The Stones!
The Rolling Stones- Their Satanic Majesties Request 1967
Regardless of what you may think of "The Rolling Stones" as a whole, all their albums, all their singles... One certainly cannot deny that this is a true masterpiece. The Stones truly showed in this, their only true dip into psychedelia, that they are masters of music. They manage to sum up everything about psych, with the help of a vast array of instruments.
Some songs are wierd, some have crazy sounds and some are just pure blasts of mind bending sounds! Kick back with a nice joint, put on your headphones, and press play! I guarentee you wont be dissapointed!
Also, the CD packaging, Crikey, the most psych packaging I've ever seen! Not sure if I have the normal re-issue print or if it's a limited edition or something, but it is truly awesome to see!
It's the "Inaugural Edition Hybrid Disc" 2002, if you want to buy the album and haven't already, get this one, I love it!

Thanks for posting this Tom. I should have this but have only got a few tracks on a compilation CD that I burnt! But there, if only I could have every CD that I wanted!
Cheers.
Great album... but I think the Stones we trying to play 'catch up' with The Beatles and their Sgt. Pepper album at this point in their career :-)
Still, a classic LP. Thanks!
I was around when this came out in vinyl form. Your image looks like a reproduction of the original cover art. The original center panel, showing the Stones, was actually an embossed piece of plastic with "shimmer" effects -- like the old "flicker" cards that changed images when you moved them. The center panel was affixed to the cardboard sleeve.
Did they do this also on the CD, or is it just a one-piece printed picture?
thanks for this.
The Rollings Stones venture into the world of psychedia. Gotta love it.
although the album may have initially been viewed as a failure, resulting in the stones
return to the blues(beggers banquet),still there are some great songs on here.
"she's a rainbow" and "citidal" being my favorites.
