Originally released in 1983, now remastered & cut at revelatory Half-Speed at Abbey Road Studios from vinyl specific original tape transfers designed to get the very best possible sound from the format.
Pressed on heavyweight 180g black vinyl and including a double-sided insert, this album features the singles â??Undercover Of The Nightâ??, â??She Was Hotâ?? and â??Too Much Bloodâ??. - 2009 REMASTERED
With Afro-Cuban percussion and dub textures scattered throughout, UNDERCOVER sounds like a soundtrack to a bloody Caribbean coup d'etat. The machine-gun rattle of Linn drums on "Feel on Baby," the viciously dubbed-out guitars of the title track, and Jagger's reliance on sado- masochism as a central lyrical theme ("Tie You Up" and "Pretty Beat Up" being the most obvious examples) add to the notion that the Stones were reflecting a world gone wrong back upon it's audience. But past it's bleakness, UNDERCOVER is among the last exciting bits of music the Stones ventured to make.

Perhaps someone considers this album "optional." For me, this is one of the best. Very cheerful. It goes well in the morning, in cloudy weather. All people shout - ah what a great fellow! Guitarists overjumped themselves!
