It's Day 8 of 20 Albums in 20 Days! Today's album du jour  is Exile on Main St. by the Rolling Stones. It's our first double album featured this month and was released on May 12 1972. It's a hootenanny of rock, blues, gospel, soul, and country. The title comes from the fact that the Stones spent the money they owed for taxes and  left the UK before the government could come after them. In tax exile, they recorded the album in France using a mobile recording truck hooked up to Keith Richard's basement studio.

Join us tonight at 5:20 for a WBLM Mini-Concert with the Rolling Stones! You'll be HAPPY!
