Jan 26, 2012This is my favorite Rolling Stones album. You hear so many of their hits on the radio that you tend to forget how great their individual albums are. Exile On Main Street reigns supreme.

Mar 13, 2011Entered the music store and found the reissue of a classic. Exile On Main Street. As a long time Stones fan, I grew up listening to Brown Sugar or Satisfaction, those classic hits. But found in Exile On Main Street the true roots of the Stones sound. Just few seconds into Rock Off opened my mind. An album to love, listen, love, and listen a bit more.

ThomasWMay 29, 2010A great album, but I've always been partial to Let it Bleed, a truly revolutionary album and I think the Stone's best.

RogerSMay 31, 2010This is the best there ever was, Sgt Peppers and the Beatles were over and London Calling and the Clash were yet to arrive. It is one of the most important parts of music and anyone needing an education will find this CD as his guide. Keith and Mick were never to reach this level again but like a rolling stone they kept going and gather no moss. You have to own this one.

Aug 12, 2010Gotta give it up for the stones. They are one of the most influential artists of our time. Exile on Main Street is probably to go down as one of the best albums of all time.

FraserHJun 2, 2010I was not alive when this album was released so can never understand what an impact it made on the music world at the time, but I would say that this album is one of my favourite albums of all time and I never tire of listening to it.

LucaFMay 31, 2010It's the best rock record of all time. Even if the Stones have cut so many immortal hits i think that Exile captures the feeling of rock music. I've read somewhere that the 00's have been the best decade in music. I wonder if those who believe that have ever heard, in this decade, such a great bunch of songs on the very same LP. I'm afraid they don't. Don't they?

Nov 12, 2010Not a particularly good album, certainly not the Rolling Stones' best album (perhaps Let It Bleed wins that prize) and definitely overrated by the critics this time around. It wasn't particularly well received when it first came out, for reasons which are obvious on relistening to it. Not bad, but not that good.

Jul 9, 2013This album represents more than the music itself, it's a provocation to the state, in this case to the U.K. They also are under the influence of drugs That´s always a nice combination.
-
We keep hearing that rock and roll is a feeling, right? The Stones inhabited that feeling seamlessly here, mainly because the murk fizzed and fused those seams together.
-
If allowing Jagger to touch up those vocals was the price to pay to allow Exile receive the tribute it deserves, it's still a bargain.

Never bettered, this is the world’s greatest rock ‘n’ roll band’s crowning triumph. Own this!
