Product Description
Amazon.ca
Un disque composite comme les Stones en firent quelques-uns pendant la première moitié des années quatre-vingt. Jagger tire le groupe du côté de l'exotisme ("Indian Girl", aux cuivres mariachi arrangés par Jack Nitzsche) et cible les pistes de danse ("Dance" ou "Emotional Rescue", avec son falsetto de légende). De leur côté, Keith Richards et Ron Wood croisent les guitares à l'infini sur des rocks nerveux, parfois anecdotiques ("Summer Romance", "Let Me Go"), parfois réussis ("She's So Cold" et le presque reggae "Send It To Me"). Le disque se clôt de belle façon sur "All About You", la traditionnelle ballade de Keith Richards qui, pour cause de séparation amoureuse, atteint de vrais sommets d'émotion. --Hubert Deshouse

I really like this album. Including the title track. Maybe I'm alone, but I really like Mick's falsetto singing he used on that song and some other albums (like WORRIED ABOUT YOU) on "tattoo you".

Emotional Rescue is easily the worst record the Rolling Stones ever made. From the interminable "Dance", to the mush-for-brains "She's So Cold" to Keith's warbling ballad "All About You", there's barely a moment of fire, or a catchy tune, or anything other than aging rockers stumbling around in the dark, trying to find something that works.
It's hard to be believe that the man who wrote songs like "Sympathy for the Devil" and "Midnight Rambler" could be satisfied with lyrics like "I'm the bleedin' volcano" and "she's so cold... like an ice cream cone." Virtually any high school garage band could have come up with tunes like these.
The only bright spot is the blues "Down in the Hole", which certainly doesn't measure up to what the Stones were capable of before or since, but set next to the mumbling material that makes up the rest of this album it sounds pretty good.
Keith's singing has always been problematic, especially on the tender ballads he has unfortunately acquired a taste for in his declining years, but he really scrapes out the bottom of the barrel here.
Fortunately the Stones would rebound out of this creative black hole, but when this turkey was released, we hard-core Stones fans were hard pressed to justify buying it, let alone actually forcing people to listen to it.
Anyone other than Stones fanatics should give this one a wide berth. The rest of us can enjoy the thermal photographs on the cover.

This is a good Stones album. I call it easy listenin' because it's a nice album to have playing while working away.
My favourite Stones albums are from the 70's. That's my era, and I've listened to them a lot. This one is "almost 70's": 1980.
I'm also discovering that the later Stone's albums are worth listening to, more than once. The lyrics aren't always deep, but it's still Stones music.
For the new 2009 reissues, I haven't noticed much different from the last reissues. The packaging is the same, and the sound is very similar, if not exact, to me.

This Album Doesn't get Enough Credit? Come On...
I consider myself a huge Stones fan and I purchased this LP when it first came out in 1980. I was dissapointed then and I still think it is a somewhat weak album from the Stones. Read more

experimental and emotional
Released between Some Girls (1978) and Tattoo You (1981), which are some of the best ROlling Stones records ever, Emotional Rescue (1980) was never given much credit. Read more

LONG LIVE THE STONES
Emotional Rescue sounds as fresh today as it did in 1980. Fun, playful and experimental, it's the record that made me a lifelong Rolling Stones fan. Read more

Why this album is so maligned among Stones fans will forever baffle me. Maybe because it was the follow-up to Some Girls and some feel it pales in comparison? Read more
