Actually, instead of Hot Rocks or any of the individual albums, the
best kick-off point may be a different best-of set, Big Hits (High Tide
And Green Grass). Absolutely killer set, including "Satisfaction,"
"The Last Time," "Not Fade Away," "19th Nervous Breakdown," "Get Off My
Cloud," "As Tears Go By," "Tell Me," "It's All Over Now"...the very
best intro to the Stones ever. The follow-up Through The Past Darkly
includes "Jumping Jack Flash" and "Honky Tonk Women," though I still
think the firtst set is nonpareil as a Rolling Stones pop primer. (In
college, my girlfriend swiped my Big Hits LP, along with my Buddy Holly
and Who best-of sets; I hadda marry her to get 'em all back. As a
bonus, though, she now shares her Kinks' Greatest Hits LP with me....)

Lets say I never really listened to any Rolling Stones. And lets say
of what Stones I have heard, I definately preferred the earlier poppy
stuff to the later bluesier stuff. Also keeping in mind what you may
know of my musical taste...
What would you recommend I listen to to introduce me properly to the
Rolling Stones?
