Coasting on the success of Some Girls, the Stones offered more of the same on Emotional Rescue. Comprised of leftovers from the previous album's sessions and hastily written new numbers, Emotional Rescue may consist mainly of filler, but it's expertly written and performed filler. The Stones toss off throwaways like the reggae-fueled, mail-order bride anthem 'Send It to Me' or rockers like 'Summer Romance' and 'Where the Boys Go' with an authority that makes the record a guilty pleasure, even if it's clear that only two songs -- the icy but sexy disco-rock of 'Emotional Rescue' and the revamped Chuck Berry rocker 'She's So Cold' -- come close to being classic Stones.

Emotional Rescue is a severe letdown after the reasonably strong Some Girls; with a profound dearth of melodic merit, it's the first Stones album that I'd call actively bad, lacking the brilliant songwriting and tight performances that characterize most of the band's work.
