Through The Past, Darkly (Big Hits Vol. 2)
This is one of the great party records. All the cuts are favorites, all are terrific — loud, tough, flashy rock and roll. Even if you already have every song on Flowers, Aftermath, Between the Buttons, and Beggars’ Banquet, all together they’ve probably never sounded as good as they do on this LP. Whether or not the songs were chosen with great care or virtually at random, they form an album of tremendous impact, just like any record of Little Richard’s greatest hits. If you’re a true Stones fan, you won’t be able to take your eyes off the cover.
