Item location:. Terre Haute, Indiana, United States. Ships to:. The album also marked the 10th anniversary since the release of the band's debut album, The Rolling Stones. It's Only Rock 'n Roll combines the core blues and rock 'n' roll -oriented sound with elements of funk and reggae. Though it wasn't as successful as their prior albums, It's Only Rock 'n Roll was an important transitional album for the Rolling Stones.

Guitarist Mick Taylor missed the initial recording sessions with health problems, and ended up quitting the Rolling Stones a few months after the album's release. The rest of the instrumentation included bassist Bill Wyman and drummer Charlie Watts , as well as frequent collaborators Ian Stewart , Nicky Hopkins , and Billy Preston , and featured the first appearance of percussionist Ray Cooper , who would continue to work with the Rolling Stones into the s.

The title track bears special note as it was recorded separately from the rest of the album. The basic rhythm track had been laid down by members of the Faces , including rhythm guitarist Ronnie Wood and drummer Kenney Jones , during a jam session with Mick Jagger, David Bowie , and bassist Willie Weeks.

Jagger liked the song so much, he brought the basic track to Richards, who added some guitar overdubs, and after some polishing, it was put on the album as-is. After Taylor left the Rolling Stones at the end of , the band would approach Wood to become a full-time member.

According to guitarist Keith Richards , "We were really hot off the road and ready just to play some new material. Peellaert eventually painted the band as "rock deities," descending a temple staircase, surrounded by young girls and women worshiping them in Grecian clothing. The artist refused to sign a deal of exclusivity, and in provided the album art for David Bowie 's Diamond Dogs.

The cover of "Ain't Too Proud to Beg" was the only recording to make the cut, while the "Drift Away" cover is a popular bootleg. Also, Mick and I felt that we wanted to try and do it ourselves because we really felt we knew much more about techniques and recording and had our own ideas of how we wanted things to go.

Goats Head Soup hadn't turned out as we wanted to — not blaming Jimmy or anything like that But it was obvious that it was time for a change in that particular part of the process of making records. Starting with this release, all future Rolling Stones albums would either be produced by themselves or in collaboration with an outside producer. Most of the album's backing tracks were recorded first at Musicland; solo vocals were recorded later by Jagger, about whom Richards would say, "he often comes up with his best stuff alone in the studio with just an engineer.

Seven of the album's 10 songs crack the four-minute mark, a feature that would come to be disparaged during the rising punk rock scene of the late s. Ronnie Wood , a long-time acquaintance of the band, began to get closer to the Rolling Stones during these sessions after he invited Mick Taylor to play on his debut album, I've Got My Own Album to Do.

Taylor spent some time recording and hanging out at Wood's house, The Wick. By chance, Richards was asked one night by Wood's wife at the time, Krissy, to join them at the guitarist's home. Wood worked closely on the track with Jagger, who subsequently took the song and title for their album.

The released version of this song features Wood on string acoustic guitar. It's Only Rock 'n Roll was Mick Taylor's last album with the Rolling Stones, and he played on just seven of the 10 tracks he did not play on tracks 2, 3 or 6.

If You Can't Rock Me is Stones on autopilot, as is pretty much the rest. The cover of Ain't Too Proud seems pointless. Still, this is a "buy" if you are a vinyl diehard and feel your collection will be incomplete without one of the absolute, most-overlooked jewels of a song that any rock band has ever recorded. Time Waits is that great/5(16).
