The Rolling Stones / The Studio Albums Vinyl Collection 1971-2016

20 vinyl LPs • half-speed remastered • includes hi-res downloads

Universal Music will issue The Studio Albums Vinyl Collection 1971-2006, a lavish Rolling Stones vinyl box set in June.
This 20LP collection covers 15 studio albums, starting with 1971’s Sticky Fingers and ending with 2016’s Blue & Lonesome.  Every album has been remastered and cut at half-speed at Abbey Road Studios, from “vinyl specific” original tape transfers. The records are pressed on 180g vinyl and each album comes with a download card for “HD digital redemption” of the catalogue. 15 studio albums on 180g heavyweight vinyl. Remastered and cut at half speed in Abbey Road studios. From Sticky Fingers – which includes fan favourites Brown Sugar, Wild Horses and Dead Flowers – to the renowned Exile On Main Street, which is featured on various lists as one of the greatest albums of all time! This release contains every album in between, right up to the very latest Grammy-Award winning Blue & Lonesome.

Housed in a highly bespoke box-set that gives the illusion of a 3D colour changing tongue, the product is individually numbered, with original detailed packaging replications, from the Andy Warhol design with working zip on Sticky Fingers, to the colourful and charismatic Some Girls cut out cover! 

This collector’s item features every studio album release since 1971, all of which are cut at half speed, ensuring these are among the highest quality vinyl pressings that these classic albums will have ever received, creating an incredible sound quality for the listener.  

Described as a ‘limited edition box set’, The Studio Albums Vinyl Collection comes with a numbered certificate of authentication and is presented in a “highly bespoke, lenticular mounted box”. The original packaging has been replicated, so Some Girls includes the 20 cut-outs on the cover, while the sleeve of Sticky Fingers is presented as Andy Warhol’s original design, complete with a working zip with a hidden image underneath and Exile On Main Street comes with a set of 12 original postcard inserts.

The Studio Albums Vinyl Collection 1971-2006 is released on 15th June 2018.

The tracks on “Some Trax 1 and 2″ were all recorded in Paris at a time when the group’s future was in question, due to Keith Richards’ upcoming Canadian drug possession trial, which could have possibly yielded a life sentence, so the group recorded nearly 60 songs (in various stages of completion). These songs would fill the “Some Girls” and “Emotional Rescue” albums, and some of the songs on “Tattoo You”, and there are still more unreleased songs

As far as the studio work that produced this classic LP… There was a prolific amount of output at Pathe Marconi recording studios in France from the later part of 1977 through the winter of 1982. There were also several departures to Compass Point Studios in Nassau, Bahamas in the time in between.

There are so many great “Some Girls” era songs still in the “can”, so why put this one out again? How about the coolest Wood-Richards guitar-weave ever recorded and never released: Fiji Jim? That was a good one. Or The Way She Held Me Tight? Or I Need You? Really, there is still so much, and to put this out again? I don’t get it. It’s filler on a bonus disc. Well, none the less, still a great “Some Girls” song

Some_Girls

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vrwUqxZ_i80#t=129

SOME GIRLS was the first full album with Guitarist Ronnie Wood his slide guitar style particulary was a feature of the sound plus meshed with the similar riffing of Keith Richards.Mick Jagger added a third guitar sound for the track “Respectable” This was the Rolling Stones 14th album released around the peak of Punk and Disco era with inspiration for Jagger from the disco and club scenes in New York, It helped that most of the punks idolised the Stones. The album recorded in Paris and with Keith still under the possibilty of going to Jail.

One of the Hits  “Miss You” certainly had that disco appeal Prince reported that he wished he had written that song,  included on the album were some of the Stones best songs, with some still played on tour today. There is the country style of “Beast Of Burden” then the cover of the Temptations “Just my Imagination” The  Sexist lyrics of title track caused some fury  “Some Girls”with its risque lyrics that mocked the stereotypes of women with virtuoso Harmonica from Sugar Blue, there is the Glam/Punk of “Shattered”  Ian McClagan Woods bandmate from the Faces added organ and piano. The cover had a lingerie, cartoon type sleeve with various female celebrities some of who threatened legal action pictured on the die cut sleeve which came in various colours.
