Format:Audio CD
This is their bluesiest powerpacks. With Little Red Rooster and Mona. You won't find any sitars or experimenting here , what you will find is is an unparalleled rendering of then obscure blues tracks energized by Brian and the boys. Every song is as good as the next , and they proved themselves on this disc to be the kings of interpretive blues. As good as Let it Bleed or Aftermath, more straightforward and consistant and a great driving cd too.
Format:Audio CD
Perhaps the best "true" Rolling Stones. "You Can't Catch Me" and "Down The Road Apiece" are on fire and cut the Master's (Chuck Berry) original versions. "Down Home Girl", "What A Shame", and "Mona (I Need You Baby)" are THE essence of the original Rolling Stones, and show Brian Jones' remarkable talent and leadership; "Little Red Rooster" is arguably the best Stones' blues ever recorded. "Heart Of Stone" and "Pain In My Heart" are the soul(ful) songs of the set. The best surprise on the enhanced CD is the inclusion of the original (and GREAT!) version of Wilson Pickett's "Everybody Needs Somebody To Love". This superb track was on the original vinyl, but someone (unknowing or uncaring)put a second rate version on the cassette and 1st CD. To whomever made this change: THANK YOU! This opening song is worth the price of the whole CD. Play it LOUD!
Format:Audio CD
More and more I have been going back to these early cds. If they could only do one this again, it would be grand!

A patchy collection of soul & blues covers
Like the first two albums, NOW! is largely made up of blues and soul covers which seldom surpass the original versions. Read more

The secret to their success
Along with the first two US albums this showcases exactly why the Stones were such a hit by being the polar opposite of the Beatles. Read more

Pedal To The Metal

Impressive incipient mastery of the blues for Jones et.al.
One of my favorites. Just one listen, and you may be convinced that this is what the Stones were (and are) made of, rhythm and blues. Read more

The Real Rolling Stones!
Listen to this and youll know why they were the best band around. One of the main reasons is because of the presence of BRIAN JONES! All there albums with him on it. Read more
