Number of Stone Country: Country Artists Perform The Songs Of The Rolling Stones (1997) Reviews: 2

	Virtuosic tributes, with interesting variations. Reviewer: Dave Allen, Chef - Restaurateur       March 27, 2001 Based on "No Expectations" alone, I've decided to go out and buy this disc. Why should anyone question the 'country' take on Stones' music? These brave individuals have carried off the rare event - tribute without fawning or cloning, but with sustained interest. I miss "Far Away Eyes", but I guess that would have been too obvious an inclusion. A feast of virtuosic covers, with licensed departures from Memorex.
	Good, but get the Stones greatest hits instead Reviewer: John Fitzgerald, Human resources staff database assistant       March 08, 2001 The lead off track, Travis tritt's version of "Honky tonk woman" is the song here on which you'll hear Bekka and you hear her pretty good. It's a faithful cover with good clarity on the chorus high notes but like many songs here, although well done, there's not many surprises present. However, there is a radically different version of "Wild horses" by Blackhawk and there are likable performances by many artists enclosed in this package but one still feels that they would be better off with the Stones greatest hits compilations if they had the yearning for these songs.
