Honestly, I hated listening to that awful "album." Almost on all of the songs, I found that the background instrumentals were really boring or just not appealing to me really. Also the fact that they only had one original song on the album, really pissed me off. It would be different if the Stones had a band of four guys all with great voices... instead they have Mick Jagger, in my mind an out of tune, obnoxious, and annoying singer. The purpose of covers, are that people recognize a song that they already like with possibly a better singer, and end up liking the cover more. However in my opinion, I have no idea how anyone could find any of these covers more appealing than the original versions.
Route 66- Rolling Stones
In my opinion this was the best song on the album, which is not saying much because I personally strongly dislike this song. I just find that even with an upbeat tempo, to me it is just honestly sort of boring. If this song had better vocals, and sounded better than Bobby Troup's version, I would probably actually like it, however to me it is just plain stupid if you prefer a version of a song with vocals worse than the original.
