The Rolling Stones Vinyl LP Records

Here you'll find The Rolling Stones vinyl LP records spanning studio albums, collections of familiar songs and live recordings. The band formed in London in 1962, grew out of blues and rock and roll, and still records today. Classics such as Beggars Banquet, Let It Bleed and Sticky Fingers sit alongside the 2023 album Hackney Diamonds. Many titles have been reissued on 180-gram vinyl, with some also available in remastered versions or on coloured vinyl.

Should you choose a studio album or a hits collection?

A compilation is a useful way to get to know the band. The two-record Hot Rocks 1964 - 1971 brings together hits from the sixties and early seventies, while Forty Licks and Honk combine songs from different periods. A studio album, on the other hand, gives you the band at one point in time with the original track sequence: Beggars Banquet and Let It Bleed from the late sixties, or Sticky Fingers and the double album Exile On Main Street from the early seventies.

Live recordings include Bridges To Bremen on three records. If you'd prefer an album on CD, visit the The Rolling Stones Music CDs page; you'll find both formats together on the The Rolling Stones LP Records and CDs page.

What do Half Speed Vinyl and a mono edition mean?

Half Speed Vinyl refers to records made by playing the audio source at half speed and cutting the recording into the master at the same reduced speed. You play the finished record at the normal speed of 33 1/3 revolutions per minute. Sticky Fingers, Exile On Main Street and Bridges To Babylon are among the albums issued this way here.

The band's early albums from the sixties were made with a mono mix. The Rolling Stones In Mono box set brings them together on 15 records. Aftermath is included here in its US version, which has a different track list from the British release.
