slightly disappointed. You see, I had heard Rolled Gold and could also remember the Stones on TOTP playing Angie. So, Some Girls came across to me as a bit lightweight and superficial and not as rock n'roll or even as melodic as I had expected. That being said, it does have some very good stuff on it that has stood the test of time. "Miss You" now seems a very strong track, with its rolling groove, and "When The Whip Comes Down" is tongue in cheek and fun. (I also liked it a lot more when I found I could play most of the song on guitar using just 2 chords!) "Just My Imagination" is fine but just doesn't fire me up. "Some Girls" on the other hand is a classic, not only for the tune but equally for having a great lyric, something I so miss in later Stones albums. "Lies" is filler as far as I'm concerned and should have been cut and replaced with something like "Everything Is Turning To Gold". "Faraway Eyes" is one of my favourites. Criticised at the time for Jagger having turned in a pastiche performance I think it works very well and, again, has great lyrics. Sounds good live too. "Respectable" sounds great on first hearing but doesn't bear constant repetition and now looks like the Stones trying too hard to write a Stones rocker. It just doesn't have enough light and shade in it. "Before They Make Me Run" is one of Keith's best uptempo numbers as well as having a lyric that tells a personal tale. "Beast Of Burden" is the third killer track on the album and charted well in the States - unusual for a Stones second release. Finally, "Shattered" is all bluff and bluster and just about delivers, but it's a close run thing. All in all pretty good, but not the powerhouse it was claimed by many to be. For example, I don't think it is any better than It's Only Rock n'Roll or Goats Head Soup, although compared to Emotional Rescue it is a work of genius!

Some Girls, Virgin Records remaster 1994 CDV2734

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 12, 2022

Verified Purchase

This is the only Stones album in my collection after the departure of Mick Taylor. So, I have everything from their debut up to and including Only Rock n Roll. Ronnie is a fine guitarist, but I never saw the point in having another “Keith” in the band. The result has been a dearth of distinctive guitar solos ever since, replaced by two people seemingly intent on playing over the top of each other. The “musicality” of Mick Taylor (and indeed Brian Jones in the distant past) was replaced by “party time”.

That said, this album certainly contains it fair share of really good songs: Miss You, Beast of Burden, Respectable, Far Away Eyes for example. It’s an album to have a good time to on a hot summer day, with not a Mr D in sight, nor any other being in need of Sympathy. (And Charlie is especially great throughout).

In my opinion the Virgin Records remaster 1994 CDV2734 is the best. Later remasters are I think rather heavy handed.

I replaced this album on cd recently ( I had it on vinyl on its release in 1978) and have to say I'd forgotten just how good it is. Perhaps the last really great Stones album, it's full of real rockers, plus the obligatory ballad (Miss You) and country song (Faraway Eyes), which showcase the band at its best. Like Keith said "A lot of bands play rock, but they've forgotten the roll. We're the roll." Spot on, as per!
