Story & Background
"Aftermath" from 1966 represents an absolute milestone in The Rolling Stones' discography and in the history of rock. It was their first album composed entirely of original tracks penned by the celebrated duo Jagger/Richards, marking a decisive emancipation from R&B covers and establishing them as prolific and mature songwriters. But the innovation wasn't limited to songwriting: Brian Jones, a true experimental genius, elevated the album's sound with instrumental eclecticism unprecedented for the era. During the sessions, Jones showcased a wide range of instruments, from the dulcimer in "Lady Jane" to the sitar in the iconic "Paint It Black" (present in the USA version), from the marimba in "Under My Thumb" to the Japanese koto in "Going Home". This sonic audacity, combined with the new lyrical depth, shaped a complex and fundamental work, redefining their status as a band and consolidating their definitive artistic identity which resonates in every reproduction, even in reissues like this one from 1970, maintaining its revolutionary impact intact.
