The Rolling Stones’ Most Coveted Releases

The Rolling Stones are back with new music. The band released the critically acclaimed Hackney Diamonds in late 2023, and it’s their first album of original material since 2005’s A Bigger Bang.

Formed in 1962, the Stones — comprised of vocalist Mick Jagger, guitarist Keith Richards, bassist Bill Wyman, drummer Charlie Watts, and multi-instrumentalist Brian Jones (later replaced by Mick Taylor) — went on to become one of music’s most popular and enduring bands. Their style, which was rooted in blues and early rock and roll, placed them at the forefront of the British Invasion. As their sound continued to evolve, they began to be praised as one of the greatest bands of all time.

To celebrate their latest record, which features collaborations with Paul McCartney, Elton John, Stevie Wonder, and Lady Gaga, let’s take a look back at the band’s most coveted releases. There’s plenty to choose from — the Rolling Stones have released over 25 studio albums during their six-decade career.
