TRACKLISTING:The groups second British album actually appeared after their second US LP mostly owing to the fact that the British rock & roll audience wasnt focused on the long-player as a medium (Singles and EPs were the driving force of the business in England then).

It uses the same David Bailey cover shot that had graced the US issued 12 X 5 album two months earlier but only four songs (Under The Boardwalk Suzie Q Grown Up Wrong and Time Is On My Side) overlap on the two albums.
Rather Rolling Stones No. 2 offered seven songs that werent to make it out in America until four months later on The Rolling Stones Now! It also incluudes one of the groups best blues covers their version of Muddy Waters I Cant Be Satisfied which wasnt released in America until 1973 and features some killer slide playing by Brian Jones. The U.K. LP was originally released in mono only & took forever to come out on CD in this form.

The original cover design found here carries sleeve notes that include the text: "If you dont have bread see that blind man knock him on the head steal his wallet and low and behold you have the loot if you put in the boot good another one sold!"
Not one of Mr Loog Oldhams wisest lyrical outpourings and they naturally caused uproar in January 1965 even to the extent of being debated in the UK Parliament. This was a bit too much for Decca and an alternate version of the back artwork was hastily prepared & the few they had left in the factories were overpasted with the new artwork. Most first issue sleeves continued to carry the text as they were already in the shops.

The labels are red with unboxed open Decca logo and ffrr ear with the deep grooves that were omitted from later pressings. This is the second of the fourth label variant of this early design that we know of with just the Made In England print along the top. This variant adds label credits below the group name at the bottom. The BIEM/NCB logo is to the left of the spindle hole.

The matrix numbers are machine stamped into the dead wax areas. They are as follows:

Side One XARL-6619-1A
Side Two XARL-6620-1A

The sleeve has nice clean panels & grades a reasonable VG. There is some creasing in the laminate as to be expected with no writing & all text clearly legible. There is some age wear to the bottom flipback including two splits & some paper tearing in that area caused by the flipback once being tape reinforced & then removed.

The heavyweight vinyl remains in Very Good condition with an impressive sheen. There are several light paper hairlines & mild scuffs not affecting play on a mono setting. A decent but by no means mint example.
