Performance:   Sonics:
57 tracks spanning the whole of the London years, I’ve you're considering buying a Stones album and your not much of a fan, then you should go for this one.
This album has everything a non-fan should ever want to own by the Stones. Non of the late 70’s, 80’s and 90’s crap is on here and for me that’s a good thing. The Stones should have stopped making music when the Beatles did. There is little more revolting than over the hill musicians trying to live up to their glory years.
Off course that’s just my opinion, everyone is free to disagree.

Performance:   Sonics:
Most of the stones albums have 10-12 cuts with 2 or 3 being filler cuts. This 3 SACD album averages 19 cuts per SACD and has all of their early "hits." A couple cuts could be viewed as "filler singles", but they aren't that bad. If you planned to buy only one of the ABKCO Stone Remasters, this is it.

Performance:   Sonics:
Despite being 44, I'm new to the Stones anmd have only taken an interest because of their earlier work being available on Hybrid SACD-which I'm a very big fan of. Anyway this CD is simply awesome. It covers the very best of their work-not a Stone being left unturned (pardon the pun...)and quite simply staggering audio quality whether played in standard CD or SACD mode. In my opinion anybody with any interst in pop/rock music shoud BUY IT! There's an awful lot of music here which laid the groundwork for bands later on and some music I'd heard but never realised it was the Stones (which is terrible I know). In all honesty not a bad track on it

Performance:   Sonics:
Excellent 3 Disc set including all essential Stones Hits from the London Years and then some.
But they didn't include "Under My Thumb" which is one of my favorites. Great sound and a great collection for those who don't wish to buy the entire set.
