Additional Information

The Rolling Stones are a British rock band that began performing in 1962. They are estimated to have sold over 250 million records over the years. The band was inducted into both the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the UK Music Hall of Fame; and has been ranked number four and number ten of artists worldwide by Rolling Stone magazine and Billboard magazine, respectively.

Released on June 9, 1978, Some Girls is the 14th studio album by the Rolling Stones and is the single best-selling Rolling Stones record. The original album art featured a parody of a vintage wig advertisement, depicting the band members in drag as well as many iconic celebrities such as Farrah Fawcett and Lucille Ball. The band, however, did not obtain permission from the women and/or their estates and thus the original album pressings became collectors’ items as the band was legally prevented from printing more albums with the original art.
