Description
"Let it Bleed" is the eighth British and the tenth American studio album by English rock band the Rolling Stones, released in December 1969 by Decca Records in the United Kingdom and London records in the United States. Released shortly after the band's 1969 American Tour, it is the follow-up to 1968's "Beggars Banquet". The album was recorded during a period of turmoil in the band; Brian Jones, the band's founder and original leader, had become increasingly unreliable in the studio due to heavy drug use, and during most recording sessions was either absent, or so incapacitated that he was unable to contribute meaningfully. He was fired in the midst of recording sessions for this album, and replaced by Mick Taylor. Jones appeared on this album on only two songs, playing backing instruments, and died within a month of being fired. Taylor had been hired after principal recording was complete on many of the tracks, and likewise appears on only two songs, having recorded some guitar overdubs. As such, Keith Richards was the band's sole guitarist during most of the recording sessions, being responsible for nearly all of the rhythm and lead parts. The other Stones members (Mick Jagger, Bill Wyman and Charlie Watts) appear on nearly every track, and significant additional contributions were made by percussionist Jimmy Miller (who also produced the album), keyboardists Nicky Hopkins and Ian Stewart, and numerous other guest musicians including Ry Cooder. The album charted as a top-ten album in several markets, including reaching #1 in the UK and #3 in the US. Many of the albums songs became staples of Rolling Stones live shows and on rock radio stations for decades to come, including 2 gospel-infused songs, "Gimme Shelter" and "You Can't Always Get What You Want", both of which ranked highly on retrospective "best ever" song lists, including 2004's "500 Greatest Songs of All Time" by Rolling Stone magazine. It was voted #40 in Colin Larkin's All Time Top 1000 Albums 3rd Edition (2000). This is the 1969 ORIGINAL US VINYL LP Pressing on the London records label. The catalog # on the spine is: NPS-4.
