...It's a piece of shit album. Their worst ever.
What an eloquent, detailed analysis.
When something like DIRTY WORK sucks so bad it doesn't need a 10 page thesis about why.
Spare me your platitudinous appeals.
LOL, I'm gonna start posting w/ a thesaurus too.

Your fatuous infatuation of said DW album is quite discommoding.
(damn, i don't even know what i said!!)

I'll have to chime in here.
I will never understand people's love for this album. I have tried for 25 years to find something that I like about it. Every time I come up with the same conclusion, that "Harlem Shuffle" and "One Hit To The Body" are ok tracks. "Sleep Tonight" and "Had It With You" are decent. But otherwise it's un-melodic agressive tracks, with Jagger yelling lyrics over a pre-recorded backing tracks: "Fight", "Hold Back", "Dirty Work". Or even worse, Stones going 80's style, with two of their worst tracks ever: "Winning Ugly" and "Back To Zero". Then Keith makes a cover of an old tune in "Too Rude", which is not at all impressive.
I have honestly listened to this album even more than others I like better. I have listened to try and figure out what it is that some finds so fantastic about it. I have yet to discover it.
As I hear it, it's their worst and most disfunctional album ever.

You do have a point - all albums feature vocals over pre-recorded tracks. As in previously, anyway.

Indeed. Except that Jagger had something more interesting to say on the other tracks, other than singing about punching people in the face etc.

Sorry. No. There's no improving a pile of shit other than to make it bigger and smellier.

The Rolling Stones: Dirty Work (Rolling Stones, 1986) Dreaming of solo glory, Mick doesn't have much time for his band these days--just plugged into his Stones mode and spewed whatever he had to spew, adding lyrics and a few key musical ideas to tracks Ron and Keith completed before the star sullied his consciousness with them. And I say let him express himself elsewhere.
