I rarely listen to Stones albums in this period these days but Dandy has a good list. Although I'd take out Harlem Shuffle (not a patch on the original), Hearts For Sale (just bland), How Can I Stop (wake me up when it's over), and This Place is Empty (zzzz) and replace them with Continental Shift, Thru & Thru, Out Of Control and Rough Justice.

Did Continental Drift make you shift position on the pillow, Mike?

She Was Hot
Tie You Up
One Hit to the Body
Mixed Emotions
For Your Precious Love
LOve Is Strong
The Worst
Like A Rolling Stone
Anybody Seen My Baby
Out Of Control
Saint Of Me
How Can I Stop
She saw me Coming
Under the Radar
Doom And Gloom


In order to trim it down to 15 cuts I had to take out "Feel on Baby", "Hearts For sale", "Flip the Switch", "Laugh I nearly Died"

Actually I drifted off rather nicely into a beautiful Moroccan slumber when I heard it.

><

Saint of Me

Good lists, but missing Laugh I Nearly Died.

She Was Hot
Feel on Baby
Too Tough
Continental Drift
Terrifying
Almost Hear You Sigh
Moon is Up
Sweethearts Together
Thru and Thru
Flip The Switch
You Don’t have to Mean It
How Can I Stop
Oh No Not You Again
Laugh I Nearly Died
Plundered My Soul (of Course from 1972 but I see it as a song given the Tattoo You treatment)

If you want an atypical list, try this...

Too Much Blood (Remix)
Too Tough
Winning Ugly (Remix)
Continental Drift
Slipping Away
Sad, Sad, Sad (Live)
Highwire
I'm Gonna Drive
The Storm
The Moon Is Up
Jump On Top Of Me
Keys To Your Love
Don't Wanna Go Home
Under The Radar
Doom And Gloom

Under the radar
Love is strong
Thru and thru
Out of control
I don't wanna go home
Laugh I nearly died
Saint of me
Slipping away
Doom and gloom
Anybody seen my baby
Lowdown
One hit to the body
It won't take long (don't understand... No love for this?)
Almost hear you sigh
I go Wild

My 'Best Of '83 - present' would be the entire track list of Undercover. I love that album and do not put it at all in the category of the 5 LPs released in the 32 years that followed.

For me, the '86-present best of would look something like this, off the top of my head:

Harlem Shuffle
Sleep Tonight
Can't Be Seen
Slipping Away
Baby Break It Down
The Worst
Sparks Will Fly
Out Of Control
Saint Of Me
You Don't Have To Mean It
Back Of My Hand
Infamy

Hm... That's a lot of Keith. I guess that says something about the last 32 years!

Scrolling up, I notice I should have included Highwire and Rain Fall Down.. Tempted to add Doom and Gloom for the sake of having a post ABB track.
