ROLLING STONES/MADE IN THE SHADE COC 79102 (-75) US


When I first saw this title I thought it was a compilation of B-sides and previously unreleased, made in the shade of their more prominent work. But you get no hidden gems here, instead a collection of eight cuts from three of the best rock LP:s ever made, plus two highlights from "It's Only Rock'n'Roll".  One can always discuss trackings on compilations like this, and I for one would have preferred for exemple "Rocks Off" or "Moonlight Mile" over "Angie", but apart from that it's close to perfect.  No weak tracks or fillers, just tons of good rock'n'roll.  Even if I have all tracks before, many of them many times, it's still worth it.  I will never get tired of hearing tracks like "Tumbeling Dice",  "Rip This Joint" or "It's Only Rock'nRoll" and getting them in a different milieu and package could never be a bad thing.  Also the audio on this press is stunning, big and clear not standing back to any of the original issues.  Don't know if there are still people out there who need an introduction to Rolling Stones, but if they exist this is highly recommended to all of them.  Issued and reissued on all possible formats all over the world through the years.  First UK with same number and package.  Premiere US had label as shown here in a stiff matt cover with "cloud" inner.  (YZÄ*)  (RÅ*)
