The Rolling Stones: Forty Licks

This double CD, by possibly the world’s best-known rock band, spans forty years of hits. There     1    be few CDs which do such a good job of documenting a band’s career. And there is no band     2     the Rolling Stones.

The tracks themselves never disappoint,     3     there truly is something for everyone, from their blues-influenced rock classics to the slower, more meditative material     4     came later. Nobody listening to this collection could fail     5     (move) by the raw emotion of ‘Angie’; and I would challenge anyone to listen to “Brown Sugar with” without moving at least some part of their body. For me, these are the highlights of Disc Two, but there is much more, including four tracks not     6     (release) previously. As for Disc One, there is not a single weak track---each one is a classic.

This CD deserves a place in your collection for the simple reason     7     it follows the development of modern music almost from its very beginning in the early 1960s. If you’re a fan, you’ll be able to hear your old favourites     8     (sound) as good as the first day they were on the shelf.     9     your taste in music is much more contemporary, it is worth investigating this most influential of bands. They are a major part of rock history and anyone with the slightest interest in this subject should go straight to the source. Forty Licks gives you the chance to do just that.

It is hard to imagine the music scene without the Stones. If you want to see     10     it takes to keep band in the public eye for forty years, look no further than this CD.

The song's huge     8     (popular) has made Mohe an in-demand tourism destination. Visitors flock to the city     9    (see)the ballroom, in the hope of meeting the elderly man.

Li Jinbao, who owns the ballroom, told Beijing News: "The man often visited my ballroom in 2019. However, since the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic, I have not seen him. "I was 21 when I witnessed the fire that swept through Mohe. The city was later rebuilt and its first public ballroom opened, which     10    (immediate)became popular among local residents."
