A 60th Anniversary Tribute To The Rolling Stones - Stoned Cold Country
So today on the MSR (Midnight Star Review), I would like to talk about the latest tribute album from Country Music. This one a 60th Anniversary tribute to the Rolling Stones and is titled "Stoned Cold Country". This album was released on Friday March 17th, 2023, and there is 14 tracks on this new CD. Let's talk about the tracks on this new project.
Some of the biggest songs from the career of the Rolling Stones like "Paint it black", "(I can't get no) Satisfaction", "Sympathy for the devil", & "Angie". The artists who had a hand in this tribute album are Ashley McBryde, Brooks & Dunn, Maren Morris, Brothers Osborne, The War and Treaty, Jimmie Allen, Elle King, Marcus King, Little Big Town, Zac Brown band, Lainey Wilson, Elvie Shane, Steve Earle, Eric Church, & Koe Wetzel. And here is the track list up next.
Track list.
(I can't get no) Satisfaction - Ashley McBryde.
Honky Tonk woman - Brooks & Dunn.
Dead flowers - Maren Morris.
It's only rock 'n' roll (But I like it) - Brothers Osborne & The War and Treaty.
Miss you - Jimmie Allen.
Tumbling dice - Elle King.
Can't you hear me knocking - Marcus King.
Wild horses - Little Big Town.
Paint it black - Zac Brown band.
You can't always get what you want - Lainey Wilson.
Sympathy for the devil - Elvie Shane.
Angie - Steve Earle.
Gimme shelter - Eric Church.
Shine a light - Koe Wetzel
And that's a wrap for the track list. And on the MSR (Midnight Star Review), I would give this album a 3.5 out of 5 stars. I am sure, it is better to listen to the Rolling Stones do their own music. But if you are a fan of Country Music or the Rolling Stones, you should listen to this album. Thanks for taking the time to read this review. See ya all next time.

I absolutely love every time other people find something out about Steve and are just like ???
I wonder if any of his student’s parents are fans of Eddie’s but have no idea their kid’s teacher is married to him (perhaps finding out at career day 👀)
I love the thought of some rock n roll dad (aka: the guy in the minivan blaring Rage Against the Machine during morning drop off (aka: aka: my dad)) meeting his kid’s teacher during open house and seeing a picture on his desk of him and guitar legend, Eddie Munson.
Steve’s in the middle of explaining the curriculum for the year when Rock N Roll Dad points to a picture of him and Eddie backstage at the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame last year when Eddie presented like, “You like that guy?”
Steve looks from Rock N Roll Dad to the picture and then back, “Yeah, you could say that.”
Then he goes back to talking about what they should expect in terms of homework and that was that until parent/teacher conferences.
The first thing Rock N Roll Dad clocks in the new picture on Steve’s desk. It replaced the Eddie Munson one with a new one of the two of them in the parking lot after a local show. Steve’s got his arm thrown around Eddie’s neck, both of them smiling wide, and Gareth is in the background giving them bunny ears.
Rock N Roll Dad points to the framed picture like, “Pretty cool to have met ‘em.”
“Yeah,” Steve nods. “It’s one of the best things that’s ever happened to me.”
Rock N Roll Dad is not gay himself but he is not one of those ultra straight Corroded Coffin fans that liked to pretend that half the band isn’t queer. He was actually watching the MTV Music Awards show that Eddie publicly came out at by declaring his love for some guy named Steve, and actually.
Rock N Roll Dad thought it made a lot of sense that Eddie Munson was gay because well. A lot of his songs were… phallic.
So, he knows.
He knows that Eddie Munson is gay and that he’s married to some guy whose name isn’t even listed on his Wikipedia page, and he knows that he lives in Chicago, but what he doesn’t know is why he never put two and two together and got Steve Harrington.
There’s a different picture of Eddie Munson on Mr. Harrington’s desk when Rock N Roll Dad goes to talk to him after his kid gets detention for being a little shithead. There is framed original concept art for CC’s first album on the wall behind Steve when Rock N Roll Dad checks in on his kid during a zoom study session.
Hell, Rock N Roll Dad follows Eddie on Tiktok.
He has seen the ass shots that Eddie has posted of his husband in his running shorts, and he did think, yeah, that’s a great ass. He didn’t know he was thinking that about his kid’s math teacher!!
It’s not even Career Day when he discovers it. It’s the day before when they can set up their booths in the gym because Rock N Roll Dad may be a heavy metal fan always, but he’s also an accountant from 8:30 to 4:30 Monday thru Friday.
He’s struggling to keep his poster board up when in walks guitar legend, Eddie Munson. He’s carrying a box, following behind a guy carrying an iguana.
Rock N Roll Dad abandons everything and walks over to the booth across the way. He can hear the two bickering with each other but before he can say anything, Steve Harrington is there and he is distressed, “Why do you have that?!”
“Her name is Leia, Steve,” Dustin says, “and she has separation anxiety.”
Steve opens his mouth like he wants to complain but doesn’t even know where to begin so he just accepts it, “Is she going to eat somebody?”
“That happened one time!”
Eddie Munson, infamous guitarist that lived on Rock N Roll Dad’s walls as a teenager, uses the opportunity to slide up next to Mr. Harrington and wrap an arm around him. He kisses his cheek, “Baby, we’re here to help.”
“You’re here to guilt me into letting you be a part of Career Day.”
“I can multitask, babe,” Eddie grinned, still so close to Steve that his smile touches his cheek. Steve just sags against him and Rock N Roll Dad thinks, oh. He thinks, oh, shit.
“You have a fan,” Steve mumbles, pulling away a little. It takes Rock N Roll Dad a second to realize that they’re talking about him and then he thinks, fuck.
“Hey – Hi. Uh.” He stops, thinks about lying and saying he needs tape or something, but settles on, “I didn’t know my kid’s teacher married you.”
“Technically, I married him.”
“Technically, I married both of you,” Dustin pointed out. “I officiated the wedding.”
“Ah,” Rock N Roll Dad says because what else is there to say. “Big fan.”
“Yeah, I can tell.”

Now that I’ve actually got my music streaming correct (been off the scene for about a decade..((tragic, i know)) too much dancing and not enough singing), I’m happy to celebrate my ever-lasting love for music 🎧
So here we go, I’m sharing 4 songs every weekend to bring the people happiness and inner warmth for the soul, starting with songs I would say I have the deepest connection with; this week it’s all about the rock and roll just to show you guys what I’m about.
Firstly I want to show you Iggy, the man famous for being a sex-crazed, drug-maniac who was always writhing around on stage, cutting himself with glass and who was in and out of rehabs* for his hardcore lifestyle.
*David Bowie famously used to bring him his heroin whilst he was meant to be getting clean.
IGGY POP-LUST FOR LIFE
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Secondly I am proud to show you the only artist of this week’s list that I have actually seen live (he still checks in on my mum on socials to see how she is ^^’). Also a heroin addict for many years but from what I know I would class him as a reasonably responsible drug user “I’d always try to be as clean as possible when I was playing music”. Another reason why I am proud to show you this song is that it features in ‘Paul’ (starring Simon Pegg, Nick Frost and Seth Rogan*). What I’m trying to say is I heard the song before the movie and regardless here it is. I give you…Peter Perret and The Only Ones
*Sigourney Weaver also stars. (sci-fi royalty..Alien <3)
(search: The Only Ones -Another Girl Another Planet)
THE ONLY ONES -ANOTHER GIRL ANOTHER PLANET
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Nearly at the final track but before that we have the Hanoi Rocks, headed by frontman Michael Monroe(pictured. blonde). A Finnish glam-rock group who basically crafted the genre and went on to inspire ‘pioneering’ groups like Mötley Crüe and Guns ‘n’ Roses. Well, fuck them! The Hanoi Rocks were the REAL DEAL! THE REAL PIONEERING MUTHAS IN 80’S ROCK! Other members of the band included Andy McCoy and Razzle* (R.I.P)
*portrayed in (2019) The Dirt, movie focusing on the Crüe’s rise to fame through drugs, women and booze
HANOI ROCKS-DON’T YOU EVER LEAVE ME
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Finally, I believe this can change and grow the feelings you might have of an old flame (sorry! 🙈🙉🙊), it ignites so much passion in myself and really puts you in a mood that makes you want to pack your things and find the one. If you haven’t heard her yet; you’re welcome.
PATTI SMITH -BECAUSE THE NIGHT
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Tune in next week, for more.
