Singles Collection: The London Years is a compilation album of Rolling Stones music released by former manager Allen Klein’s ABKCO Records (who usurped control of the band’s Decca/London material in 1970) after the band’s departure from Decca and Klein. Released in 1989, Singles Collection: The London Years is a triple album of every Rolling Stones single – and their B-Sides – mostly in their original mono mixes (at least as of the 2002 reissue), in both the UK and US encompassing their entire era with Decca Records in England and London Records in America – hence the album’s title. The only omissions are “Natural Magic” (a Ry Cooder instrumental, released as the B-side to “Memo From Turner”), and “Let It Rock” (released in the UK on the “Brown Sugar”/”Wild Horses” single). With a range from 1963 to 1971, the set begins with their very first UK single, Chuck Berry’s “Come On”, and runs to Sticky Fingers’ “Brown Sugar” and “Wild Horses” (which Allen Klein shares release rights with The Rolling Stones). The set was released at a timely juncture, just a couple of weeks before The Rolling Stones’ comeback album Steel Wheels was due for release after a significant break, and months following their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Going platinum, the album reached #91 in the US. In August 2002, Singles Collection: The London Years was issued in a new remastered CD and SACD digipak by ABKCO Records.
Wikipedia The three-disc box set Singles Collection: The London Years contains every single the Rolling Stones released during the ’60s, including both the A- and B-sides. It is the first Stones compilation that tries to be comprehensive and logical — for all their attributes, the two Hot Rocks sets and the two Big Hits collections didn’t present the singles in chronological order. In essence, the previous compilations were excellent samplers, where Singles Collection tells most of the story (certain albums, like Aftermath, Beggars Banquet, and Let It Bleed, fill in the gaps left by the singles). The Rolling Stones made genuine albums — even their early R&B/blues albums were impeccably paced — but their singles had a power all their own, which is quite clearly illustrated by the Singles Collection. By presenting the singles in chronological order, the set takes on a relentless, exhilarating pace with each hit and neglected B-side piling on top of each other, adding a new dimension to the group; it has a power it wouldn’t have had if it tried to sample from the albums. Although it cheats near the end, adding singles from the Metamorphosis outtakes collection and two singles from Sticky Fingers, this captures the essence of the ’60s Stones as well as any compilation could.
Casual fans might want to stick with the Hot Rocks sets, since they just have the hits, but for those that want a little bit more, the Singles Collection is absolutely essential.

Everyone knows that Mick Taylor, who usually played lead guitar against Keith's rhythm parts from 1969 til the end of 1974, was and is a great Blues and Rock guitar player, and added power and authenticity to the Stones' sound. He is heard here on a few (great) songs, notably 'Honky Tonk Women'. His predecessor, Keith Richard's original guitar foil, reportedly the first man in England to play slide guitar, and the founder of The Rolling Stones, was the late, great Brian Jones. He was part of the band from their inception through his leaving the Stones sometime in 1969- shortly after which he departed this world. In addition to playing exciting guitar, Brian experimented with various musical instruments, both odd and common, and used them to add that extra little bit of flavor to many key Stones tracks- flavor which elevated those songs and made them special.
For example, 'Lady Jane'. His efforts contributed great charm and energy to the band. When I think about classic Stones, this is the lineup that comes to mind: Brian Jones, Mick Jagger, Keith Richard, Bill Wyman, and Charlie Watts. This is the lineup you will hear on this CD, and it is a great one.
