Jon and Chris are joined by Jim Moscater and Listen Closely newcomer, Mike Slatky, for the finale of season two. The four take an insightful and entertaining look at Tattoo You from The Rolling Stones. Released nearly forty years ago and consisting almost entirely of previously unreleased demos and outtakes, Tattoo You was the surprise hit album of 1981, and the album's second side is considered by many fans and critics to contain some of the Stones' most ambitious and innovative work. Tattoo You and the outlandish music videos from the album also helped introduce a new generation of fans to The Rolling Stones, with the album being released less than a month after the premiere of a new 24 hour music television network known as MTV.
