Studio/Album Info:
1981 Releases
1981 Session Info

The Stones released Tattoo You and toured the US in support of the album. Tattoo You was a mix of new and old tunes. Some of the songs were holdovers from the early 1970s. On the whole, the album was used to tie up alot of loose ends on songs that had been kicked around for years. Many of the songs had been in previous sessions. One, "Worried About You" had even been performed live 4 years earlier, suggestion that it might have been pushed off of Some Girls because of the mood. One thing Tattoo You does have is lots of mood. Side 1 is alot like Some Girls, rock tunes, basic and fun. Side 2 is very different. It is much slower and really shows exactly the beauty of many of the songs the Stones didn't release in the late 1970s.

The Tour was huge. The band worked back into top form and the sloppy shows of the 1978 Stones and 1979 New Barbarians tours were left behind for a professionalism that has been a staple at Stones shows since. The band from 1981 made it a priority to put on a great show. Ron Wood was apparently cited on this tour for what might be deemed a lack of professionalism. In the "Neighbors" video, you can see him actually getting yelled at by Mick. Wheather this was staged or not, this was the attitude the Stones presented. They took no slouches, and that included themselves. One interesting tidbit was the return of Mick taylor as a guest for one show in Kansas City. Keith complained Taylor was turned up too loud. Well, it would have been a treat to hear anyway.
