The Rolling Stones` first set of all-original material--a full two years after the Beatles had passed that milestone with A HARD DAY`S NIGHT--1966`s AFTERMATH is arguably the Stones` first truly great album, as opposed to a selection of killer singles padded out with some forgettable filler. Not that the singles aren`t killers; "Paint It Black" and "Under My Thumb" are two of the Stones` most inventive chart successes, their sitar and marimba touches showing that at least through 1966, the Stones were just as likely as the Beatles, Kinks or Who to release a single that sounded like nothing else on the radio.
Of the album tracks, "Lady Jane" and "Stupid Girl" are standouts, the former another of the boys` Elizabethan oddities and the latter a stomping, snotty garage rocker. Even better, though, are formal experiments like "I Am Waiting," a spooky acoustic tune that sounds like the boys had been listening to George Harrison`s Indian excursions. Several of the more blues-based tracks press the five-minute barrier, culminating in the nearly 12-minute blues-rock rave-up "Goin` Home," one of the few extended jams that`s actually worth the extra minutes.
