THE ROLLING STONES  -  MADE IN THE SHADE  -  ROLLING STONES COC 39107 (1975)
TRACKS LISTING: Brown Sugar Tumbling Dice Happy Dance Little Sister Wild Horses Angie Bitch It's Only Rock 'N Roll Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker) Rip This Joint
Released in the summer of 1975, in the down period between Mick Taylor's departure and as the Stones were auditioning guitarists during the recording of 1976's "Black and Blue" (coincidentally, the '60s rarities comp "Metamorphosis" also came out in the summer of 1975), "Made In The Shade" offers a perfunctory summary of the Stones' records from the first half of the '70s. With the exception of their 1974 cover of the Temptations' "Ain't Too Proud to Beg" (presumably left off the LP so Mick and Keith would have all the publishing here), all the U.S. hits from 1971 through 1974 are here - "Brown Sugar", "Wild Horses", "Happy", "Tumbling Dice", "Angie", "Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker)", "It's Only Rock 'n Roll" - and they're balanced out with some sharp, hard-driving album tracks like "Dance Little Sister", "Rip This Joint", and "Bitch", the latter of which was played enough on the radio and in concerts to seem like one of their genuine hits. So, it's not a bad collection, but it's not a necessary one, either, since the albums it anthologizes are pretty great on their own terms - 1971's "Sticky Fingers" and 1972's "Exile on Main St." are two of the greatest albums of the 20th century - and such latter-day anthologies as "Jump Back" and "Forty Licks" cover this half of the '70s, plus the second half of the '70s, in a more thorough fashion. Nevertheless, if you happen to have it lying around your house, or can pick it up for a few bucks, "Made in the Shade" is pretty much guaranteed to give you a good time if you play it.
