By the late seventies, The Rolling Stones were unquestionably the world’s greatest rock’n’roll band, a tag they thoroughly deserved and have yet to lose. They had moved effortlessly into open-air stadiums but also began a tradition of performing more intimate shows in theatres and clubs alongside their groundbreaking concerts in arenas. To the delight of their millions of fans, they have continued with this policy to the present. The world really was The Rolling Stones’ oyster in the late seventies, as their Canadian escapades made headlines around the world. They partied at Studio 54, came up with dancefloor favourites "Miss You" and "Emotional Rescue", and recorded in Paris, Nassau and New York. The eighties saw the band stretch the envelope further still, working with jazz great Sonny Rollins, film directors Julien Temple and Michael Lindsay-Hogg, and producers Chris Kimsey and Steve Lillywhite. Amazingly, the Rolling Stones topped these achievements with ever-more ambitious tours in the nineties and noughties, and recorded three more classic studio albums with acclaimed producer Don Was, in Dublin, Los Angeles, France and the Caribbean. Produced by the Glimmer Twins and Chris Kimsey, and recorded in Paris and New York, Undercover made the Top 5 on both sides of the Atlantic in 1983. Its lead-off single, the stunning "Undercover Of The Night", incorporated elements of reggae, dub and dance and proved that the group kept their finger on the pulse of popular music. Jagger has never been in better form than when delivering its politically-charged lyrics. He also raps about the Texas Chainsaw Massacre on the nasty "Too Much Blood". The Top 50 single "She Was Hot" has rightly been revived by the band in recent years, as has the Richards-sung rocker "I Wanna Hold You". Corriston’s cover originally came with strategically-placed stickers to cover the risque image. Review: Very good even though some of the production is rushed - If they had took more time over the production/sound quality it would great but then it is The Rolling Stones which i don't believe sound quality is that important to them Review: All reviewed up - Everything is good,very well done

Get stoned!
The best Stones album of the 80‘s, Undercover is a fine effort with a good feel to it. ‘Undercover of the night', ‘Too much blood’, ‘It must be hell' and Keith Richard song ‘Wanna hold you' being the pick. Mick Jagger's vocals are excellent as usual, particularly on the aforementioned ‘TMB', this song being both hilarious and entertaining, given the subject matter. You cannot really go wrong with this greatest of rock n roll bands anyway.

Great Album
1980's Stones is sometimes a bit dodgy but this is really great - they make the Dub, Reggae & Afrobeat influences really work - the title track still sounds amazing and She Was Hot is a great song - though it's the live version on Shine A Light that's the definitive one - and hearing Mick ramble on about the kind of films he likes in Too Much Blood is pretty funny.

Sex and violence Stones!!
This is one of the stones better albums from their late 70s, early 80s period. Actually, I like them all from this time up to Dirty work. There is a lot of violence on this disc, non more so than on Too much blood, Jagger's tongue in cheek nod towards the video nasties of the time, being there wasn't any legislation for these films at the time. The title track has a look at the South American militia and its treatment of its own people, and its just a killer piece of hard rock funk. A great single at the time and its stands strong today, up with their best material. All in all, a great stones album. Add it to your collection if it's not there already!

Perfect
Bought as a gift for my dad, I have the vinyl version & he was surprisedly amazed that he hadn’t heard of a couple of the songs on this, even though he’s a stones fan & since he no longer has a record player I thought I treat him to the cd as I knew he’d love it & I was right, Totally Recommend

At Times there are some discs that require moving away from them for a short time and then returning to listen again with fresh ears, such was the case with UNDERCOVER. When I did return to Undercover for the second time the title track became very fresh for me and I very much enjoyed it. Ronnie Woods Tune PRETTY BEAT UP, and TOO MUCH BLOOD also stood out immediately and the rest of the tracks were far more easy to listen too. I have to say that this was NOT the best of all STONES discs for me however it does have its moments and it is worth owning at the right price. The Title Track is indeed a great song and there are some plums along side it to make it worth owning. Spigomars
