Rolling Stones-Let It Bleed-1969 Classic Rock First UK Pressing w/Poster VG+/E Let It Bleed is the eighth studio album by the English rock band the Rolling Stones, released on 28 November 1969 by London Records in the United States and on 5 December 1969 by Decca Records in the United Kingdom. Released during the band's 1969 American Tour, it is the follow-up to Beggars Banquet (1968), and, like that album, is a return to the group's more blues-oriented approach that was prominent in the pre-Aftermath (1966) period of their career. Released in December, Let It Bleed reached number 1 on the UK Albums Chart (temporarily demoting the Beatles' Abbey Road) and number 3 on the Billboard Top LPs chart in the US, where it was eventually certified 2× platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). In a retrospective review, NME magazine said that the album "tugs and teases" in various musical directions and called it "a classic". In his 2001 Stones biography, Stephen Davis said of the album "No rock record, before or since, has ever so completely captured the sense of palpable dread that hung over its era." In a five-star review for Rolling Stone in 2004, Gavin Edwards praised Richards' guitar playing throughout the album, and stated: "Whether it was spiritual, menstrual or visceral, the Stones made sure you went home covered in blood." Jason McNeil of PopMatters wrote that Beggars Banquet and Let It Bleed are "the two greatest albums the band's (or anyone's) ever made". In Steven Van Zandt's opinion, Let It Bleed was one in the Stones' series of four studio LPs—including Beggars Banquet (1968), Sticky Fingers (1971) and Exile on Main St. (1972)—that was "the greatest run of albums in history". Please note album does have quite a bit of paper scuffing.
The Rolling Stones are an English rock band formed in London in 1962. Active for over six decades, they are one of the most popular, influential, and enduring bands of the rock era. In the early 1960s, the band pioneered the gritty, rhythmically driven sound that came to define hard rock. Their first stable line-up consisted of vocalist Mick Jagger, guitarist Keith Richards, multi-instrumentalist Brian Jones, bassist Bill Wyman, and drummer Charlie Watts, after pianist Ian Stewart was side-lined by their manager Andrew Loog Oldham. During their early years, Jones was the primary leader. Oldham encouraged them to write their own songs. The Jagger–Richards partnership soon became the band's primary songwriting and creative force.

Records have been hand cleaned as found through the Library of Congress Archival website found at https://www.loc.gov/preservation/care/record.html However, they are primarily cleaned to provide accurate grading. It is recommended that all records, even sealed records, be given a thorough cleaning prior to play.
Please note that all records are conscientiously graded. Every effort is taken to grade accurately, and additional pictures are provided as necessary to prevent any undue surprises. Should you feel that you haven't received the value you paid for, returns will be gladly accepted. Sealed records must be returned in original sealed condition.
Goldmine standards are used on all records as follows:
Mint (M)-A perfect record in every way. This grading will never be used even on a sealed album. Near Mint (NM or M-) - A nearly perfect record including labels. Shiny vinyl with no visible defects. Labels have no writing or stickers nor are any spindle marks visible. Covers have no creases, ring wear, or splits of any kind. *Near Mint Minus (NM-) is used to indicate a nearly perfect record with nice shiny vinyl that may have one or two very fine hairline scratches and/or some very minor scuffs that would not affect play. Very Good+ or Excellent (VG+ or E) - VG+ records will show signs of wear including light scuffs or fine scratches, and the label may have spindle marks. Covers may show some creasing and minor ring wear and cut-outs or punch-holes. Splits less than 1 inch long may also be present. Writing and/or stickers may also be present. *Excellent (E) is used to indicate a record better than very good plus. An excellent record will have nice gloss and very few fine scratches and/or light paper scuffs. The cover will have no splits and no major creases. Very Good (VG) - May have scratches feelable with a fingernail. Most of the original gloss will be gone or it may be evident that the record has been played extensively. The cover will have ring wear and may have significant splitting of the seams. *These gradings have been added to further evaluate records according to condition.
