Album Notes & Community Reviews
Mending the highly publicized feud between Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, 'Steel Wheels' served as a massive, stadium-sized comeback for the Rolling Stones. The album delivers incredibly energetic, highly polished rock and roll with strong pop-rock sensibilities and rhythmic blues swagger.
