Jagger and Richards became the band's songwriters and primary creative forces, alienating Jones who developed a drug addiction that, by 1968, interfered with his ability to contribute meaningfully. After Andrew Loog Oldham became the group's manager in 1963, he encouraged them to write their own songs. During their early years, Jones was the primary leader of the band. Their first stable line-up consisted of vocalist Mick Jagger, multi-instrumentalist Brian Jones, guitarist Keith Richards, bassist Bill Wyman, and drummer Charlie Watts. In the early 1960s, the band pioneered the gritty, rhythmically driven sound that came to define hard rock. Active across seven decades, they are one of the most popular and enduring bands of the rock era. For years, the band had described confusion-with Exile, they embodied it.The Rolling Stones are an English rock band formed in London in 1962. “I hear you talking when I’m on the street,” Mick slurs on the opening line of “Rocks Off.” “Your mouth don't move, but I can hear you speak.” For the next hour, the paradoxes keep coming: light in darkness, clarity in chaos. The story of Exile is probably oversold-after all, they only spent part of the time in the basement. And the blues that had once served as the band’s shorthand for earthly hardships and desires now sounded mysterious and arcane-less the entertainment of juke joints than the vernacular of some underground society. For every “Tumbling Dice” or “Torn and Frayed“-two of the album’s more coherent moments-there was an “I Just Want to See His Face” or “Let It Loose,” tracks that functioned less as finished thoughts than open-ended suggestions, seeds for new growth. Exile, by contrast, wasn’t just born in the basement, it evoked one: a place of clutter and darkness, strange things forgotten and unfinished. But Exile was also the closest The Rolling Stones ever got to something truly avant-garde, an album whose perceived mistakes-the muddy mix the sloppy, dislocated performances-conjured a feeling something more correct would have wiped away.Įven in its looser moments, 1971’s Sticky Fingers had sounded professional-raw music gussied up for the main stage. A great party album, yes, and a party unto itself.

Listen close: Can you hear the young gods sweating it out in the basement of a French mansion overlooking the Mediterranean? Surrounded by junkies and hangers-on? Eating lobster and stuffed tomatoes in the afternoon and working all night? Never had the band managed to translate their myth-the sloppy, redemptive glory of rock ’n’ roll-so faithfully into sound.

More than songs or performances, 1972’s Exile on Main St.
