Between this album and "Hot Rocks" you will have a wonderful sampling of the Rolling Stones
catalog up to 1969. Very nice B sides, and big hits, as the title suggests.

I have an old vinyl version of "More Hot Rocks" and it seems that the SACD album was cleaned
up quite a bit. I can't get into much of mono vs stereo vs reverb vs vinyl vs digital and the
alternate content, et alia. Balderdash. I simply enjoy all of the music on this album and it nicely
compliments "Hot Rocks", one of their better "best of" early works compilations.

When you look at the outside of the album there is no indication that these are SACD discs. You
need to look at the discs, on the bottom, and on the inside of the attached booklet when it is
first unfolded. There you will see the SACD DSD information. The catalog number for the album is
'96262' and is found on the spine, and on the discs. These discs were made in Japan.

The attached booklet on the first inside cover of the album folds out revealing photos, a list of
the songs, info on the SACD recording, and finally fully opened, a small poster of the group.

If you are one who wants to completely explore The Rolling Stones, then, just start buying their
albums, one at a time (all have been remastered), in the order of their release. Doing so will
allow you to go on a bluesy rockin' journey through the Stones first decade of music.

If you are not sure about buying all their albums, up to 1969, then purchase the two disks, "Hot
Rocks" and "More Hot Rocks". You will get a good feel for the group and how they grew as writers
and performers throughout the 60's.

The main song writers, Jagger and Richards, were always amazed at how quickly Lennon and
McCartney could write a song in those early days. From what the Glimmer Twins (Mick and Keith)
claimed it would take them months to complete a song. Between them they have contributed to
the Rock 'n' Roll vocabulary for decades to come, whether it is with the lyrics or with Keith's
now classic guitar riffs.

I gave it 5 stars for the SACD DSD version and the packaging. Well worth the extra bit of money.
Even if you purchase the CD version you will appreciate and love most of the songs on this 2 disc
retrospective. Good listening to you all.
