The Rolling Stones' groundbreaking multi-platinum selling album Let It Bleed was released in late 1969, charting at No. 1 in the U.K. and No. 3 in the U.S.. The Rolling Stones, at this point already a critically and commercially dominant force, composed and recorded their eighth long player (tenth for the U.S.) amidst both geopolitical and personal turmoil. The second of four Rolling Stones albums made with producer Jimmy Miller (Traffic, Blind Faith), Let It Bleed perfectly captures the ominous spirit of the times with "Gimme Shelter," the opening track. The 2019 remaster has been engineered by eleven-time Grammy-winning mastering engineer Bob Ludwig.
"No other rock & roll album of the late Sixties so embodied… the contradictions, turbulence of its time, creation and the band… than Let It Bleed," David Fricke reflects in the 50th Anniversary Limited Deluxe Edition.
