Rolling Stones : Tattoo You (Super Deluxe Edition)


DON'T NEED A WHORE,

I DON'T NEED NO BOOZE

DON'T NEED A VIRGIN PRIEST

BUT I NEED SOMEONE

I CAN CRY TO

I NEED SOMEONE

TO PROTECT

 Tattoo You

 is the sixteenth U.K

 and

 eighteenth U.S.

 studio album 

by the 

English Rock band

 The Rolling Stones

 released on

 August,24th1981

 by 

Rolling Stones Records

The album is mostly

 composed of

 studio outtakes

 recorded during

 the 1970s, 

and contains one

 of the band's

 most well-known songs,

 "Start Me Up",

 which hit 

number two 

on the 

US Billboard

singles charts.

A combination of

 touring obligations

 and personal feuding

 between band members

 made it difficult

 to arrange 

dedicated

 recording sessions 

for the band's

 follow-up to 1980's

 Emotional Rescue

As a result, the

band's production team 

combed through 

unused recordings

 from prior sessions, 

some dating back

 almost a decade.

 While a few of the songs 

were used essentially

 as-is in their original form,

 most of these earlier recordings 

were not complete, 

consisting of song fragments 

requiring much work. 

Studio time 

was booked 

throughout 

1980 and 1981 

and band members 

came in when available

 to finish off the tracks.

The credited members 

of the Rolling Stones

 for the album were 

vocalist 

Mick Jagger,

 guitarists

 Keith Richards 

and

 Ronnie Wood, 

bassist 

Bill Wyman 

and 

drummer 

Charlie Watts 

while older tracks

 feature former

 Stones guitarist 

Mick Taylor

 ("Tops"), 

keyboardists 

Nicky Hopkins

 and 

Billy Preston, 

Black and Blue session 

guitarist 

Wayne Perkins

 ("Worried About You") 

and 

founding member

 Ian Stewart.

The album proved 

to be both a

 critical and

 commercial success

 upon release,

 reaching the top

 of the 

US Billboard 200.

 To date, 

it is the final

 Rolling Stones album

 to reach the

 top position of 

the US charts,

 concluding the band's 

string of eight 

consecutive 

number-one 

albums there, 

dating back to 

1971's

 Sticky Fingers.

In 1989,

 it was ranked No. 34 

on 

Rolling Stone magazine's

 list of the 

100 greatest albums

 of the 1980s.

 In 2003, 

the album was ranked

 number 211

 on

 Rolling Stone's list 

of the 

500 Greatest Albums

 of All Time, 

then re-ranked number

 213

 in the 

2012 revised list. 

Peter Corriston, 

who was responsible

 for the album 

cover's concept origination,

 art direction

 and design, 

won a

 Grammy Award

 in the category of 

Best Album Package.

Background

Tattoo You 

is an album primarily 

composed of outtakes

 from previous recording sessions,

 some dating back a decade, 

with new vocals 

and overdubs. 

The Rolling Stones 

put together this collection

 to have a new album

 to promote

 for their worldwide 

American Tour 1981/European Tour 1982 

beginning that 

September.
