The Rolling Stones Celebrate Record Store Day 2025 with a reissue of the Out of Our Heads album
A Classic Returns: The Rolling Stones Reignite ‘Out of Our Heads’
This spring, The Rolling Stones are making waves not with a brand-new hit, but by revisiting a cornerstone of their early years. As part of Record Store Day 2025, the band is reissuing Out of Our Heads—an album that marked a pivotal moment in shaping their legacy. This fresh pressing breathes new life into the classic release, offering fans a nostalgic yet timely tribute to the group’s formative sound.
What makes this reissue even more special is its exclusivity. Only 6,500 copies will be available (on 180g clear vinyl with a lithograph print; The reissue has been mastered directly from the original first-generation analog mono album master tape by Carl Rowatti at Trutone Mastering using an all-analog chain from a Studer A80 tape machine to a Neumann SP-77 soundboard to a Neumann VMS-70 cutting lathe) —a modest quantity for most artists, but a rare treasure when it comes to a band as legendary and enduring as the Rolling Stones. Get ready for this collector’s gem to stir the charts once more.
Out of Our Heads: The Stones’ Breakthrough in Sound and Stardom
Before they were rock royalty, The Rolling Stones were a hungry young band finding their voice—and Out of Our Heads was the album where that voice truly began to roar. Released in 1965, the record arrived in two distinct forms: it became the group’s third official release in the U.K., where it reached No. 2, and their first No. 1 album in the U.S., solidifying their transatlantic appeal.
More than just a commercial success, Out of Our Heads signaled a crucial creative leap. While still rooted in their love for blues and R&B covers, the album saw Mick Jagger and Keith Richards emerging as a formidable songwriting duo. This shift from interpreters to originators marked a defining moment—not just for the band, but for rock music at large. It was the start of a new era, where the Stones began to shape their own legend. (Ref. Rolling Stones Record Store Day)
