Between The Buttons -The Rolling Stones (Arrives in 4 days )

Released in 1967, this was the legendary band’s seventh American, and fifth UK, studio album. With famous tracks such as ‘Back Street Girl’, ‘Yesterday’s Papers’, ‘Ruby Tuesday’, and ‘Please Go Home’, the album was the beginning of the band’s brief fling with psychedelic rock. Following the success of ‘Aftermath’, the incredible lyrical pair of Jagger and Richards came together to pen down the material for this album as well, and the result was incredible.

However, Jagger was very disappointed with the end result. All the back and forth that happened during recording, overdubs, and more led him to state that most of the album was ‘rubbish’. In fact, the only song he truly liked was ‘Back Street Girl’.

Despite his harsh words, it was clear that the audience didn't agree. ‘Between the Buttons’ was a commercial and critical success. Many of its singles even hit the Billboard Hot 100, while the album itself was within the top 10 in three countries. In fact, critic Robert Christgau went so far as to call it one of the greatest rock albums! This was further emphasized as it reached Gold status in the States. It was even included in Rolling Stone’s 500 Greatest Album’s of All Time.

So whether you’d like to go with the critics or disagree with Jagger, there is no doubt that this is a must-have for all the band’s fans.
