Description

The progression from blues to rock was evident on the Rolling Stones’ second American LP. They turned soul into guitar rock for the hits ‘It’s All Over Now’ (their first UK number one) and ‘Time Is on My Side’ (which was their first American Top Ten single). It also features the stunning instrumental blues-rock jam ‘2120 South Michigan Avenue’ and ‘Around and Around’ – one of their finest Chuck Berry covers, and includes the UK EP ‘Five By Five’, four tracks from the second UK LP and both sides of ‘It’s All Over Now’.
