Without a doubt, no Rolling Stones album – and, indeed, very few rock albums from any era – split critical opinion as much as the Rolling Stones' psychedelic outing. Many dismiss the record as sub-Sgt. Pepper posturing; others confess, if only in private, to a fascination with the album's inventive arrangements, which incorporated some African rhythms, Mellotrons, and full orchestration. What's clear is that never before or after did the Stones take so many chances in the studio…In 1968, the Stones would go back to the basics, and never wander down these paths again, making this all the more of a fascinating anomaly in the group's discography. - Alt Music

The Beatles did kick their ass in sales that year. The album has gotten better and better as we get older. lol
In the Stones defense, they were really good at the blues.

Man...I didn't like these guys for a long time. "Whisky Train", an atypical PH tune by Robin Trower was about it for me. Then I heard the 'orchestra live' LP. Fantastic.
This is '71, but a continuation of the PH thought.

That is a good, big sound. I don't think I had any of their albums back in the day. Had some of the "hits" on assorted artists albums. Now thanks to pawnshops and thrift stores, I have a few PH CD's in my collection.
