The Rolling Stones – The Rolling Stones, Now!

The Rolling Stones Now! – The third US album, sharing half the tracks from the UK 2nd. Includes their 2nd UK number one hit, the classic blues re-write – ‘Little Red Rooster’, with superb slide guitar from Brian Jones. Also features one of the first Jagger / Richards originals – the yearning, soulful Heart of Stone. Now! is almost uniformly strong start-to-finish, the emphasis on some of their blackest material. The covers of “Down Home Girl,” Bo Diddley’s vibrating “Mona,” Otis Redding’s “Pain in My Heart,” and Barbara Lynn’s “Oh Baby” are all among the group’s best R&B interpretations.
