Give Satanic Majesties A Chance


Hope all are doing well. My 92 year old mother beat the virus. So can you. But I digress.
I never liked SMR when it came out and neither did anyone else including the Stones, who described it as "rubbish".
But times change and I decided, for some reason, to pop my 2002 Inaugural Edition Hybrid Disc 2002 in the CD player.
It was a remaster and came with a Certificate of Authenticity. Authentic rubbish I guess. But anyway - there is quite a bit of aimless meandering in some of the songs, but the album was better than I remembered. "In Another Land", "She’s a Rainbow", "Citadel" are not bad songs and they’ve managed to capture some very nice piano, drums and bell sounds.
All in all, better than I remember. Maybe give it another listen if you’re so inclined, misuse of the plural possessive notwithstanding.   Be well.

The 3D cover was particularly cool back in my psychedelic ingesting days as a much younger man!
I was finally able to solve the maze puzzle on the inside of the gatefold cover. Even the Beatles didn’t have a maze puzzle.
