  • Welcome to Friendly Arguments, where my guest and I disagree about the merits of a particular album or artist. In this episode Peter Kerr from Rock Daydream Nation and I discuss The Rolling Stones and their controversial 1967 album Their Satanic Majesties Request. The Stones go psychedelic! We go through the album track by track and see where we differ and, in spots, where we agree. Enjoy!

    Another excellent show, men! Mr. Kerr’s biting criticism of certain songs had me in stitches. So snarky, so funny. I laughed out loud a few times at his humorous comments.
    When bicyclelegs was talking about how Jagger and Richards have basically disowned the album, my first thought was KISS with Music From The Elder. When he said it a moment later, l exclaimed, “Yes, exactly,” out loud to no one in particular.
    I love the banter when you two get together. A great chemistry; reminiscent of “The Two Johns,” but VERY different. In a good way, though, NOT a bad one!
    Cheers from The Big Apple.
    Rock Out, Prog On & Pogo!

    I like that the experimental nature of this album and that its so different from anything the Stones did before or after

      @@bicyclelegsmusic considering this was the year of psychedelic classics such as Sgt pepper's, the first 2 doors albums and surrealistic pillow and traffic's first album the Stones were quite brave in making this album at the time

    Need to revisit this album as not one I know all that well but love rainbow and 2000 man, although I prefer the Kiss version agree with your comments about the 2 different distinct parts in the stones original arrangement. Also side note think the album that slipped your mind was Aftermath has a track Goin' Home closing out side 1 of the vinyl going over 11 minutes.

    I like this album quite a bit honestly. I mentioned to Peter, this is the only Stones album I have reviewed. I'm not generally a Stones fan but this one is so different.

      It took me ages to get into the Stones (as a teenager I was Team Beatles all the way), but I’ve really come to appreciate them in the last 10 years or so.

    Hello Guys: Great discussion. I am with Bicyclelegs about 75% of the way here. TSMR is a great album but a few tracks such as Sing This All Together (See What Happens) and Gomper sound directionless and, yeah, Peter, kinda boring. About half the album belongs on a playlist: Citadel; In Another Land (love the vocals, actually); 2000 Man; She's a Rainbow; The Lantern; and, of course, 2000 Light Years From Home - the album's climax and defining statement. It was released in 1967 which I consider the greatest year ever for albums. I have TSMR as tied for tenth place - along with the Stones' other '67 studio album, Between the Buttons.

    Wow, I'm just a few minutes in...amazed at Peter's hatred of the opener. I think it's great - so fun! Does every song have to make a deep statement?

    One of the best. In the top3 at least.

    The way I see it, while Satanic Majesties... has been viewed as a poor man's Sgt. Pepper, another viewpoint is its an album by a band trying to get back into the swing of things after certain members found themselves in trouble with the law over drug related matters (say all you want about Brian Jones, but Mick & Keith were closer to doing serious gaol time than Brian was in '67).
    Also, I don't know if having a rocker on there would've fit in with the rest of the album but Jumpin' Jack Flash more than compensated after Satanic Majesties... had had its day.
    Overall, one of the most experimental albums the Stones ever made but despite its share of great moments, not one I go back to often.
