Rough Trade Essential

The Rolling Stones are an English rock band formed in London in May 1962. They have become one of the longest-lived and most commercially successful groups in rock history. With their induction into the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame in 1989, they solidified their status as iconic performers.Throughout their extensive career, The Rolling Stones have had various talented members contributing to their sound. From Mick Jagger's captivating lead vocals and harmonica skills to Keith Richards' mastery of lead and rhythm guitars, this band has consistently delivered memorable performances.With hits spanning decades, The Rolling Stones continue to captivate audiences with their energetic live shows and timeless music. Their enduring legacy makes them a must-listen for any rock enthusiast or music lover.

One of the few truly great double albums. Still inspired by their Sticky Fingers recording sessions in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, Exile on Main Street found The Rolling Stones sounding more like a southern fried juke-joint band than ever before.

That Exile on Main Street was recorded in a basement is no surprise, either - much of it sounds as if it was recorded live at a gospel revival, with a final mix that gives nohierarchy to specific instruments. The result is a swampy, most exhilarating chunk of rock and roll euphoria. Exile on Main Street sharpens the country, blues, and gospel tendencies The Stones began exploring in the late '60s on albums like Beggar's Banquet. Here, armed with an assortment of backing musicians and vocalists, the band virtually inhabits the spirit of each style, distilling the whole to a ragged, soulful perfection. From the escalating, horn-driven vamps of Rocks Off through the back porch singalong Sweet Virginia to the mean blues stomp of Ventilator Blues and the church-like strains of Shine a Light, Exile on Main Street's double-album length plays like a weary, boozed-up sermon on the very meaning of rock music. This is the closest the band ever came to religion, and it still has the power to convert.
