TRACKS

What is arguably the worst album the Rolling Stones did during the 1960's has suddenly been transformed into one of the best bootleg releases ever, its reputation salvaged and its songs transformed into superb, punky psychedelia, and it's all because of the use of the mono mix (virtually unheard by anyone outside of England). Their Satanic Majesties Request has always been disliked by fans, who perceived it as the Rolling Stones trying to emulate the Beatles during the latter's psychedelic phase, and generally not sounding terribly good. The mono mix fixes all of that and then some -- indeed, all of a sudden, the album sounds great, and is great. The rhythm instruments are up front and solid, and from the opening bars of "Sing This All Together" through the punchy break on "In Another Land" to the extended jam on "Sing This All Together (See What Happend)" (as it's printed here), this sounds like the St...ones, pounding away hard and heavy, and scarcely like the Beatles at all. As expected, "2000 Man" is the highlight, with a crunchy guitar break that's right up close and personal, along with Jagger's vocals over it and Charlie Watts kicking the hell out of his kit while the organ twists little Arabesques around all of them; not far behind in terms of allure, amazingly enough, is "Sing This All Together (See What Happend" -- the horns sound much more integrated into the texture of the track and a lot more dissonant, the Mellotron is more up front in the mix, holding the piece together much better at the end, and the tom-toms and kettle drums are practically in your lap, while Keith Richards' guitar, doing strange psychedelic slides in the opening or playing a crunchy rhythm accompaniment to the horns, comes off as a true rock virtuoso performance. The rest of the album pretty much is elevated to a similar degree -- oddly enough, only "She's a Rainbow" isn't transformed radically -- and it's all more worth hearing than it's been in decades. The original LP has been augmented here by the presence of "Child of the Moon" in its original, thundering mono mix; "We Love You" and "Dandelion" in similar perfect monaural; and rough mixes of "In Another Land," "She's a Rainbow," "2000 Light Years From Home," and "The Lantern"; plus a rehearsal for the instrumental portion of the refrain on "2000 Man" (with lots of crunchy guitar), and two session outtakes featuring piano and acoustic guitar and organ and acoustic guitar, respectively.

This Truely is an Extremely Respectable 1st Original UK Mono copy and we would certainly regard it as Excellent as an overall grading standard.

The Original (3D) Hologram Outer Sleeve with Mono TXL 103 on the Rear Bottom Right is overall Excellent + with Extremely Low Wear. There is almost No Corner bumps Present around the Spine Area or the Side Opening insertion section. In fact, the Spine is 99% Perfect. The Text which runs Vertically down the Spine is Perfectly Legible as if it was released Today. In addition, the Print (as completed by Robert Stace, printed in England) throughout the Rear of the Outer Sleeve is amazingly Bold and again, Perfect. There are only Extremely Minor creases to the Outer Margins of the Hologram on the Front. A Genuinely Fantastic Original Outer Sleeve.

The TURQUOISE Unboxed Decca Labels are in Fantastic Condition with Extremely Low Amounts of Wear Evident throughout on both sides. The Text is Perfect, there is NO Deterioration to any Font of any Word on either Side, Perfect. In fact, if we were to be Critical of the labels, we would only have to emphasise light spindle marks around the Centre Holes.

The Vinyl Condtion is also Extremely Respectable and is clarified as Excellent. The Deep Glossy Shine is Fully Evident with a Few Hairlines on both Sides. There are No Deep Scratches at all. Indeed, the Hairlines are Not Vast and Excessive but there are a Few on each side. Therefore, the playback reflects this and there are No Jumps, No Pops or No Sticks throughout both Sides only light crackle.

The Decca Inner Bag is also clarified as Excellent + with No seam Splits. There Is also No Excessive Creasing or Deterioration to the Paper Material, ONLY MINOR fading present.
