"Voodoo Lounge confirmed that the Stones could age gracefully, but it never sounded modern; it sounded classicist. With its successor, Bridges to Babylon, Mick Jagger was determined to bring the Rolling Stones into the '90s, albeit tentatively, and hired hip collaborators like the Dust Brothers (Beck, Beastie Boys) and Danny Saber (Black Grape) to give the veteran group an edge on their explorations of drum loops and samples ... But the real key to the success of Bridges to Babylon is the solid, craftsmanlike songwriting. While there aren't any stunners on the album, nothing is bad, with rockers like "Flip the Switch" and "Low Down" sounding as convincing as ballads like "Already Over Me." And, as always, Keith contributes three winners - including the reggae workout "You Don't Have to Mean It" and the slow-burning "How Can I Stop" - that cap off another fine latter-day Stones record".

"Steel Wheels" og "Voodoo Lounge" samt "Bridges To Babylon" er ikke meget bedre ... Der er alt for meget metervare over det musikalske udbytte på de tre plader, og man glemmer stort set, at det britiske rockband engang turde - og kunne - eksperimentere".
