I've fell in love with US version years ago and though to myself..."It's got "Paint It Black" on it, why give the UK version a try?".....

Then I finally listened to the Uk version and what a damn good album! If I had it my way, with the UK version as the basis: replace "Flight 505" (love the song but...) with "Paint It Black" and release that version as the only/main version...perfection imo.

What is everyone else's thoughts on the album?

It's the first real Stones album with only Mick & Keith compositions on it and some very fine ones at that. Really confusing that their early albums were released in different versions in different countries. A local record shop has a copy, I wanted to check one of these days if they still have it, thanks for reminding me. f
