Play 90 second soundbite of 'Put Me In The Trash' @ 'CD quality'
Seventeen tracks that sum up the great man - seventeen tracks to carry you off into the vibrant musical world of one of the world's most successful artists - seventeen absolutely typical Jagger tracks that you'll either love for what they are or hate coz you feel Jagger just aint what you want him to be. Well, tough! Like it or not Mick Jagger has his place in world musical history as a solo artist and the tens of thousands, if not millions, who believe in him will simply love this 'best of' release.
Jagger never pulled any punches and even here you'll find him just as you remember him but you'll also find the broader picture, the whole Jagger - the raunchy, soulful rocker that can turn his hand to almost anything and come up smellin' of sweet roses. Me, I prefer the subtle blues side of Jagger, the gritty voice against the cutting pickin' or slide guitar, simple but hard-hittin' - but I'll take anything the man throws at me at the end of the day coz there's just so much more to the man than that and here you'll experience just about every facet of Jagger in all sorts of time scales, all sorts of styles, all sorts of emotions. Can't ask for much more really!
'The Very Best Of Mick Jagger' is like a story-book of the man's musical way. And, whichever way the man turns he seems to find exactly the right recipe with clever, meaningful songs done to an absolute turn. Turn this little bugger up and let it rip to get the most out of what's on offer - if at first you're not sure, it won't be long before you're singing along to even the most 'obscure' of his works - what a great album!!
Mick Jagger, let's be brutally honest, doesn't need the likes of Toxic Pete to help him on his way (as much as I'd like to think otherwise!) - 'The Very Best Of Mick Jagger' is simply an awesome tribute to one of the greatest musical stars of all time - great in the car, fantastic for parties - just superb no matter where you choose to listen to it. Surely 'The Very Best Of Mick Jagger' will further bolster the massive financial coffers of Mr Music!!
