Product Description
Aftermath, released April 1966 by Decca Records, is the fourth British studio vinyl record by the Rolling Stones. It was released in the United States in June 1966 by London Records as their sixth American record. The album is considered an artistic breakthrough for the band, being the first full-length release of their records to consist entirely of Mick Jagger/Keith Richards compositions. Brian Jones played a variety of instruments not usually associated with rock music—including sitar on “Paint It Black”, the Appalachian dulcimer on “Lady Jane” and “I Am Waiting”, the marimbas (African xylophone) on “Under My Thumb” and “Out of Time”, harmonica on “High and Dry” and “Goin’ Home”, a Japanese koto on “Take It or Leave It”, as well as guitar and keyboards. Much of the music was still rooted in Chicago electric blues. Format: Vinyl LP
