The bands first hits collection, from 1966, this 14-track hits collection is still one of pop musics most compelling and potent singles compilations ever released. Reflecting the bands remarkable run of singles through the early to mid-sixties, it includes six UK number ones!
Stunning artwork and photography, the original LP had one of rocks early classic gatefold album designs, with the iconic fisheye image of the group on the sleeve front.
Highlights include the defiant, in-your-face fuzztone riff and frustrated lyrics of (I Cant Get No) Satisfaction, the frenetic pounding anthem Get Off of My Cloud the louder-than-life rhythm guitars on Its All Over Now and The Last Time and the wailing R&B of Time Is on My Side, as well as one of the greatest Stones singles, Paint It, Black the killer riff being played on a sitar by Brian Jones a perfect match for the dark, mysterious Eastern-Indian melody.
