Show of hands, please—how many of you rate August 1973's
Goats Head Soup as your favorite Rolling Stones album? Anyone? No? Can't say I blame you. Any record following The Stones' May 1972 career-defining double-album masterpiece
Exile on Main St. would have an impossibly high bar to overcome, no matter what made the final cut. Fact is,
Goats Head Soup had a master chef's menu stacked against it from the outset. And time has very much
not been on its side, as
Goats Head Soup has long served as a relatively underappreciated entry in The Rolling Stones' somewhat uneven mid-1970s studio-album canon.
