Description
Sometimes we stumble on a real treasure, and this is one of them, We found this on the shelves of a family member who is no longer with us, but he was disorganized and a Rolling Stones fan, Apparently he bought this Rolling Stones Vinyl LP from 1966, "Aftermath", and forgot about it. We think it has been stored on his living room shelf at room temperature for approximately 50 years.
This is a sealed, brand new, original first edition Rolling Stones album! The catelogue # is PS476, indicating "Stereo." It was issued on London Records.
The album itself, contains the familiar tracks "Paint It Black," "Lady Jane," "Under My Thumb," and the 11 minute blues jam "Going Home," among others. But if you are reading this, I am guessing you already knew this. This is the Brian Jones era, and the infamous Jack Nitzsche also plays on this. This was early enough that Andrew Loog Oldham was still producing. (You canstill hear him as a DJ on Satellite Radio's "Little Stevie's Underground Garage" and boy does he have some stories).
I have taken photos of the actual items being sold. If you are a collector, this is one to consider. Please note: There is a sticker on the outside of the shrink wrap that was used by the local record store). ALSO PLEASE NOTE: There is a small tear on the shrink wrap on the bottom right hand of the front cover, and some wear on the corner of the cover in the same area. I have attached photos of this flaw, it is the last one of the pictures.
Please see photos of actual item being sold, including the tear in the shrink wrap mentioned above,

Not that the singles aren't killers; "Paint It Black" and "Under My Thumb" are two of the Stones' most inventive chart successes, their sitar and marimba touches showing that at least through 1966, the Stones were just as likely as the Beatles, Kinks or Who to release a single that sounded like nothing else on the radio.Of the album tracks, "Lady Jane" and "Stupid Girl" are standouts, the former another of the boys' Elizabethan oddities and the latter a stomping, snotty garage rocker. Even better, though, are formal experiments like "I Am Waiting," a spooky acoustic tune that sounds like the boys had been listening to George Harrison's Indian excursions. Several of the more blues-based tracks press the five-minute barrier, culminating in the nearly 12-minute blues-rock rave-up "Goin' Home," one of the few extended jams that's actually worth the extra minutes.
