Their Satanic Majesties Request - 50

• Track Listing

The Stones’ psychedelic album is no hippy-dippy, flower-child jaunt—it’s a dark trip full of eerie synths and hazy journeys from dreams into nightmares and back. Like nothing else in their copious catalog, this 1967 LP remains a controversial one for fans and critics; it was always divisive, but has begun to more uniformly escalate in esteem over the years. This limited-edition, hand-numbered 50th-anniversary reissue announces itself with majesty, all right, arriving on two 180-gram vinyl LPs and two hybrid SACDs in an eight-panel gatefold package featuring the original lenticular cover. The booklet boasts an in-depth essay as well as photos from the original cover shoot, and the album comes to you in both mono and stereo mixes (on both the vinyl and SACDs). The lacquer was cut at Abbey Road; truly, this was done right: "Citadel," "In Another Land," "She’s a Rainbow," "The Lantern," "2000 Light Years from Home," "On with the Show," "Gomper" and more. A newly remastered (by Bob Ludwig) return to the Rolling Stones’ most heady, experimental days! Abkco.
