Tattoo You doesn’t address the subject of maturity, or deny its onset, in a burst of satyriasis. Instead, maturity serves as the backdrop for rockers with real momentum and love songs with real objects, beginning with Start Me Up, the catchiest Stones single in ages. That same thread of reasoned recognition runs through the entire album, as though a decade of posturing had somehow been digested into fuel for moving ahead. Tattoo You is a compact, unified statement - despite the fact that some of its tracks (or segments of them) reportedly date back several years. Are the Rolling Stones fooling me with all this? I don’t think so. Am I fooling myself? I hope not. I do know that the vocal blend in No Use in Crying and the way that Mick Jagger drops from falsetto to full voice in Worried About You have the instant impact of a lover’s touch - a strength that means far more than a mere return to form.

Instead, Tattoo You captures the Stones at their best as a professional stadium-rock band. Start Me Up" became the record's definitive Stonesy rocker, but the frenzied doo wop of "Hang Fire," the reggae jam of "Slave," the sleazy Chuck Berry rockers "Little T&A" and "Neighbours," and the hard blues of "Black Limousine" are all terrific
