The band would remain incensed with Klein for decades for that act. The band later sued for their return but without success, settling in 1984. However, their departing manager Allen Klein dealt the group a major blow when they discovered that they had inadvertently signed over their entire 1960s American copyrights to Klein and his company ABKCO, which is how all of their material from 1963's " Come On" to Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out! The Rolling Stones in Concert has since been released solely in America by ABKCO Records.
COVER ALBUM STINKY FREE
With the end of their Decca/London association at hand, the Rolling Stones were finally free to release their albums (cover art and all) as they pleased.
The album is inducted in the Grammy Hall of Fame and included in Rolling Stone magazine's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time list. Sticky Fingers was voted the second best album of the year in The Village Voice 's annual Pazz & Jop critics poll for 1971, based on American critics' votes. " Brown Sugar” topped the Billboard Hot 100 in 1971. It was the band's first album to reach number one on both the UK albums and US albums charts, and has since achieved triple platinum certification in the US. Sticky Fingers is considered one of the Rolling Stones' best albums. As with the other albums of the Rolling Stones classic late 1960s/early 1970s period, it was produced by Jimmy Miller. Additional contributions were made by long-time Stones collaborators including saxophonist Bobby Keys and keyboardists Billy Preston, Jack Nitzsche, Ian Stewart, and Nicky Hopkins. The unusual instrumentation introduced several albums prior was absent most songs featuring drums, guitar, bass, and percussion as provided by the key members: Mick Jagger (lead vocal, various percussion and rhythm guitar), Keith Richards (guitar and backing vocal), Mick Taylor (guitar), Bill Wyman (bass guitar), and Charlie Watts (drums). The album featured a return to basics for the Rolling Stones. The cover was expensive to produce and damaged the vinyl record, so later re-issues featured just the outer photograph of the jeans. The original cover artwork, conceived by Andy Warhol and photographed and designed by members of his art collective, The Factory, showed a picture of a man in tight jeans, and had a working zipper that opened to reveal underwear fabric. It is Mick Taylor's second full-length appearance on a Rolling Stones album (after the live album Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out!), and the first studio album without Brian Jones who died two years earlier. Sticky Fingers is the 9th British and 11th American studio album by the English rock band the Rolling Stones, released on 23 April 1971 on their new, and own, label Rolling Stones Records after previously having been contracted by Decca Records and London Records in the UK and US since 1963.
