Critic Reviews
Show All-
Rolling Stone
Like the thermographic photos of the Rolling Stones on the album cover, Emotional Rescue is a portfolio of burned-out cases and fire trails. High-contrast patterns of familiar outlines and blackened patches where the heat has burned and gone

Ultimate Classic Rock
their final classic and their final spark before they quit trying to be the greatest rock 'n' roll band in the world
-
All Music
may consist mainly of filler, but it's expertly written and performed filler
-
Blog Critics
Overall this can be considered an average, at best, Rolling Stones effort.
-
Countdown Kid
it goes down smooth, but, with a few notable exceptions, doesn’t stick with you too long after it fades out
-
Alltime Records
Thus while Emotional Rescue is a disappointing member of the Stones' discography, it still rules. But for some reason, the order of these songs is all wrong - the awesome stuff doesn't start appearing until the second side

People
This is an interesting LP but hardly a musical rescue, even if the title track is about the most inventive sound they’ve created in years

Alan's Album Archives
Much of it fails and fails miserably

John McFerrin Music Reviews
easily one of the greatest disappointments in my collection
-
Only Solitaire
Jagger embracing disco and punk once more, with terrible results. Don't milk the same cow twice...
-
The Guardian
Or Some Girls Part 2, with more inspiration drawn from disco ... and more punky thrash – incredibly, the cor-blimeyisms of Where the Boys Go suggests someone had been listening to Sham 69. As is often the way with sequels, not quite the match of its predecessor.

Adrian's Music Reviews
It's really deeply average work.

Don Ignacio
Emotional Rescue's status as one of the most major disappointments of The Rolling Stones' career is pretty much justified

Mark's Album Reviews
I genuinely enjoy a lot of the songs, regardless of the creative stagnation they represent.
