Editorial Review:
Digitally remastered edition of the Rock 'N' Roll veterans' 1971 album, originally the first album for their own Rolling Stones Records imprint. Though the album was pieced together from various sessions, it remains one of their most iconic albums. 10 tracks including 'Brown Sugar', 'Bitch' and 'Wild Horses'.
Sticky Fingers Reviews:
Why ruin a great LP 
2009-11-02 - In this day and age , why would anyone compress the sound levels just to gain a louder pressing. The virgin pressing is better. Someone needs to step in and redo the Stones catalog properly.
One of the Rolling Stones best efforts ever 
2009-10-31 - A classic and overall stellar representation of the Rolling Stones during a peak period of their history.
What can I say?
2009-10-25 - This is a classic and has a great sound quality to it.
A must have for serious collectors.
So glad I got to see them at Ford Field in Detroit when they came. Worth every penny and will see them again if they ever tour again.
what a lot of memories
2009-10-22 - for some reason, this album seems to hold a lifetime of teen memories. for me, it's one of best ever.
Re-mastering is crap
2009-10-05 - I have to agree with the other comments about the re-mastering here. I was quite surprised how hot it sounded. "Wild Horses" in particular, sounded like it was distorting at times. I checked my levels, and it wasn't my gear, so just out of curiousity, I opened the file in Logic to see what the waveform looked like. I knew without checking that it must have been a recent digital re-master, because it's hot as all hell, and clipping significantly on the choruses. Made me realise that for old 60s/70s music, I should really be looking for the 80s/90s cd versions I guess, or analogue. Really kind of sad, given that the 70s were so obsessed with recording quality, that all that love and care is being lost just for loudness, which you can get by turning up your amp or iPod anyway. Really don't get it... I thought the "loudness war" was limited to recent releases, quite saddened to see it's even being applied to re-masters of old music.
Great music, possibly The Stones' best album, but this is not the version to buy.
