The Rolling Stones – Between the Buttons (CD)
Product Details
Recorded in late 1966 at the tail end of the band's most relentless touring years, Between the Buttons captures the Stones in a transitional moment, leaning into the psychedelic currents sweeping London while still rooted in the rhythm and blues that made them. It sits between the rawness of Aftermath and the darker ambitions of Their Satanic Majesties Request, a peculiar, underappreciated corner of their catalog worth revisiting.
Remastered USA version, the last of their albums to be released with a different track listing in America & Britain, "Let's Spend the Night Together" & "Ruby Tuesday" were both included having been released as a double a-side in America."Ruby Tuesday" went to number one in early 1967. Both the US and the UK version of the album was the last to be 'produced' by Andrew Loog Oldham. "Something Happened to Me Yesterday" features Brian Jones on sax and trombone. Regular keyboard players Jack Nietzsche and Ian Stewart are joined by Nicky Hopkins, who plays piano on several tracks, the start of his lengthy spell as a sideman. The iconic cover photo was shot by acclaimed rock photographer Gered Mankowitz.
