Story & Background
For this first pressing from 1973, it is essential to recall the controversy surrounding the track "Star Star". Originally titled "Starfucker", the explicit lyrics and provocative title caused no small amount of headaches for the band and their US distributing label, Atlantic Records. Ahmet Ertegun, the head of Atlantic, categorically refused to press the album with that title, fearing legal and moralistic repercussions. A tug-of-war ensued, culminating in The Rolling Stones' reluctant decision to shorten the title to "Star Star", while keeping every explicit reference in the verses intact. An audacious gesture that underscores their unstoppable rebellious streak, even in the face of industry pressure, and which makes this first edition a testament to a small, but significant, battle for freedom of expression.
