This remains remains by far the most controversial album the Rolling Stones released; more because of its unusual musical direction than the "diabolical" title (the 60's, people).
Though "Aftermath" "Beggar's Banquet" and "Sticky Fingers" are more popular albums, TSMR is an underrated masterpiece which time is slowly redeeming. It makes one wonder what could have been, if only Jagger and his pals had chosen to follow this path, as The Beatles did. You be the judge.

  • Why the name? also:Goatshead soup,

    and then "sympathy for the devil"

    Were they just flirting with the occult or were they true practicers of devil worship?

  • The title is simply a play on the inscription found on British passports: "Her Britannic Majesty requests and requires..." The satanic bit only enhances their bad boys image. They weren't interested in the occult, and they certainly weren't (and aren't) devil worshippers.

  • and considering that they produced it themselves...an excellent album!

  • Very good album, not their best...but by NO means bad. In a way, this is more psychedelic than Sgt. Pepper, you truley feel like you're tripping when you listen to some of these tracks. Sing This All Together 8.5/10 Citadel 8/10 In Another Land 8.5/10 2000 Man 7.0/10 Sing This All Together 7.5/10 She's A Rainbow 10/10 The Lantern 6/10 Gomper 6.5/10 2000 Light Years From Home 10/10 On With The Shoq 8.5/10 Overall: 80.5/100 B- Underrated, but not the greatest.
  • First off, Marianne Faithful was SOOOO fine.

    This was such a spectacular album, up there with the very best psychedelic albums. The sound here is excellent - much better than most of our hi-fi's back then! (Don't even ASK about 8-tracks!)

  • this is a great album..considering they were inside jail..sucide attempts etc

  • @PressPlay2Go Listen to it with "All You Need is Love," the Rolling Stones ripped off the Beatles for that one. The Stones are much more superior, ofcourse.

  • Very underrated album. Citadel and the Lantern are among the very best titles, and never released live. I guess those gentlemen, i.e. the Rolling Stones, should reconsider that issue.

  • this album is SO UNBELIEVABLY AWESOME ! ! !
