Complete Singles

WELL I GOT MY SET TODAY. THE PACKAGING IS BEAUTIFUL. THE ART WORK ON THE BOX IS REAL NICE.INSIDE SOMES CDS COME WITH PICTURES AND SOME DO NOT. I LISTENED TO 15 CDS TONIGHT AND THE REMASTERING IS AWESOME. YES IT IS EXPENSIVE AND IS A LOT OF MATERIAL TO LISTEN TO. THE REASON I BOUGHT IT BECAUSE I HAVE THE ROLLING STONES IN THE 60,S IN A SHM BOX SET AND ALSO I HAVE THE 70,S IN SHM. ALSO I HAVE THE 3 BOX SETS OF THE SINGLE COLLECTION OF THE 60,S I AM A ROLLING STONE COLLECTOR. SO I SAID WHY NOT BUY IT. I RATE THE SET 5 STARS. I AM SURE IN THE FUTURE THEY WILL HAVE THE SINGLES IN REGULAR RECORDS. I AM SURE THEY WILL HAVE MORE PRODUCTS IN THE FUTURE. IF ANY BODY IS A ROLLING STONE FAN I SAY BUY IT.

What an outstanding collection of singles this is from the greatest rock band ever! This is packaged perfectly, a sturdy slip-box housing 45 sleeves for 45 CD singles from 1971-2006. Some of these have cover art-work, others have the pics of the A-B sides of the 45 records, enclosed by the main eye/tongue logo of the box! The covers are fun to look at even without listening to the music! But the music is the main draw here - and the audio remastering of these are amazing! I read several complaints about "I Think I'm Going Mad" having a skip at the beginning... but I must say, it was so minor I could hardly notice it, and wouldn't have even caught it if I wasn't expecting it! LOL! So no problems for me on that complaint... my sleeves for "Hot Stuff" & "Fool To Cry" weren't mixed-up/duplicated like some reviewers have said, so that was a relief too! So now I can just sit back and have fun listening to these! I'm REALLY digging the B-sides from the "Voodoo Lounge" album which I've never heard before! "Jump On Top Of Me", "So Young", "The Storm" & "I'm Gonna Drive" are all FANTASTIC numbers that should've made the album! "Everything's Turning To Gold" is a "Some Girls" B-side I haven't heard before either... that one was nothing particularly special, but still couples well with "Shattered"! I also noticed "All Down The Line" was in mono which was a surprise! I didn't know they still made mono mixes after 1970 - cool stuff! All the classic hits are here as well..."Brown Sugar", "Angie", "Miss You", "Beast Of Burden"... it just goes on and on with the cool B-sides and alternate mixes to boot! I've heard 9 of these discs so far and have loved every second of it! Can't wait to ROCK OUT with 36 more! Highly recommended for any Rolling Stones fan/completist!

It's a great Ítem. It shows you how the RS have been grown since the beggining. From the start you have the typical 7" sleeve with only 2 or 3 songs. In the 80's you can find the first remixes and in the 90's the many parts of the singles. It's a great ítem for who have not lived the 70s and was a kid in the 80s, teen in the 90s but didn't know the singles of that period. Cheers and god bless RS!!

I just bought a brand new copy of this set from a trusted Amazon seller and if it were not for a couple of manufacturing errors, I would be perfectly happy. I saw that someone posted a review four years ago describing the exact same errors that I encountered, so I know that my box's problems are not the result of a random screw up. The sleeve for disc ten, "Hot Stuff/Fool To Cry", is a duplicate of the sleeve for disc nine, "Fool To Cry / Crazy Mama". My disc 23 also has the well known mastering glitch at beginning of "I Think I'm Going Mad". I wrote to Universal and they sent me a replacement CD for disc 23 but said I should return the box to Amazon for the sleeve mix-up. The funny thing is that the replacement CD that Universal sent has a different glitch! The "skip" is fixed", but the track marker for song two is off by a second or two. The beginning of song two, "I Think I'm Going Mad", starts in the last couple of seconds of track one. So if one goes to play song two directly, the first second or two is missing. I don't think there is any point in returning my box to the Amazon seller over the sleeve issue since there is no guarantee the sleeves would be correct in a replacement box. Besides that, I might not want to play every CD in this set over again right away to find out if anything is wrong with the replacement. I suppose I can ask Universal if they have a replacement for disc 23 that doesn't have the track marker error, but I'll probably just accept that the set is not to be perfect. This is a 5 star collection of music and the packaging really is nice. I just wish that a little more care would have been taken in the manufacturing and assembly of the set.

I will keep this short and sweet.I recommend this set to all Stones fans.The packaging is tight,with great ''tongue'' artwork on the second(interior) box,a hard bound booklet,with a commentary/interview w/Bill Wyman,and reproductions of all the sleeves from singles and ep's,7' releases,etc..Read the tracklisting in the product description,you'll find quite a few hidden gems and previously unreleased material(officially).A lot of music here,some 245 tracks,and a lot of live cuts and rare re-mixes.This is a great collectible and is a limited,numbered set.I opened mine carefully,making a slit on three sides of the cellophane,retaining the shrink wrap over the outer box,to keep the set in good condition.If you're a real Stones fan,this is a great collection.Enjoy!

What would like first, the good news or the bad news? The good news: this set has very attractive packaging, generally good sound quality, and approximately 80 out of print non-L.P. songs & mixes(previously offered on out of print 7" or 12" vinyl or CD singles) are now available again, and many of these rarities will be new to American fans. The bad news: even with the stated goal of including all 1971-2006 Rolling Stones 7",12" & CD singles tracks, this set falls short. Notably absent: "Too Much Blood"(extended version) "Too Much Blood"( dub version), "Winning Ugly"(New York Mix), "Sexdrive"(12" mix) & "Sexdrive"(Dirty Hands Mix). Hard core fans will remind me that UK & some U.S.A. vinyl singles of the 1971-1972 songs were mono mixes(dedicated mono mixes, not folded down from stereo), but the compiler of this box set uses the stereo album mixes. I may catch some flack for this, but having been a CD box set compiler in the 1990's and understanding the need to balance artistic & commercial requirements and fan wishes, I too would have chosen the stereo album mixes. Most people want stereo. (This set provides the stereo album mixes of the 1971-72 songs) Also, not only does "I Think I'm Going Mad" have a mastering glitch causing a skip in the music 0:04 seconds into the song, it is an edited version of the track, running 4:47 versus the full 5:47(I've had the track in my collection for many years on a German 12" single "She was Hot" b/w "I Think I'm Going Mad"). Since the song is a ballad, it is unlikely that there would have been different 7" & 12" edits. In the full uncut recording, there are several bars of saxophone playing in the intro, which are lost due to the mastering glitch/skip. Given the bad shape that the record labels are in these days, it is unlikely that Universal Music will acknowledge the defect or manufacture a corrected pressing. After all, Universal wouldn't put things right for consumers who bought recent box sets or Deluxe Editions by Derek & The Dominos, Level 42 & Mike Oldfield with mastering or manufacturing defects. Universal's attitude is "If we goofed, you're stuck with it!" Many of the early CD singles in this box are housed in generic Rolling Stones tongue sleeves, despite the fact that there were original 7" single picture sleeves for many of them. ......but the joke may soon be on Universal Music & The Rolling Stones: Online bootleggers will soon unleash a 56-disc FLAC torrent download version that shows just how incomplete this box set is. Apparently, there were many more dance mixes & variations that were exclusive to other countries other than the UK or U.S.A.

This is really a great box. All singles of the Stones in just one box. The nicest part is that some singles offer you 10 or more tracks, because originally the single came in different versions. All tracks of these different original versions are now combined on one single.

Great great compilation of the last 35 years of the Rolling Stones every record have his single in these box b'sides and live takes of the songs that not are incluided in the official record.Fantastic for everyone who loves the music of the Rolling Stones.

Stonesﾚｰﾍﾞﾙ発足後のｼﾝｸﾞﾙを45枚収録！なんだが・・・ ｺﾝﾌﾟじゃ無いんですよね（泣） 当初噂されていた#1‾3 Brown Suger/Bitch/Let It Rock/Wild Horses/Sway/Tumblin' Diceも最終的にはMono Mixで無く従来通りのStereo Mixと成り ｺｱなﾌｧﾝを落胆させた。その他 Too Much Bloodの12" Versionも未収録！（手元に有る Sad Sad Sadのｵｰｽﾄﾗﾘｱ盤5"CDにはMain Vocal Versionが収録されて いるので、未CD化では無いのですが、何故収録され無かったのでしょうか？） 他にもStrippedからのｼﾝｸﾞﾙ Wild Hoesesなんて無視！ 無かった事にされてますからねぇ（苦笑）ここでのTumbli' DiceはRarites 1971-2003に収録されているから良し！なんでしょうか？ ｶﾅﾀﾞのみのﾘﾘｰｽ Wining UglyのNY Mixも未収録。Sex Driveも7" Mix以外はｵﾐｯﾄ。ｵﾗﾝﾀﾞｵﾝﾘｰのﾘﾘｰｽ "Flash Point "からの JJFのｼﾝｸﾞﾙCDに収録された映画 "At The Max"からの音源 Tumbli' Dice/ Street Fighting Manも未収録！ と重箱の隅を突けば色々と不満も有りますが、此処でｵﾘｼﾞﾅﾙ・ｱﾙﾊﾞﾑ未収録音源がCDに纏められた意義は大きい！ ｼﾞｬｹｯﾄの紙質もまぁまぁｵﾘｼﾞﾅﾙ・ﾘﾘｰｽ時のｼﾞｬｹｯﾄの色合いを再現している点には拍手を送りたいし、"All Down The Line"のﾓﾉ・ｵﾙﾀﾅﾃｨﾌﾞ・ﾊﾞｰｼﾞｮﾝはｱﾙﾊﾞﾑ・ﾊﾞｰｼﾞｮﾝより「華やか」感を演出する為に他の曲より音圧を上げて収録する等、心憎い気使いが随所で感じられる好企画ですぜ！ Bill Wymanさんの手記が掲載されたﾌﾞｯｸﾚｯﾄも丁寧な作りで好感が持てる。 限定生産でﾅﾝﾊﾞｰﾘﾝｸﾞ入り！全173曲（うち重複23曲）Stones関連の音源はこれら貴重ﾃｲｸが今後いつ再発されるか解らない為、有るうちに購入をお勧めしますよ〜

Muy buen disco para los que somos nostálgicos del punk rock, y me llegó en menos de 24 hrs...

As far as compilations go, this is as good as it gets. Comprehensive with some absolute bangers on there. Perfect for the car.

It arrived quickly and in perfect condition. I’m glad I bought it.

5 stelle perché malgrado l'iniziale delusione, mi sono poi ripresa: per errore ho pensato si trattasse di CD veri e propri con tanto di copertina rigida, booklet e testi delle canzoni. E invece mi sono trovata di fronte a una moltitudine di CD contenuti solo in un'appropriata busta di cartone e contenenti pochissimi brani nelle versioni più disparate. Sul momento lo volevo quasi rendere, ma ripensandoci, la mia curiosità nel conoscere sempre cose nuove, quindi in questo caso le diverse versioni di un brano, mi ha trattenuta.
