Product Description

CD Description

Early Stones recordings don't get much better than this. Firmly established as celebrities, the band began to use the pandemonium they inspired as an artistic source. Nowhere is their initial reaction to fame and music business drama more apparent than in the humorous, mocking "The Under Assistant West Coast Promotion Man", in which the Stones effectively skewer the sleazier side of the record industry. Naturally, this will always be known as the album that features the original version of "Satisfaction", which would remain the band's signature tune throughout their career, but that's really just the tip of the iceberg.
Equally effective as a Jagger-Richards distillation of rock and R&B is "The Last Time", a tune easily the equal of Bobby Womack's "It's All Over Now", which the Stones handily covered on 12 X 5. Standing out from the crowd is the harpsichord-driven, English folk-inspired "Play With Fire", a menacing minor key song full of subtly expressed psychological violence. This tune, a marked change of pace for the band, hinted at the stylistic variety they would later explore.

5.0 out of 5 stars "A title for"....etc., 26 Oct 2003
By Docendo Discimus (Vita scholae) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Out of Our Heads [UK Version] (Audio CD)
Vastly different from its American counterpart (only half of the twelve tracks are the same), the UK version of "Out Of Our Heads" actually came out a few weeks later than the US LP, and it opens with the roaring, frenetic "She Said Yeah" rather than the soulful slowie "Mercy Mercy" (which follows it here).

The classic hit single "Satisfaction" was never an album track in the US, and neither was "The Last Time" or "Play With Fire". Instead, listeners get "Oh Baby (We Got a Good Thing Going)", "Heart of Stone" (which had already appeared in America on "The Rolling Stones Now!"), and "I'm Free" and "Talkin' 'Bout You", which would turn up in America on "December's Children".

To add to the confusion, the menacing Gerard Mankowitz black-and-white cover shot used here would turn up in America three months later, also on the December's Children LP. But there is certainly nothing wrong with the album; it's all good, solid, first-rate soul, rock & roll and R&B, with a certain developing sophistication on songs like "I'm Free", and some truly superb soul covers ("Mercy, Mercy", "That's How Strong My Love Is" and "Good Times").

4 1/2 stars. Highly recommended. And the serious fan has to have both versions, of course.

5.0 out of 5 stars who needs caffeine?!, 28 Feb 2004
By clio (Poland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Out of Our Heads [UK Version] (Audio CD)
I wake up dancing to this shining display of mastery + hormones - with roots like these, what *could* the Stones evolve into but the greatest rock & roll band ever? From the raucous kicker "She Said Yeah" to the freaky-before-its-time "I'm Free", here are 12 elucidations of why this music in the Stones' utterly intent hands shook the whole world for good.

3.0 out of 5 stars Stones Inject A Little Soul Into Their Rock 'n' Roll Sound, 6 April 2007
By Jervis - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
'Out Of Our Heads' is the final Stones album that was a mixture of covers and original material. In 1965 the Stones still considered themselves primarily a singles band so much of their attention was still being focused on those three of four single releases a year. That's not to say 'Out Of Our Heads' is not a good album - it does have much to offer but it's rather an uneven album in many ways particuarly when compared with the albums that followed.
Much like the Stones debut album 'The Rolling Stones' much of 'Out Of Our Heads' displays the rock 'n' roll vitality and occasional blues sound which had always been a striking feature of their early style. However, 'Out Of Our Heads' also displays a strong soul element which the Stones managed to incorporate very well into their rock 'n' roll grooves.
'She Said Yeah', the opening track really does reflect the Stones fidelity as hard edged purveyors of the rock 'n' roll sound. Its manic sound is a perfect early example of their raw energy. 'Mercy, Mercy' and 'Hitch Hike' also have that hard edged rock 'n' roll sound but there's also an element of soul, too. 'Good Times' has a softer soul sound. The Stones also include a more typical Chuck Berry cover 'Talkin' 'Bout You' which is perhaps not their most inspiring take on a Chuck Berry song and also 'Cry To Me' and 'Oh Baby (We Got A Good Thing Goin') which are good if not particuarly arresting.
Their own songs 'Gotta Get Away', 'Heart Of Stone' and 'I'm Free' continue the soul theme and if these songs aren't quite Stones classics they do display a degree of promise for things to come. The Stones other original 'The Under Assistant West Coast Promotion Man' is an effective blues influenced song. The highlight of the album though is another Stones cover - 'That's How Strong My Love Is' in which Mick gives a fabulously effective vocal to this fine soul song. I'd say it's this performance more than anything else on this album which shows how genuinely convincing the Stones can be even when attempting to emulate the rugged black soul sounds of the day.
Overall 'Out Of Our Heads' isn't exactly an essential Stones album as they would go on to bigger and better things - yet it is a nice addition to any collection. It's a little uneven in places yet there's an authentic raw spontaneity which shines through most of the time which, with a little refinement, ultimately points the way to their classic sound on albums like 'Exile On Main Street'.
