GRRR! The Rolling Stones announce greatest hits album


The Rolling Stones, ABKCO Music & Records and Universal Music Group are pleased to announce the release of GRRR! by the Rolling Stones on the 12th November 2012 for the world, excluding North America, and on the 13th November 2012 in North America.

Available in five different formats, including a three-CD 50 track version including 50 tracks, and a four-CD super-deluxe version gathering a whopping 80 tracks, the collection tells the fascinating ongoing story of the Greatest Rock’n'Roll Band In The World, from their high octane version of Chuck Berry’s “Come On”, their first single issued in June 1963, via the thrilling chart-toppers “The Last Time”, “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction”, “Get Off Of My Cloud”, “Jumping Jack Flash”, “Honky Tonk Women” and the perennial juke-box and concert favourites “Brown Sugar”, “Tumbling Dice”, “Miss You” and “Start Me Up”, all the way to the present day with the inclusion of “Gloom And Doom” and “One Last Shot”, two new studio recordings recently completed by the group in Paris, France in August 2012.

These brand new recordings constitute the first time Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood have all been together in the recording studio since completing the exalted A Bigger Bang album in 2005, and follow on from the critically-acclaimed expanded re-releases of the historic 40th Anniversary live Madison Square Garden concert Get Yer Ya-Ya’s Out in November 2009, and of two of their seventies masterworks, Exile on Main St., in May 2010, and Some Girls, in November 2011.

All GRRR! formats will feature a striking painting by award-winning American artist Walton Ford, who has created the latest in a long line of iconic artwork that has always been part of the band’s DNA.

In celebration of the Rolling Stones’ incredible journey, an innovative campaign has been launched to reveal their GRRR! Greatest Hits album sleeve using 3D Augmented Reality.

During a three week teaser campaign fans were invited to download the free uView app in preparation for the announcement. From today, using the uView app fans can scan the GRRR! sleeve and watch the stunning imagery come to life in 3D animation right before their eyes. The campaign will have further exciting updates coming soon. The use of one of the most advanced forms of mobile technology currently around solidifies The Rolling Stones as one of the most innovative bands in the world and as relevant as they have always been. The technology has been developed in partnership with Aurasma, the leaders in image recognition and augmented reality technology.

GRRR! GREATEST HITS FORMATS:

50 Track 3CD album

3CD / 50 tracks in a digipack with 24 page booklet

50 Track 3CD Deluxe Edition

3CD / 50 tracks in a DVD size box with 36 page hardback book and 5 postcards

"800 pound gorilla" is an American English expression for a person or
organization so powerful that it can act without regard to the rights of others
or the law. The phrase is rooted in a riddle:

"Where does an 800 lb. gorilla sleep?"

The answer:

"Anywhere it wants to."

This highlights the disparity of power between the "800 lb. gorilla" and everything else.

The term can describe a powerful geopolitical and military force, or, in
business, a powerful corporate entity that has such a large majority percentage
of whatever market they compete within that they can use that strength to crush
would-be competitors.

(I think this means that, win or lose, Obama launches the war on Iran right
after the election, say around 12 November)

Interesting that one of the new songs is called One Last Shot.

not to mention everybody's fave "doom and gloom"

but to look on the bright side, at least this war on iran will cause the
postponement, hopefully forever, of these ridiculous brooklyn and london shows.

...very sad, where`re dates ????

Perfect title Grrrrrrr

...very sad, where`re dates ????

My source said mid september last week and that seems to be right.

If ticket prices are that extreme, this will be the first tour I miss since 1972.....very sad but I won't be taken for that much cash! I know, wait & see. Just sayin...and I'm imagining that once scalpers get their hands o n the best seats, it will be over $1000.....

A new greatest hits album . . . .

That is so . . . . utterly . . . .. . . weak . .

so now, even the least revvyish amongst you must find it at least vaguely
interesting that right after I start posting about my "dark premonitions"
the Stones release a diddy called "doom and gloom".

Agreed?

Which NYC airport is closest to Barclays Center ?

LaGuardia is best then take the BQE (Brooklyn Queens Expressway) to Barclays.

Depends on where one is spending the night. For expense and convenience, JFK airport Airtrain to the A Train (just like the song). Switch to the local C at Nostrand Avenue, then two stops to Fulton Street. Barclays is right there--though I don't know their policy on bags. Allow a conservative 40 minutes--but it's an inexpensive and reliable 40 minutes.

If staying only one night, I would use the Mariott in downtown Brooklyn. Likely to be cheaper than Manhattan and easy back to JFK. If staying Manhattan, then downtown/Financial District is an easy subway ride from Barclays and also back to JFK. If staying in uptown Manhattan, then perhaps LaGuardia is best--though the traffic can be unpredictable.

Disappointed to see no mention of unreleased tracks or even of rarities.

Alas, my hunch is that there'll be some on the bonus disc of the "super-deluxe" box. That'll probably hook me into buying a big package for a few nuggets.

Picks for the day: "Pretty Beat Up," "I Don't Know Why," "Always Suffering," and "The Storm"

Whoops--wrong thread. Um....GRRRRR.

'78 for me, but they haven't even announced shows yet, much less pricing structure.

While waiting for Small Tour Announcement - enjoy one of their early conserts

Not sure they will reach this level again.

Where does the Airtrain stop Van Wyck Expressway? Isn't the A train at Lefferts Blvd/Liberty Ave?

Well it's broken!

Who will stop them make the biggest fools of the world out of themselves?

could this cover be construed as racist? i know (i hope) its not intentional, but it brings to mind offensive caricatures of African-Americans from the early 1900's.

Easier than that. Just ride Airtrain out to last stop at Far Rockaway. Platform for A train is on the other side of the turnstiles and down the escalator. Literally impossible to mess up and will take you right to downtown Brooklyn--or on into Manhattan if you wish.

Sorry - wrong thread.
