Keno, I'm not surprised.. Exile is not your favorite Stones record. And Ventilator Blues is the distilled essence of Exile. So it stands to reason that VB would not rank high on your list.
Like Loving Cup, VB has never gotten its' due. Admittedly VB is more esoteric, but I think the real reason is that they're buried amongst so much other great stuff that's better-known - Rocks Off, RTJ, Dice, Sweet Virginia, Happy..
