THIS RARE ALBUM HAS BEEN IN MY PRIVATE COLLECTION SINCE I PURCHASED IT IN 1968.This is a first pressing MONO copy on thick vinyl in Near Perfect condition. I have graded it Near Perfect because I don't believe any 35 year old vinyl can be Perfect unless it has never been played . There a very few examples of this fantastic Album that are in such good condition.
This is one of the Rolling Stones most important records it was recorded at the beginning of the best period in their career. and dominated the musical world. The first track, "Sympathy for the Devil" is one of their greatest rock songs closely followed by Street Fighting Man. The rest of the Tracks are classic acoustic blues/rock songs.
Every serious Rolling Stones fan should have this album in their collection.
