Aftermath is the album where the Rolling Stones became songwriters first and blues interpreters second, and this remastered CD edition presents the original British running order.
Released in 1966, it was the band's first album made up entirely of Jagger and Richards songs, recorded in Los Angeles between tours. The UK version runs to fourteen tracks and well over fifty minutes, long for its time, and it shows a group suddenly confident enough to try anything, from Elizabethan pastiche to extended blues jams.
Brian Jones is the secret weapon. His dulcimer turns "Lady Jane" into a courtly ballad and his marimba drives the sly menace of "Under My Thumb," while "Mother's Little Helper" opens on a sour, buzzing, sitar-like hook. "Out of Time," a jaunty song with a cruel streak, would later become a hit for Chris Farlowe, while the sprawling "Goin' Home" stretches out past eleven minutes of loose, hypnotic groove.
The lyrics can be sharp-tongued and unkind, very much a product of their moment, but the musical invention is undeniable.
This is the Stones at the turning point between their early sound and their imperial years. For anyone curious about how they grew from cover band to legend, the UK Aftermath is the essential chapter.
