Album[edit]

Why has this album received such bad reviews? Tracks such as 'Memory Motel' and 'Fool to Cry' are excellent. The album has a mellow, laid-back blues feel to it. I'm not the biggest Stones fan out there by any means, but this album is certainly deserving of some attention.

Fair use rationale for Image:BlackBlue.jpg[edit]

Image:BlackBlue.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 14:44, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Cover Image[edit]

Wood appears in the far left of the album cover photo of the band next to Charlie Watts, which forms the back cover of a vinyl album or the inside cover of a CD version of the album. I wonder if there is a free image we could get of that, or even better something like the image that appears as the backround and also later in the page linked. There should probably be more about the Sunset Boulevard image which I recall was a very big deal in the U.S. at the time. I tried for about twenty minutes to find something better than the Rock Explosion link, if any expert has better sources I think it is a needed additon to the article.

Billboard Hot 200 Number 1 Album[edit]

The links at the bottom of the page create a do loop. What was the next number 1 album? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.31.11.250 (talk) 03:13, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

billboard contraversy[edit]

would someone please add the image of the billboard and say it was a contaversy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.12.165.254 (talk) 23:22, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

that image is no doubt copyrighted. and the controversy is already mentioned in the article, if you read the "history" section. Sssoul (talk) 06:21, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

@Sssoul - yes, you can see it anywhere on the web with a simple search, no need to post it here, agreed. What I have a problem with is the phrasing "...depicted the model Anita Russell, bound by Jagger..." (bold by me for effect). I've viewed the image of the billboard, and I don't see Jagger anywhere except for the album cover that she appears to be sitting on. So, how is she "bound by Jagger"? Thanks! FiggazWithAttitude (talk) 18:51, 8 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I assume the meaning here is that it was Jagger who tied her up, even if he's not depicted in the photo. Unfortunately the reference for that sentence is a dead link so we can't confirm. Robofish (talk) 15:38, 19 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Jeff beck[edit]

Based on audience tapes of the 1975 Rotterdam rehearsals Jeff beck never jammed on Slave. He played on the following songs: Come On Sugar, Sexy Night, Freeway Jam, Blues Jam.

I'm ok with removing the reference to "Slave", it isn't the most important part of the story anyway. Please remember to sign your posts, and use edit summaries next time. I had no idea why you were repeatedly removing information that was sourced.-- Pawnkingthree (talk) 15:16, 30 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The story of the Stones wiping any of Jeff Beck's parts is untrue. They never used any of the material they recorded with Beck for any official release. There are various professional recordings available on bootlegs with Beck and these parts were not wiped. The reference shown is false information Heteren (talk) 16:22, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
