You are bidding on a Vinyl Re-issue of the Rolling Stones’ 1969 album; “Let It Bleed.” This album is a U.S. release and is considered one of their top two or three albums ever.  It contains such classics as “Gimme Shelter,” “You Can’t Always Get What You Want,” an early version of “Honky Tonk Women,” (“Country Honk”) “Live With Me,” “Midnight Rambler” and the title tune among others. 

This album was originally released in 1969, and as best we can tell, this re-issue is from around 1978.  (London NPS-4).  There is no poster included with this listing.

We purchased this item in the decades ago, and it has been sitting in our home (vertically) for the last few decades. 

The LP is in close to excellent condition.  The album Jacket is in very good condition but does have signs of wear on the edges and corner.  (Please see photos).  Please remember that this album was well taken care of, but it was played as part of our record collection decades ago.  

This item has been stored at room temperature, in a smoke free home.  Please see photos of actual item being sold. 

Rolling Stones “Let It Bleed”

“Let It Bleed is the eighth British and tenth American album by 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 and the last album by the band to feature Brian Jones  as well as the first to feature Mick Taylor”.

Mostly recorded without  -- who died several months before its release (although he does play on two tracks) and was replaced by  (who also plays on just two songs) -- this extends the rock and blues feel of  into slightly harder-rocking, more demonically sexual territory. The Stones were never as consistent on album as their main rivals, , and Let It Bleed suffers from some rather perfunctory tracks, like "Monkey Man" and a countrified remake of the classic "Honky Tonk Woman" (here titled "Country Honk"). Yet some of the songs are among their very best, especially "Gimme Shelter," with its shimmering guitar lines and apocalyptic lyrics; the harmonica-driven "Midnight Rambler"; the druggy party ambience of the title track; and the stunning "You Can't Always Get What You Want," which was the Stones' "Hey Jude" of sorts, with its epic structure, horns, philosophical lyrics, and swelling choral vocals. "You Got the Silver" (' first lead vocal) and 's "Love in Vain," by contrast, were as close to the roots of acoustic down-home blues as the Stones ever got.”
