Description

Stones sign their classic Sticky Fingers

Sticky Fingers album signed on the front cover in blue felt tip by Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Bill Wyman and in blue ink by Mick Taylor. Some scattered edge wear, light contrast to portion of Watts’s signature and a few surface creases, otherwise fine condition. The record is included. At a party in New York in 1969, Andy Warhol casually mentioned to Mick Jagger that it would be amusing to have a real zipper on an album cover. A year later, Jagger proposed the idea for Sticky Fingers, the first release on the new Rolling Stones label. The packaging of Sticky Fingers proved the Rolling Stones had not lost their gift for outrageousness and, as their first post-Altamont studio album, very shrewdly moved the Stones away from what Braun calls ‘the evil thing’ and into a more sexual mode. Sticky Fingers also debuted the famous Stones logo: a caricature of Jagger’s lips and tongue. LOA Roger Epperson/PSA/DNA and R&R COA.
