The It's Only Rock 'n' Roll Gallery

After the drama and genius of the late sixties and early seventies, It's Only Rock 'n' Roll appeared almost as a relief - a Ronseal record, a straightforward Stones cut, the band doing what they do like nobody else. Keith reckons they lost it because they started working with too many brilliant session men, who took them from their true, Blues path; but the fact is, this is a remarkable and thoroughly enjoyable album, Stones to its soul and an essential part of all records collections, for die hards, afficionados and casual music lovers alike.
