England’s Newest Hitmakers

Description

More Info

LP is 180 gram vinyl.

Repress of the band’s debut – The album was issued as England’s Newest Hit Makers in the States, with Not Fade Away (which opened proceedings) displacing Mona, and did moderately well. In Britain, its release was an event. Despite daringly featuring no artist name or title on its half-lit cover, it became the first non-Beatles album to top the charts since May 1963. The Stones had not yet achieved the “way of life” status claimed for them in Oldham’s sleevenotes, but they were well on their way.
