Music reviews of No Security

Music Review: No Mott
Rating: 5 Stars

The Rolling Stones, the "Greatest Rock 'n' Roll Band in the World", has always been the claim. When you look back over the last forty years, it is a pretty hard one to dispute. Starting off playing Blues covers of their American heroes to a faithful few in South London's Youth Clubs, to worldwide domination of both the album charts and, starting up and then ruling ground breaking huge money making Stadium Rock. Of course, along the way there have been various ups and downs that, if anybody had written down as a work of fiction, people would of claimed it to have been too preposterous to be anywhere near the truth. After a few cover songs to break them into the British charts (including the fabulous 'I wanna be your Man', written for them by "The Beatles"), Jagger - Richards started writing hits of their own, which would in turn be covered by almost every band that followed in their footsteps. Hit albums followed with more hit singles; successful tours in all parts of the globe... Then it all went momentarily wrong. Original leader and guitarist Brian Jones left the band and then mysteriously drowned in his own swimming pool; drug busts and prison sentences (later squashed after famously being compared to using a rack to crush a butterfly in an open letter to "The Times"); a failed Single; difficulty with confectionery; and the keyboard seat becoming about as welcome as the drum stool in Spinal Tap. The boys proved that, although they looked and acted as the proverbial dirty rockers, there was a fair amount of grey matter there too, so more hit singles were written, more international bestselling albums were released, and more than all their peers, The Stones kept on rolling.

As the years rolled past, each album was released to great expectations (some living up to those expectations - some not). Each world tour sold out faster than the last one and to bigger and bigger audiences. Guitarists arrived, two even left. Mick Jagger made terrible movies (I mean have you seen `Freejack'?) and he released even worse solo albums claiming he did not need the rest of the band, and then scampered back to the safety of the Stones when he realized he did. He had more affairs with a string of glamorous and ever younger women than even Casanova was reported to have had. Keith and Ronnie Wood made some reasonable solo albums in their spare time, but not exactly groundbreaking, while Charlie Watts was always just Charlie.

"No Security" is a collection of live songs from the 'Bridges of Babylon Tour'. A nice little memento if you caught the tour or a reminder of what you missed if you didn't. "No Security" is the seventh Stones live album and their second in three years at the time, so by its very notion it could not be a straight collection of songs recorded as in concert running order. You cannot just go banging out versions of 'Jumpin Jack Flash', 'Honky Tonk Woman', and 'Satisfaction' every time like a continues conveyer belt of Greatest Hits every time you go on tour, expecting your loyal fans to keep on forking out their hard earned bucks. On the other hand, when so much work has gone into a tour, why let the Bootleggers get all the money by releasing the live recording? So the Stones took a great attitude and released a collection of songs from the tour that were a little bit special.

On "No Security" the Stones flex their collective musical muscle by opening up with the aptly named "You Got Me Rocking", which immediately has Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood grooving along on guitar with Keith delivering an awe inspiring solo. Next up is the finest version of "Gimme Shelter" this dog has ever heard, the whole band positively shimmers and when it gets to the call and response chorus of "Just A Kiss away", Mick Jagger and the wonderful Lisa Fischer taunt each other to the end. We then get a live version of probably the only good song from the terrible mid-seventies album "Black 'n' Blue" 'Memory Motel'. While a great version, I would still rather have Keith Richards singing his half of the duet rather than special guest Dave Matthews. I mean he does a fair version, but then he is no Keith Richards, but then who is?

The next guest is truly phenomenal though as long time Stone inspiration Taj Mahal gets up to growl his way through a version of his "Corinna". This alone is worth the price of the album. The beautiful ballad "Waiting on a Friend" is an inspired run through with famous jazz saxophonist Joshua Redman taking the solo (Bobby Keys is the regular saxophonist for the Stones and gets his chance to shine on the final track, an extended version of "Out Of Control"). Keith gets his turn in the vocal spotlight with his own "Thief in the Night". The audience gets a chance to sing their collective hearts out with Mick Jagger as the conductor on "Saint of me". "Sister Morphine" from the "Sticky Fingers" album is completely rearranged for this live outing, and the band reach back to 1965 for their third British number one (when it meant something to have a number one hit single). "The Last Time" they play with as much gusto as if they had written it last week. The version of "Respectable" from the "Some Girls" album leaves the studio version in tatters. "Live With Me", the only song here repeated from the proper first Rolling Stones live album "Get Your Ya Ya's Out". It shows the band has lost none of its thunderous ability or master hood of getting down and dirty with the best of them. Nobody plays as sleaze as these boys.

Description of No Security

CD > POPULAR MUSIC > ROCK
This is the seventh live Stones album and the second to appear in three years. Now, what do you want to bet the three men who've appeared on every one of them--Mick, Keith, and Charlie--couldn't name them without a cheat sheet? Chances are, they won't remember this one in five years. Culled from the Bridges to Babylon tour, No Security feels more like a tour memento than a stand-on-its-own recording. The 13 tracks are a mix of familiar chestnuts ("Gimme Shelter," "Live with Me," "The Last Time"), welcome restorations ("Sister Morphine," "Memory Motel"), and tertiary Jagger-Richards tunes ("Flip the Switch," "Thief in the Night"). A few recruits are along for the ride: Taj Mahal turns up on the breath catcher "Corinna," Dave Matthews shares vocals with Mick on "Memory Motel," and jazzman Joshua Redman solos on "Waiting on a Friend." They're all, no doubt, quite proud to have joined these legends on stage and CD. But when they want to hear live Stones, it's a good bet even they will reach for Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out before No Security. --Steven Stolder
