...technical level, the Stones are better than ever. Jagger has acquired wonderful command of his voice; he sings with nuance and a remarkable adaptability to different lyrics and styles. He is our Sinatra. Watts now reigns as undisputed King of the Skins; his jazz- and reggae-influenced drumming is the band's gasohol. Watts single handely saves at least two songs on the album from mediocrity and lifts one to brilliance. The bass playing is at times superb, and probably Ron Wood's; elsewhere it is merely workmanlike, and probably Bill Wyman's. Over the years the Stones have acquired...

...Sinatra on the mound, and here's the pitch. A single-for Dean Martin, who could swear that "this was one of those moving fields. I ran to first base and it was gone." Having wrapped up a benefit concert in Atlantic City, N.J., the two crooners chose teams for a 3 a.m. game of Dom Pérignon-fueled softball.
