Music reviews of Beggars Banquet (Mlps)
Music Review: One of the Best from the Greatest Group on Earth
Rating: 5 Stars
From the first drum beat on "Sympathy for the Devil" to the last guitar strum on "Salt of the Earth" you are treated to a rock and roll experience with this record. The music is outstanding, the lyrics are meaningful. In my opinion this record marks a turning point for the Greatest Group on Earth. It's with "Beggars Banquet" that they join the ranks of the Beatles and Dylan as poets of a generation. Heck, more than a generation, they're still at it, still writing songs that matter. But this record -- from the wake up call of "Sympathy," to the kind of folksy, bluesy "Parachute Woman, to the mournful violin in "Factory Girl" -- tells you and shows you, or rather showed the boomer generation, that the Stones were a band to be reckoned with, a band that was going to be around for awhile and anybody back then who didn't see it just didn't have her rock and roll head screwed on straight.

Description of Beggars Banquet (Mlps)
Limited edition vinyl pressing of this beloved Stones album featuring the original artwork. Decca.Opening with "Sympathy for the Devil," the Stones' infamous we-are-evil poem, this all-original 1968 album began a quality streak almost unmatched in rock & roll. Mick Jagger begins writing from the working-class hero's perspective--especially on the anthem "Street Fighting Man" and "Salt of the Earth"--and Keith Richards buttresses his partner with rock-solid slide licks recently graduated from the School of Old Blues Records. "Jig-Saw Puzzle," which inexplicably never became a hit, is the only known instance of Jagger's describing the Stones' individual personalities in verse. --Steve Knopper
Beggars Banquet is among the Stones two or three greatest albums, so it's also among the very best rock & roll albums ever made. Though known for its twin anthems of social decay, "Sympathy For The Devil" and "Street Fighting Man," it's actually the album's gritty yet beautiful acoustic country and country-blues numbers--"Dear Doctor," "Prodigal Son," "No Expectations," "Factory Girl"--that has helped Beggars stand up so effectively through the years--that and the fact that Keith Richard's lyrics here often come as close to sincerity as he's capable. When he sings "Let's drink to the hard working people," for once you almost believe him. --David Cantwell
