Although "Exile in Guyville" was grudgingly celebrated as one of 1990's top records by "Spin" and the "New York Times", it was also some people's idea of an abomination: a mockery of the Rolling Stones' revered record and a rare glimpse into the psyche of a shrewd, independent, strong young woman. This title presents a re-assessment of this album. Series: 33 1/3. Num Pages: 136 pages. BIC Classification: AVA; AVGP; AVH. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 167 x 126 x 9.
