Beggar's Banquet
01/01/1968 3:00 AM, Yahoo! Music Tristram Lozaw
A raw, woody model of down-home sophistication, Beggars Banquet matches country-blues ("Prodigal Son") with outlaw politics (Sympathy For The Devil") and a rough-hewn acoustic sound (the main tracks for "Street Fighting Man" were originally recorded on a portable cassette deck!). Informed by Keith's fascination with
Ry Cooder's slide guitar, Beggars is easily one of rock's top 10 albums.
