New version of Rolling Stones Sticky Fingers album

THE ROLLING STONES ARE RERELEASING THEIR CLASSIC 1971 ALBUM STICKY FINGERS, ALONG WITH PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED MATERIAL AND ALTERNATIVE RE-WORKINGS OF BELOVED ALBUM TRACKS.

-Otto
This has always been one of my favorite albums of all times and possibly my favorite Rolling Stones album of all times. There is a even mix of jazz, hard rock and blues in this one album. I have always felt the legacy of the Stones is their ability to conform to so many other music styles besides just rock.
At one point they were able to do their own version of disco, such as "Miss You."
Sticky fingers is a classic album with some of my favorite tunes such as "Can't You Hear Me Knocking"  which is a mixture of jazz and hard rock. There is the classic Dead Flowers" a really cool blues song and "Bitch"  which is just plain fun. There is the extremely controversial "Brown Sugar"  which is actually about rape.
And let's not forget that the cover was designed by Andy Warhol.
