"Grrr!" Is an object that has to do up to a certain point with the music. "Grrr!" Is the object that the Rolling Stones have used to celebrate their fifty years of activity. Fifty years, only to think of shaking the blood. The biggest rock band of all time has condensed into fifty songs, three discs, a booklet with photos and memorabilia of five postcards depicting posters of five of their tour (at least in the Deluxe Edition that I have at hand, there is also a Super Deluxe Edition more impressive where the songs are eighty plus a vinyl plus a book plus a poster and five postcards), a half-century of career.
To close the third CD is "Doom and gloom" and "One more shot", two new pieces, the only two new songs in this collection. Indeed, nothing memorable (though not so little). Even if, what you hear is Mick Jagger singing and the guitar sound is unmistakably Keith Richards usual backed by Ron Wood. And also, and above all, to support all there is behind the metronome Charlie Watts.
Ok, almost seventy years, however, there are no terms of comparison, no other band has been pushed so far. What will happen in fifteen U2 or Pearl Jam in thirty years. Who knows ...
"Grrr!" Is an object, not music, although the music contained here is irreplaceable part of the lives of a number of people transgenerazionalmente hard to imagine. If a hypothetical click could delete these songs and make sure that they had never existed svuoteremmo in an instant part of the soul of the world. Big words, but only for those who underestimate the power of music and what have been the Rolling Stones, also socially, in all these years.
"Grrr!" Is an object, something old-fashioned these days for anyone who enjoys music. Now the music has no more space, no longer has weight, is no longer visible. "Grrr!" Is an object, it is visible and it does not matter what kind of music is contained and is not important to listen once more because the music we already inside and we have heard a million times. It 'a beautiful object which is celebrating a birthday. The celebrated without much pomp, with the nonchalance of his English band. Why are you so agitated - they seem to want to say - what will never happen ... the penny, that yes it will be an important milestone. And who has sold his soul to the devil does not mean that I do not reach.
Finally, "Grrr!" Is an object stored in the library in the future when you cross paths with an eye will make us remember that Christmas of 2012. Watching the gorilla with the iconic tongue will think of us with a little 'more understanding if Mick and Keith Charlie and Ron (because the devil, you know, is lazy) should not be longer among us know that something good has been done and there is no reason to be sad. God bless you.
PS The judgment has 5 stars, could also be 50 ... it really is not very important.
