Hi all,

While going through a pile of discs, I found this little box with 3 CDs (still shrink wrapped, although the wrap, not the box, has a hole on the front side).
On one side, I can see the 3 CDs and they have the following mention:
BRS 84270, BRS 84271 and BRS 84272.
There's no other indication of who made this.
The CDs have the following titles: "The Rolling Stones", "More Rolling Stones" and "Rolling Stones Get Off Of My Cloud".

I would appreciate it if someone could tell me a little more about this box, or where I can find some info.

Here are scans of the box. Click on the thumbnail for a larger image.

Thanks in advance!

Thank you!!!
So it IS from a bootleg label, nothing official.
It seems that this label only made a few (Stones) bootlegs (or is dbboots missing some?)

There also is Clasic Vinyl Bootleg Series nr 44 by this label.

Those bootlegers must be magicians.

Excellent Stereo Studio recordings. Official Released Tracks in Stereo, except track 15 in Mono.
In what universe Route 66 (1964-01-03: Regent Sound Studios, London, UK, Studio Session), Under The Boardwalk, Off The Hook and You Better Move On were issued in stereo?
I believe they just copy and paste (maybe with some EQ modifications) versions of the official tracks either from old London (West German/Japanese) editions or early ABKCO remaster from 1986. In any case I would not expect anything very interesting.

So there's another one.
Something else; looking at e-bay, it seems people are selling the CDs apart, not as a box.

BRS stands for Beatles Rolling Stones,
around 20 releases 1989/1990.

brs-releases

Back then those releases were legal and were sold in stores like Media-Markt, Saturn and even drugstores in Germany and Austria. In 1990 copyright ended 25 years after the first release of a song. But this was kind of a twilight zone (like Swingin' Pig) and later the copyright act was changed. Now it's 50 years with a few additional specifications.

So I wouldn't call them bootlegs.

I have this one which is also available from the label BRS

The Rolling Stones - The Rolling Stones
Label: BRS - ?BRS84260
Format: CD, Compilation, Unofficial Release
Year: 1989
