The Rolling Stones - Blood Red Wine - Non-Album Tracks (1968)

1968 was a pivotal year for the Rolling Stones. After dabbling in psychedelia, they got back to basic blues and roll and roll, and released the first of a series of classic albums.

At first glance, one would think that it wouldn't be possible to make an album of stray tracks just from 1968, because they only released one single that year, the number one hit "Jumpin' Jack Flash." A few more songs came out on the mid-1970s rarities album "Metamorphosis," but that's it. However, luckily, there are a bunch of high quality songs from that year that still have never been officially released in any form, and those rarities album songs are good too. In my opinion, it makes a top notch that most 1960s band would have killed to make.

There are some other stray songs on bootlegs that aren't so great, so I didn't include them. But there's just enough good material for a solid 41 minute album of the Stones in their prime.

I based the cover art on the cover of the "Jumpin' Jack Flash" single cover. But I made some changes, especially to the text. I chose the title "Blood Red Wine" in part because I thought calling it "Jumpin' Jack Flash" might cause people to confuse it with the single.
