It was also their most overt drug album....The Rolling Stones' best 'tunes' album.", 9 - Excellent Plus - "...captures the Stones bluesy swagger in a...dark-land where few dare to tread...even the jaunty country take `Dead Flowers' has a derisive sneer beneath the hokum delivery...", 5 stars out of 5 -- "Recorded over more than a year and finally issued in April 1971, Sticky Fingers was an eclectic affirmation of maturing depth...", 5 stars out of 5 -- "It's the Stones at their assured, showboating peak....A magic formula of heavy soul, junkie blues and macho rock...", "...Driving, Intense, Wide-Open Rock...", Ranked #63 in Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums Of All Time" - "...The album has tough, straight-up rock...", Included in Vibe's 100 Essential Albums of the 20th Century, 5 stars out of 5 -- "Jagger and Richards delve even further back to the primitive blues that first inspired them and step up their investigations into another great American form, country."
