Angie / Silver Train
A 1973 vinyl single by the British rock band The Rolling Stones, featuring the emotional ballad "Angie" and the energetic blues-rock track "Silver Train," from the album *Goats Head Soup*.
Angie / Silver Train is a vinyl single by the legendary British rock band The Rolling Stones, released in 1973. Both tracks are taken from the album Goats Head Soup and represent two distinct musical facets of one of the most influential rock bands of all time.
The A-side features the well-known love ballad "Angie," written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards. The song is distinguished by delicate acoustic guitars, a melancholic piano performance by Nicky Hopkins, a string arrangement, and an emotive vocal delivery by Jagger. The lyrics explore the end of a romantic relationship, longing, disappointment, and the acceptance of a breakup. The track became one of the band's biggest hits, reaching number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.
The B-side contains "Silver Train," an energetic blues-rock track featuring prominent guitar riffs, harmonica, and the signature rhythm of The Rolling Stones. The song delivers a rawer, more dynamic sound, characteristic of the band's rock and blues roots.
The contrast between the poignant ballad and the hard-hitting rock track highlights the band's musical versatility during the 1970s. The single serves as a significant piece of classic rock history and an intriguing collector's item—especially the Yugoslav edition released by the label Suzy.
