i've had this record for a very long time and only recently started giving it the attention it deserves. i was reading something about the stones last week and the article mentioned the revenge filled mick / keith / marianne love triangle . reading about her made me want to go back and spend some time with this album. i'm glad i did.
the bass line / key hook in the title track is wicked and sounds like it could have given birth to the strokes 'juicebox' 30 years later . the entire record has a smoky , dark feel to it punctuated by weird guitar and keyboard lines at just the right time. lyrically it's intense and her voice only adds to it.
bonus . on side two she does a great cover of that green day song 'working class heroes' .
