My favoret songs on the LMS album are "Evening Gown",
"Twilight", "What's Made Milwaukee Famous", "Couple
More Years", "Lost Highway", "The Irish Heart Beat" &
"The Pilgrim". All fantastic tracks!

My least favoret song is "Honky Tonk Woman".
Dispite Kid Rock being one of my favorets also I don't like
song from start to finish. I wish they would done "What's
Made Milwaukee Famous" together, this would have a
perfect pick for both of them to sing not this song.

I kind of like "Honky Tonk Woman". It was the first favourite on the album for me. I was so amazed at how it was done so different. Still not losing the original concept by the Stones or Ike & Tina.

Today, i can´t pick out which song is my absolute favourite. They are all so good to my ears. To me, that´s the sign of a great album!!!!

Maybe it's because I'm a big Stones fan, but I think both of Jerry's attempts at recording Stones songs (the other being 'Satisfaction' of course) have been poor.

I´m also a Stones fan, and "Satisfaction" was certainly poor!!!! Do agree on that! I had my fears for "Honky Tonk Woman", but was very surpised at how great it was!

I'm glad atleast someone liked it. Have to agree on Satisfaction
being a poor version.

I totally agree on that! Except those three tracks I´ve already mentioned I think LMS is great I can´t get really tired of it. (Though my girlfriend have) :wink:

Has he done more then one version of "Satisfaction"? Do you folks mean the rare recording from London session?

Just the one (thankfully!). After recording this Jerry apparantly said "I'll leave that one to Mick!", & he certainly didn't want it to be released.

I am fully with Perk on this one: Except Old Glory every song on the album has its charm and depending on the mood I am in, I tend more to the uptempo ones or the ballads.

Best Wishes

I must admit I havnt listen to LMS a lot. I do like Pink Candillac and what made Milwaukee famous a lot. I always liked Rod Stewart's solo version better. Leave the Stones songs to Mick and the booys who were amazing at their recent London showws. For me the Bear Famiy sets are played the most, although I have played the Rockin My Life away compilation on cd a lot lately!!

I just found this cd on e-bay being available as a Japanese MINI LP CD

I'm a big fan of the mini LP look, anybody got this version in his possession?

Is it made like a double LP? That's what it looked like on the preview I've seen.

by **Andrew McRae** » Mon Sep 03, 2007 8:26 am

Yes, it's like a gatefold LP set. There's a photo album on the JLL-IFC Forum ("LMS Japan") which will give you better idea of what the packaging looks like.
