As with so many of the classic album reissues on vinyl, the success is in the presentation—the remastering, the pressing and packaging, the extras. Without a single caveat, this weighty collection honoring the Stones’ 13th studio slab is spectacular.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe place to start is with the fidelity. The Stones turned over the original tapes to Steven Wilson, the highly in-demand, modern maestro of the remix, to revisit the proper album—one that finds the legendary band at, possibly, its most diverse. Wilson’s remix, as hoped, is sheer sonic brilliance. Never have these tracks sounded sharper, more cohesive, and more dynamic than on this new mix. Follow that with Matt Colton’s top-flight mastering—the Grammy-winning engineer worked with the Stones previously on Hackney Diamonds—and Black and Blue in this 2025 incarnation, on whisper-quiet wax, is the one to have.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBack in 1976, Black and Blue was known in Stones circles as the “audition” album; the first after the departure of guitarist Mick Taylor, who’d sparkled on a string of efforts- Let It Bleed, Sticky Fingers, and Exile on Main Street, to name three- many consider among rock’s finest. So, it wasn’t a hole to fill. It was a crater.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith guest spots at the B\u0026amp;B sessions by a few notable axe-men—from Jeff Beck and Harvey Mandel to Wayne Perkins and Robert A. Johnson—the talent pool was Olympian. In the end, the band went with Beck’s bandmate from his Rod Stewart days, Ronnie Wood, and the rest is Rolling Stones history. Looking back now, it seems inevitable that Wood would get the gig, yet this set includes some of the jams with the runners-up that tantalize the imagination. A take of Beck’s “Freeway Jam” is as intriguing to hear as it is historic, if ultimately bolstering the conclusion that Wood was the best fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs for the three LPs and Blu-ray that contain live performances from ‘76- the vinyl from a hometown residency at Earls Court; the video from a TV broadcast of a Paris show—it’s more peak-Stones magic. Again, the addition of Wood is hand-in-glove, weaving as he would so well for the next five decades with Keith Richards, complementing- with the just the right attitude and attire—the gargantuan stage presence of Mick Jagger, and, most importantly, playing guitar like an ace. Toss in some previously unreleased cuts and a coffee-table-ready book, and this is a box set that gets it exactly right.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo Comments comments associated with this post\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e— Larson Sutton, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/jambands.com\/reviews\/2026\/01\/16\/the-rolling-stones-black-and-blue-5-lp-deluxe-edition\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ejambands.com\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"relix-editorial\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlack and Blue arrived at a crossroads moment for the Stones, recorded across Rotterdam, Munich, and Musicland Studios while the band auditioned potential replacements for Mick Taylor through the sessions themselves. The result was looser, funkier, and more groove-obsessed than anything in their catalog to that point, reflecting heavy influences from reggae and R\u0026amp;B that would quietly reshape what a Rolling Stones record could sound like.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Rolling Stones - Black And Blue (2025 Steven Wilson Mix) (Limited Super Deluxe Edition 180-gram Vinyl + Blu-ray Boxset) - VINYL LP - Celebrate the Rolling Stones' 1976 album, Black and Blue, with this comprehensive box set. This album marked a pivotal moment, as it was the first to feature Ronnie Wood as a full member, contributing his iconic guitar work. Acclaimed at the time by Billboard as being \"one of their most purely enjoyable albums of the '70s\" the reputation of the album has only grown, with Uncut declaiming \"Forty-one minutes of super-tight, bone-dry, hi-fi rock and soul, Black and Blue is one of the Stones' most underrated albums.\" This collection includes 5 LPs on 180g vinyl featuring a new Steven Wilson mix of the album, unreleased outtakes and a live recording from their 1976 Earls Court show, a Blu-Ray disc with a previously unreleased live TV recording from Paris and Dolby Atmos mixes, a 100-page hardcover book with a new essay by Stones expert Paul Sexton and a new interview with Ronnie Wood, plus a Paris show poster.
