THE ROLLING STONES | Out of Our Heads [1965] Vinyl Review | States & Kingdoms

The Rolling Stones | Out of Our Heads [1965]

We recently purchased the Rolling Stones In Mono 16 LP Box Set, just re-released, and we plan to move through each record in order! A series!!

#3 Out of Our Heads (UK version) - this record has a loose, easy sound. A tactile rawness comes through, although the band is tight as ever. Bass and drums pound on this release, and Mick Continues to impress. Although the American version has the singles which show off the band's development as writers, this album is still a great R&B time.

Out of Our Heads is the 3rd British and 4th American studio album by the English rock band the Rolling Stones, released in two editions with different covers and track listings. In the US, London Records released it on July 30th 1965, while Decca Records released its UK edition on September 24th 1965. Besides the key band members of singer Mick Jagger, guitarists Brian Jones and Keith Richards, bassist Bill Wyman, and drummer Charlie Watts, the album also contains musical contributions from former Rolling Stones member Ian Stewart. It was produced by the group's manager Andrew Loog Oldham.

As with the prior two albums, it consists mostly of covers of American blues, soul and rhythm and blues songs, though the group wrote some of their own material for this album (4 out of the 12 tracks on the UK version, and 6 out of 12 for the USA version). The American version contains "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction", which would be the band's first number one US hit, and would go on to top the charts in 10 other countries, including the band's native UK, and being ranked as the second greatest song of all time by Rolling Stone.
Out of Our Heads became the group's first number one on the American Billboard 200 album chart; in the UK it charted at number two.
