They are worth upwards of $100,000 when you can find one ... no way. My sister had this album with a zipper on it too. I don't think it was that rare. btw - my fav Stones ablum. Every song is great.

Damn..more and more I'm leaning towards the Stones over the Beatles..not to say the B-boys didn't have a good tune or two..

That Joe Dallesandro's "bulge" is showing? Good right after Prine.

That's when the Stones were good.
Trivia: anyone know the controversy about this album cover?

Wow, it seems that the new draft of Mick Jagger "SuperHeavy" overlapped the new draft of the Rolling Stones!

Now that is just a plain ol' ignaramoose statement.  Country music has a deep, long and rich history and deserves as much respect as any other genre. The only genre of music that one can even consider blanketly disrespecting is commercial pop. |

Perhaps because they enjoyed "this genre"? They did more than a couple of "country tunes". They were hanging around with Gram Parsons around the time this (and "Wild Horses") was recorded. |

 Rolling Stones by bp fallonhttp://www.flickr.com/photos/bpfallon/Phil Spector & Gene Pitney & Andrew Loog Oldham & The Rolling Stones at the 'Not Fade Away' sessions London 1964
Photographer unknown. Note how the very famous American record producer/songwriter/millionaire/then-diety Phil Spector is the main man in the studio with this exciting hot English combo that everyone's talking about. The brilliant Stones manager and producer Andrew Oldham - in shades of course and the youngest in the room - worships Spector. American pop star Gene Pitney wrote 'He's A Rebel' which Spector produced by The Crystals, making more millions. The first-ever Jagger-Richards hit song was 'That Girl Belongs To Yesterday' recorded by Gene Pitney. Mick doesn't look wildly happy. Both Spector and Pitney play on the first Stones album and on the much-bootlegged Stones track 'Andrew's Blues' which features lewd-lyrics lead vocals by Spector and Jagger before Phil launches into a mad filthy rap about the delighted Stones manager, with fierce twanging by Brian and Keith and pumping piano by Ian Stewart. Raw, vulgar and excellent. ~bp fallon  All rights reserved |

The Rolling Stones Established in 1962 (this photo was borrowed from the Official Site Of The Rolling Stones / Rollingstones.com) . ————————————————————————————————————————
The Rolling Stones are returning to recording a new album, still in preparation. The former bassist Bill Wyman is returning to Band and agreed to record again with the band. This new disc also intends to honor the former keyboardist, Ian Andrew Robert Stewart, already disappeared, which began in the early days of the band. The Rolling Stones have not recorded since 6 years ago, so this new album is creating huge "expectations". ~calypsus_1

I read / heard somewhere that the "dead flowers" were of an injectable nature (or perhaps smoke-able)... No opinions as to the "truthiness" of such info, but amusing to consider.

I never thought the very first dude that I would add in my portraits gallery would be Keith Richards of The Rolling Stones. I was browsing through my sister's Time magazine when I saw this monumental photo of Keith in a hotel room, posing for Louis Vuitton (for the guitar case). Fuck it's the smallest reference I had to work on!
I would like to remain cool when I grow old, but not looking like this.
2H, H, B, HB, 2B and 8B pencils. To be consistent with the creases on his face I didn't use my smudge stick. Bleh. Normally i dont like this style of Drawings. But this one of Keith is perfect! |

Thank you, as always, Calypsus_1, for the visuals and supplemental info! *hugs you* And the "Y'alternative" comment had me laughing myself into hiccups. Brilliant word-play. I still haven't figured out why I love this song, or why I turn it up whenever I hear it. Maybe it's because I live in a cow-town and I actually might have country music flowing through my veins. Or, maybe it's because it's the Rolling Stones. Or, more likely, it's because I'm a simple dork and I just like what I like and can't explain why. Feh.  |
