1) I'm picking one favorite deep track per album (which is gonna kill me for certain albums).
2) I'm not going in order of release.
3) No set timetable for this. Give 'em time to sink in a bit.
3) If many of them are ballads, hey, what can I tell you?

Of course, discussion is encouraged, as well as naming your own favs.

Voodoo Lounge (1994): "Moon Is Up." Nice relaxed groove. I was pleasantly shocked when this track was featured in the 2015 movie A Bigger Splash with Tilda Swinton.

This is a great idea for a thread!

My first one would definitely be "Memory Motel" from BLACK AND BLUE.

Don't be surprised if that one shows up here eventually, DanO!

"Think" from Aftermath is a top 10 Stones song for me.

"Time Waits For No One" is another favorite..........the Stones most Grateful Dead-like song.

I'll be back for this one, good topic!

I instantly thought of my favorite Stones song "Dance Pt. 1" which has a funky, choppy, slightly-Disco vibe of the streets (NY streets) that gets my ass shaking every time.

Ron Wood co-wrote this one and the bass, drums and snaky guitars are sublime and Mick's falsetto kills.

I believe Mel Collins laces in some tasty sax too.

I'll take a partial stab at this. It's tough because they had so many hits, & those are many of my favorites. Some of my choices may seem to be too popular to some for the topic........

Out Of Our Heads/December's Children:
"Gotta Get Away"
"She Said "Yeah""
"Talkin' 'Bout You"

December's Children
"The Singer Not the Song"
"Route 66
"I'm Moving On"

Aftermath
(These may both be considered hits....... sorry if that's the case)
"Stupid Girl"
"Lady Jane"

Beggar's Banquet
"No Expectations"

Let it Bleed
(Another that some may not consider deep)
"Live with Me"

Sticky Fingers
"Sway"
"Can't You Hear Me Knocking"
"Bitch"
"Sister Morphine"
"Dead Flowers"

Unofficial contract breaker
"CS Blues"

Goat's Head
"Silver Train"
And if this is deep enough.... "Star Star"

Undercover
Yet another that may be too popular...
"She Was Hot"

I have almost all of the catalog, but again I tend to like the hits the best.

The vast majority of mine aren't deep cuts either, but for what it's worth:

Exile On Main Street - Happy
Sticky Fingers - Dead Flowers
Goat Head's Soup - Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker)
It's Only Rock 'N Roll - If You Can't Rock Me
Black & Blue - Memory Motel
Some Girls - Beast Of Burden
Emotional Rescue - Emotional Rescue
Tatoo You - Waiting On A Friend
Undercover - Undercover Of The Night
Dirty Work - Harlem Shuffle
Steel Wheels - Almost Hear You Sigh
Voodoo Lounge - Love Is Strong
Bridges To Babylon - Saint Of Me

I'd have to go with Memory Motel, mainly because it may be my favorite Stones song.

"I Am Waiting" from Aftermath
"Jumpin' Jack Flash"--all-time favorite song,found on any compilation worth the name.

This is a great idea for a thread.

Just offhand, I'd mention Coming Down Again from Goats Head Soup and Dead Flowers from Sticky Fingers.

Also, Before They Make Me Run from Some Girls is another obscure favourite of mine, along with Dear Doctor from Beggar's Banquet.

I listen to a lot of Rolling Stones. None of them are "deep" tracks for me.

This is a fair point. I suppose I just took it to mean album cuts that aren't routinely on the playlists of most commercial radio stations, etc. Stuff that only fans, or fans who listen to entire albums, would know about. I'm sure there's loads of great songs of theirs I've just forgotten. I don't listen to music much these days, or I don't sit and listen to it like I used to, so it should be fun to see what people can come up with that might jog my memory.

I just remembered this one from Black and Blue, incidentally...

(But not for the Stones for me. I'll have to try to remember to steal this idea for a different act in a few weeks.)

my favorite 'voodoo lounge' deep track is 'thru and thru'....used in an episode of the sopranos just perfectly.

Alan, I basically coopted and adapted Pete's Complete Albums Thread idea myself. I'm interested to see what you come up with.

I figured there'd be some debate over what counts as a "deep track" especially for a group like the Stones. For me, in the context of this thread, any track released as an A-side of a single in the US is off limits.* Radio play is a factor too, but having been glued to WNEW through much of the 70s and 80s, one was likely to hear a great many deep cuts--they even used that as a programming tactic at some point.

Of course, I'm loving reading everybody's own selections and comments.

* I may cheat on this rule myself when I get to Metamorphosis.

Tattoo You (1981) "Heaven." Hypnotic, haunting, sensual. Mick never deviates from his falsetto vocal delivery. The shimmering chimes in the mix add to its dreamlike quality. Marvelously subtle drum-work by Charlie. I was most impressed when Cameron Crowe used this on the soundtrack to Vanilla Sky.

agree on 'heaven"........well done.

A couple come to mind

High & Dry - Aftermath
Hand of fate - Black and blue
Time waits for no one- it’s only rock and roll

My next choice is not from any Stones lp, but is an early '90s soundtrack inclusion, and later, a b-side.

"Jump On Top of Me"

Black and Blue-Cherry Oh Baby
Dirty Work--Sleep Tonight (Can't get much deeper than a Keefie track on Dirty Work)
