 | The Rolling StonesA Retrospective: 1962-2023 |
Overview:Considered by many to be the greatest rock and roll band of all time, the Rolling Stones have put together a career lasting more than 50 years. As a result, they’ve released multiple compilations and sorting them out can be quite a chore. This page offers a highlight of the most significant compilations with spotlights on their studio albums as well. The Players from 1962 to 2023:

Compilations
* Big Hits (High Tide & Green Grass) and Through the Past, Darkly (Big Hits, Vol. 2) had different track listings in the U.S. and UK, hence the two sets of codes for each album. When the Stones formed their own label, ABKCO took control of the Stones’ 1963-70 catalog and released two double compilations – Hot Rocks 1964-1971 and More Hot Rocks (Big Hits & Fazed Cookies) – which essentially made the Big Hits collections obsolete. Only Little Red Rooster and You Better Move On didn’t make it to the Hot Rocks collections. In 1989, the three-disc The Singles Collection – The London Years, was released to cover all the official singles of the 1963-1971 era. Consequently, it put most of the material from the Hot Rocks sets into one box set. * Rewind was released with different track listings in the UK and U.S, hence the two different codes. Under each album snapshot, songs featured on the anthologies are noted. If the song charted, the date of the song’s release or first chart appearance and its chart peaks are noted in parentheses.

Both collections featured Mother's Little Helper, Let’s Spend the Night Together, Ruby Tuesday, She’s a Rainbow, 2000 Light Years from Home, and Street Fighting Man. In addition, the two sets also featured Dandelion, Jumpin’ Jack Flash, and Honky Tonk Women appearing on album for the first time.The U.S. version also included Paint It Black and Have You Seen Your Mother, Baby, Standing in the Shadow?, which had both originally appeared on the UK version of Big Hits. The UK version added You Better Move On from the Stones’ 1964 self-titled EP, Sittin’ on a Fence which was recorded in 1965 during the Aftermath sessions and appeared on the Flowers archival collection, and We Love You, the B-side of “Dandelion.” The album was released shortly after Stones’ founder Brian Jones left the group and died soon afterward. “In the inside flap of the album, there is a tribute to Jones, which reads: ‘When this you see, remember me, and bear me in your mind. Let all the world say what they may, speak of me as you find.’” WK-B2 “The name of the album is a play on a line from the KJV translation of I Corinthians 13: "For now we see through a glass, darkly, but then face to face: . . .’, but it is more likely the Stones intended an homage to Ingmar Bergman and his 1961 film Through a Glass Darkly.” WK-B2 Tracks Not on Previously Noted Albums:

WK-HR The Rolling Stones went on to form their own label, Rolling Stones Records while Klein compiled this retrospective for his company, ABKCO Records. It was the “Rolling Stones’ biggest-selling release of their career and an enduring and popular retrospective”WK-HR covering “seven years’ worth of mostly very high-charting – and all influential and important – songs.” AMGBecause the Stones owed Decca Records one more single, the songs Brown Sugar and Wild Horses were co-woned by the band and Klein. The Stones’ released the songs on their 1971 Sticky Fingers album while Klein added them to the Hot Rocks compilation. This overview of the band’s career thus far lets one hear how the Stones “change from loud R&B-inspired rockers covering others’ songs (Time Is on My Side) into originators in their own right ((I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction); then into tastemakers and style-setters with a particularly decadent air (Get Off of My Cloud, 19th Nervous Breakdown); and finally into self-actualized rebel-poets (Jumpin’ Jack Flash, Midnight Rambler) and Shaman-like symbols of chaos.” AMG |

That project was scrapped (although it was revisited in 1975 with Metamorphosis) in favor of this more commercial-friendly package, a natural successor to 1971’s Hot Rocks. This collection featured “the hits that could not be shoehorned onto its predecessor, as well as first-time release of many previously UK-only releases.” WK-MHIt showed what an embarrassment of richies the Stones had in the hits department that this collection still boasts seven top 40 U.S. hits, including the top 10 hits The Last Time and Have You Seen Your Mother, Baby, Standing in the Shadow?

Notes: In 2002, a CD reissue of More Hot Rocks added “Everybody Needs Somebody to Love,” a second version of “Poison Ivy,” and “I’ve Been Loving You Too Long.” |

Allen Klein did not have release rights to this material when this compilation was released. Also ‘Natural Magic,’ a Ry Cooder instrumental, released as the B-side to Memo from Turner, which features no members of the Rolling Stones performing.” WK-SC “The set was released at a timely juncture, just a couple of weeks before The Rolling Stones’ comeback album Steel Wheels was due for release after a significant break, and months following their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame...In 2007, Steven Van Zandt placed Singles Collection: The London Years #1 on his list of the most essential albums of all time.” WK-SC Tracks Not on Previously Noted Albums:

It draws entirely from their first four albums on that label.” WK-MS “The material…surveys the highlights from the band's post-Decca/London era…from 1971’s Sticky Fingers to It’s Only Rock ‘n’ Roll from 1974, with no new material.” WK-MS The Stones “were mid-way through recording Black and Blue upon this album's June 1975 release” WK-MS, putting this out “to capitalize on the band’s summer Tour of the Americas, featuring Ronnie Wood for the first time in Mick Taylor’s place. Wood, fitting in so well, was asked to remain in the band on a permanent basis following the tour’s conclusion.” WK-MS “Subsequent Rolling Stones compilation albums have also anthologized tracks included on this album.” WK-MS |
