“The Strolling Bones – combined aged of 245!” Haw haw, aren’t those tabloids funny? But why bother taking the mick out of Jagger and co for something as irrelevant as their age when there are much more amusing things about them? How laughably poor their music has become, for example. ‘Rain Fall Down’ has a few bars worth of blues groove and a flatline melody repeated ad infinitum, with a chorus as memorable as Mick Jagger’s acting career. If it were any longer than four minutes, Keith Richards wouldn’t be the only one reaching for illicit substances.
