The Rolling Stones-Now! ****
Released in 1965 this was The Rolling Stones third LP release. While still at this point in their career they were mostly playing covers as they had yet to develop the chops for what would become the greatest songwriting duo in rock n' roll history.
The covers may not be original but they show great talent and taste. Keith's and Brian's guitar playing on 'Mona' and 'Down The Road Apiece' showcase two of the instruments all time greats breeding new life into already classic songs. 'Little Red Rooster' became more of a Stones classic then anyone elses, they truly made it their own. Wyman and Watts hold down the tight rhythm while Mick Jaggers legendary drawl of words was working the vocals.
But aside from the covers the band did write a few great tunes like the tender 'Heart Of Stone' and the rocking 'Surprise Surprise' were both great. Especially the former which went on to be a #19 hit single in its day.
The Rolling Stones Now! is always a refreshing listen. To journey that far back and that early in the bands career and still hear how great they sounded even then shows why they are where they are now. This album even though is made of mostly covers shows what was to come from the band and for that I think it is important for every Stones fan to hear.

The covers on this 1965 gem are a bit more obscure than on the Stones' first two long-players, not a bad thing for a band still getting its writing chops together (if admirably; "Heart of Stone" and "Surprise, Surprise" are particularly strong). If there were still doubts that these London kids had any business playing this music, a casually scorching "Down the Road Apiece" should have allayed them; the stomp they lay on Bo Diddley's "Mona" and Jagger's lazy drawl on the New Orleans obscurity "Down Home Girl" make for canny mood changes. --Rickey WrightRemastered reissue of 1964 album, suitable for standard & 'Super Audio' CD players.
