The Rolling Stones ‎- Studio Albums Vinyl Collection 1971-2016 (2018) [20LP Box Set, Remastered]

Universal's 2018 set The Studio Albums Vinyl Collection 1971-2016 isn't the first time the Rolling Stones] post-Decca catalog has been boxed up. Back in 2010, all the albums up to 2015 (which means it didn't include 2016's blues record Blue & Lonesome) were offered in a set that was a companion to the similarly limited-edition box The Rolling Stones 1964-1969. In a sense, the 2018 set functions as a cousin to ABKCO's The Rolling Stones in Mono – a 2016 box containing mono mixes of all the material the Stones officially released on Decca – but where that set was issued on both CD and LP, The Studio Albums Vinyl Collection 1971-2016 is, as its title suggests, explicitly designed as a vinyl package. All of the albums between Sticky Fingers and Blue & Lonesome have been newly mastered to vinyl from digital sources, cut at half-speed at Abbey Road and then housed in sleeves that replicate the original packaging. The pressings are quiet and clean, allowing the source material to sound as vivid or as muddy as the original tapes (the surprise is, Exile on Main St. isn't as murky as its reputation suggests). It's an expensive set, but it's a convenient way to get excellent pressings of the Stones' catalog.
