Hot Rocks 1964-1971
Description
Remastered reissue of 1972 compilation. Rolling Stones
Photos It’s the rare greatest-hits album that takes on a life of
its own. Generally, best-of collections are superceded by updated
retrospectives. Hot Rocks is one of the rare exceptions to the rule.
Originally released in 1972, it instantly became the Stones intro of choice,
elbowing aside Big Hits, High Tide and Green Grass and Through the Past
Darkly. Why? It happened to hit the racks when Mick and company were at their
creative peak. The 21 tracks found here represent seven years of dizzying
growth. From “Time is on My Side” through “Satisfaction” and “Let’s Spend the
Night Together,” on to Sticky Fingers’s “Brown Sugar” and “Wild Horses,” Hot
Rocks never lets up. The likes of Sucking in the ’70s and Jump Back come and
go, but this Stones overview will not be moved. –Steven Stolder
