Don't miss out Digitally re-mastered by Bob Ludwig at Gateway Mastering, - Portland, Oregon. Long Out of Print and a part of the Very Limited Edition 5,000 LP Millennium Series put out by EMI. SOME GIRLS, includes the hits “Beast of Burden” and “Shattered” and one of the biggest selling singles of The Rolling Stones career -- the disco crossover -- Miss You. The title track caused its share of controversy when its lyrics were attacked as sexist and racist. Possibly fearing the aging dinosaur label the hunk climate of 1978 New York City SOME GIRLS rocked harder and more consistently than most Stones Albums of the seventies. Revitalized by the chummy guitar dynamic between Keith Richards’ impressionist riffs and Ronnie Woods’ perfectionist lead work, the Album’s merit is in the diversity of its tracks. Starting with the disco elixir of Miss You, SOME GIRLS marked new territory for the band. As Ronnies second Album as an official member, the Album showed that The Stones sound had reworked itself proving there was more to their dynamic than just White Boy Blues. The range of Ronnie’s guitar work spans from the searing country lead in Far Away Eyes to the near rockabilly twang in Shattered and finds The Stones tighter and more excited than on their previous albums. From placing their stamp on The Temptations Just My Imagination to the big city neurosis of When The Whip Comes Down and Shattered. 1978 SOME GIRLS is a wild rumpus throughout. The New Musical Express gave this LP an excellent rating.Justly considered one of the finest works by Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts, Bill Wyman and Ronnie Wood, Some Girls topped the US charts over three decades ago and remains the best selling album of their storied career. Some Girls is the Rolling Stones' most direct and diverse collection of material from Mick Jagger's irresistible falsetto on the four-on-the-floor filler Miss You, their eighth US number one, to the country-flavored Far Away Eyes via the Chuck Berry meets punk snarl of Respectable. And let's not forget the sensuous, Beast of Burden, one of Keith Richards' finest tunes, which reached number 8 on the US singles chart, the garage rock Shattered, the albums' third US Top 40 entry, and the soulful swagger of the group's version of The Temptations' "Just My Imagination", another timeless offering in their canon of classic Stones Motown covers.Following the critical praise and commercial success afforded the re-mastered, expanded editions of Exile On Main Street, which matched the chart performance of the epochal 1972 album, and returned the Rolling Stones to their rightful place at the top of the British charts in 2010, the extensive reissue of Some Girls constitutes the next step in the band's ongoing relationship with Universal Music Group. Some Girls holds a special place in the history of the Rolling Stones and demonstrates why they remain one of the most thrilling and influential bands of all time. The 1978 album features a Keith Richards' classic "Before They Make Me Run", a signature song he still performs defiantly to this day. Some Girls documented Mick Jagger's love of 1970's funk reflected in Miss You, the dance track that wrong footed many people, made the club and black charts, and made it okay for other mainstream acts at the time to 'go disco'.The 1978 album courted controversy because of Jagger's tongue-in-cheek lyrics on the title track, on Miss You and on Respectable, perceived as a retort to the punk and new wave groups who had borrowed so much attitude and copped so many anti-establishment moves from the Rolling Stones. Ironically, the furor around the elaborate Some Girls package, designed by Peter Corriston and featuring the band members in drag - a nod in the direction of the picture on the 1966 single Have You Seen Your Mother, Baby, Standing in the Shadow? - and likenesses of Lucille Ball, Farrah Fawcett, Raquel Welch, Judy Garland and Marilyn Monroe that hadn't been legally cleared, necessitating a swift withdrawal and rethink.Some Girls demonstrated the distinctive and definitive riffing from Keith Richards, with its abundance of unstoppable licks and majestic power chords driving the band into its brand new musical direction. This album not only defined him and his playing, but also defined a new era for the Rolling Stones, with Richards since described as a 'sense of renewal'. Some Girls marks the only other time since recording Satisfaction where Richards used an effects pedal to 'elevate' the sound.The album cemented the position of guitarist Ronnie Wood, who had joined in 1975, and added his trademark slide and pedal steel playing to several of the album's most memorable tracks, including "When the Whip Comes Down" and "Shattered". He also co-wrote the Shattered B-side "Everything Is Turning To Gold". Some Girls also marked a move to the Pathe Marconi Studios in Paris for the Glimmer Twins production team of Jagger and Richards. These factors helped what is arguably the group's most focused and dynamic album, driven by the sans pareil rhythm section of drummer Charlie Watts and bassist Bill Wyman. Some Girls featured fewer guest musicians than any Rolling Stones album since 1971, but the contributions keyboard-player Ian McLagan, Wood's bandmate in The Faces, saxophone-player Mel Collins, and harmonica player Sugar Blue - discovered busking on the Paris metro - made Miss You in particular sound brighter than ever.Thirty-three years on from its original release, the re-mastered vinyl edition of Some Girls show why the 1978 album has often been hailed as the equal of Exile On Main Street. Some Girls is both a time capsule and a timeless listen. It features the band at their tightest and toughest, at their most vibrant and vital. It's an all-killer, no filler, must-have album. It still packs a punch!"The Stones were in Toronto, rehearsing for their classic gigs at the El Mocambo Club, when Jagger, jamming with R&B legend Billy Preston, came up with "Miss You." With a disco groove and a touch of the blues via a harmonica player they found in a Paris subway, it became the band's first Number One hit in five years. "It's not really about a girl," Jagger said. "The feeling of longing is what the song is." - Rolling Stone "By 1978, the Stones were in turmoil, after trouble with drugs, women and the law. On 'Beast of Burden,' they faced up to their struggles with world-weary defiance. On other takes, Jagger tried the song in falsetto, but his straight-ahead version went to the Top 10." - Rolling Stone Selections: Side One: 1. Miss You2. When the Whip Comes Down3.
