(13,182 posts)6. Tattoo You is essentially an entire album of left overs and outtakes
Tattoo You is an album primarily composed of outtakes from previous recording sessions, some dating back a decade, with new vocals and overdubs. Along with two new songs, the Rolling Stones put together this collection to have a new album to promote for their worldwide American Tour 1981/European Tour 1982 beginning that September. Guitarist Keith Richards commented in 1993:
"The thing with Tattoo You wasn't that we'd stopped writing new stuff, it was a question of time. We'd agreed we were going to go out on the road and we wanted to tour behind a record. There was no time to make a whole new album and make the start of the tour

(13,182 posts)8. Probably they're last "CLASSIC STONES" record
There have been some good tunes on all the later albums, but Tattoo You is on the same shelf as Goat's Head Soup or Beggar's Banquet.
It's funny, I looked for some of my favorites from the "Newer" Stones records to make my point about good songs, I noticed that Albums I thought of as "new" Stones songs were 20 years old.
From 1994's ignored classic release Voodoo Lounge, here is "I Go Wild"
