The Rolling Stones Discography
Hackney Diamonds, the hugely anticipated new album by The Rolling Stones, is released on October 20th. Following the release of 2016's Grammy Award winning Blue & Lonesome, which featured brilliant versions of blues tracks that helped shape their sound, Hackney Diamonds marks the band’s first studio album of original material since 2005's A Bigger Bang.
Between The Buttons marked a high point in the band’s career – arguably the richest straight pop collection The Rolling Stones ever made. The U.S. version includes the hits “Let’s Spend The Night Together” and “Ruby Tuesday,” and includes Keith’s first solo vocal on “Something Happened To Me Yesterday.” Brian Jones’ talents as a multi-instrumentalist are showcased with accordion, electric dulcimer, kazoo, marimba, organ, piano, recorder, and theremin. 180-gram LP.
The 1966 album represented a milestone for The Rolling Stones as it was the first to consist solely of Jagger/Richards original songs. The U.S. version was fleshed out with hit single classics like “Paint It Black,” an eerily insistent #1 hit graced by some of the best-ever use of sitar (played by Brian Jones). Aftermath also strongly features the baroque charm of “Lady Jane.” 180-gram LP.
The Rolling Stones performed one of the largest free concerts in history, playing in front of 1.5 million people in Rio de Janeiro on February 18, 2006. Recorded during their A Bigger Bang World Tour, this concert has been fully remastered and includes 4 previously unreleased tracks, "Tumbling Dice," "Oh No, Not You Again," "This Place Is Empty," and "Sympathy For The Devil." Limited Edition Clear 3 LP.
The Rolling Stones celebrated their golden anniversary in 2012 and 2013 by embarking on the 50 & Counting Tour, a 30-show itinerary for North America and Europe. On December 15, 2012, the band took the stage at Newark, New Jersey’s Prudential Center for the final of 4 shows in the New York area. Featuring guest spots from The Black Keys, Gary Clark Jr., Lady Gaga, John Mayer, Bruce Springsteen, and Mick Taylor, the concert proved to be one of the most memorable shows in the band’s history.
The Rolling Stones In Mono (Limited Color Edition) features the entirety of the band’s 1960s studio output, each pressed on a different color. 14 original mono albums are included in this set, including UK and US versions of Out Of Our Heads and Aftermath. Also included is the special collection Stray Cats, a 2-LP set incorporating every 1960s Rolling Stones track that isn’t on the other 14 albums. This limited-edition numbered box set includes a 48-page booklet with an essay by David Fricke.
Released in 1967, Their Satanic Majesties Request is saturated with studio effects, non-traditional instruments, ambient sounds, string arrangements, and percussive devices. “Citadel” foreshadowed the direction toward straight-forward rock the Stones would take. “2000 Light Years from Home,” and “She’s a Rainbow,” capture them in all their psychedelic glory, while “Sing This All Together,” “Gomper,” and “On with the Show,” move from traditional song structure to freeform freakout! 180-gram black 2 LP.
Hot Rocks 1964-1971 is the Rolling Stones’ first anthology and one of their all-time best sellers. The album’s 21 tracks feature most of the band’s biggest hits, including “Get Off My Cloud,” “Jumpin’ Jack Flash,” and “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction.” While the emphasis is on the hits, Hot Rocks also includes several iconic album tracks such as “Play With Fire,” “Under My Thumb,” and “Gimme Shelter.” This 2 LP set is pressed on 180-gram black vinyl.
