It is the band 's first album of the 1970s and its first release on the band 's newly formed label , Rolling Stones Records , after having been contracted since 1963 with Decca Records in the UK and London Records in the US . It is also Mick Taylor 's first full - length appearance on a Rolling Stones album , the first Rolling Stones album not to feature any contributions from guitarist and founder Brian Jones and the first one on which singer Mick Jagger is credited with playing guitar . Sticky Fingers is widely regarded as one of the Rolling Stones ' best albums . It achieved triple platinum certification in the US and contains songs such as the chart - topping `` Brown Sugar '' , the country ballad `` Dead Flowers '' , `` Wild Horses '' , `` Ca n't You Hear Me Knocking '' , and `` Moonlight Mile '' .

However , their departing manager Allen Klein dealt the group a major blow when they discovered that they had inadvertently signed over their entire 1960s copyrights to Klein and his company ABKCO , which is how all of their material from 1963 's `` Come On '' to Get Yer Ya - Ya 's Out ! The Rolling Stones in Concert has since been released solely by ABKCO Records . The band would remain incensed with Klein for decades for that act . When Decca informed The Rolling Stones that they were owed one more single , they cheekily submitted a track called `` Cocksucker Blues '' , which was guaranteed to be refused . Instead , Decca released the two - year - old Beggars Banquet track `` Street Fighting Man '' while Klein retained dual copyright ownership in conjunction with The Rolling Stones of `` Brown Sugar '' and `` Wild Horses '' . Recording ( edit ) Although sessions for Sticky Fingers began in earnest in March 1970 , The Rolling Stones had been recording at Muscle Shoals Sound Studio in Alabama in December 1969 . `` Sister Morphine '' , cut during Let It Bleed 's sessions earlier in March of that year , had been held over from this release . Much of the recording for Sticky Fingers was made with The Rolling Stones ' mobile studio unit in Stargroves during the summer and autumn of 1970 . Early versions of songs that would eventually appear on Exile on Main St. were also rehearsed during these sessions . Artwork ( edit ) Standard version ( edit ) The Rolling Stones posing in an ad with covers of Sticky Fingers , with the original artwork , in 1971 , from left to right : Charlie Watts , Mick Taylor , Bill Wyman , Keith Richards , and Mick Jagger The album 's artwork emphasises the suggestive innuendo of the Sticky Fingers title , showing a close - up of a jeans - clad male crotch with the visible outline of a large penis ; the cover of the original ( vinyl LP ) release featured a working zipper and perforations around the belt buckle that opened to reveal a sub-cover image of cotton briefs . The vinyl release displayed the band 's name and album title along the image of the belt ; behind the zipper the white briefs were seemingly rubber stamped in gold with the stylized name of American pop artist Andy Warhol , below which read `` THIS PHOTOGRAPH MAY NOT BE -- ETC . '' While the artwork was conceived by Warhol , photography was by Billy Name and design was by Craig Braun . Braun and his team had other ideas , such as wrapping the album in rolling paper - a concept later used by Cheech & Chong in Big Bambu - but Jagger was enthused by Warhol 's cover with a zipper . Execution was then handled as Warhol sent Braun Polaroid pictures of a model in tight jeans . The cover photo of a male model 's crotch clad in tight blue jeans was assumed by many fans to be an image of Mick Jagger , but the people actually involved at the time of the photo shoot claim that Warhol had several different men photographed ( Jagger was not among them ) and never revealed which shots he used . Among the candidates , Jed Johnson , Warhol 's lover at the time , denied it was his likeness , although his twin brother Jay is a possibility . Those closest to the shoot , and subsequent design , name Factory artist and designer Corey Tippin as the likeliest candidate . Warhol `` superstar '' Joe Dallesandro claims to have been the model . After retailers complained that the zipper was causing damage to the vinyl ( from stacked shipments of the record ) , the zipper was `` unzipped '' slightly to the middle of the record , where damage would be minimised . The Rolling Stones ' logo , designed by John Pasche and modified by Craig Braun , was introduced in 1971 . For the initial vinyl release the album title and band name is smaller and at the top on the American release . The UK release the title and band name are in bigger letters and on the left . The album features the first usage of the `` tongue & lips '' logo of Rolling Stones Records , originally designed by John Pasche in 1970 . Jagger suggested to Pasche that he copy the outstuck tongue of the Hindu goddess Kali , and while Pasche first felt it would date the image back to the Indian culture craze of the 1960s , seeing Kali made him change his mind . Before the end of that year his basic version was faxed to Craig Braun by Marshall Chess . The black & white copy was then modified by Braun and his team , resulting in today 's most popular red version , the slim one with the two white stripes on the tongue . Critic Sean Egan has said of the logo , `` Without using the Stones ' name , it instantly conjures them , or at least Jagger , as well as a certain lasciviousness that is the Stones ' own ... It quickly and deservedly became the most famous logo in the history of popular music . '' The tongue and lips design was part of a package that , in 2003 , VH1 named the `` No. 1 Greatest Album Cover '' of all time . Alternative version and covers ( edit ) In Spain , the original cover was censored by the Franco regime and replaced with a `` Can of fingers '' cover , designed by John Pasche and Phil Jude , and `` Sister Morphine '' was replaced by a live version of Chuck Berry 's `` Let It Rock '' . This version was released on the compilation album Rarities 1971 -- 2003 in 2005 . In 1992 , the LP release of the album in Russia featured a similar treatment as the original cover ; but with Cyrillic lettering for the band name and album name , a colourised photograph of blue jeans with a zipper , and a Soviet Army uniform belt buckle that shows a hammer and sickle inscribed in a star . The model appears to be female . Release and reception ( edit ) <Th_colspan="2"> Professional ratings <Th_colspan="2"> Retrospective reviews <Th_colspan="2"> Review scores Source Rating AllMusic Christgau 's Record Guide Encyclopedia of Popular Music MusicHound Rock 4.5 / 5 NME 9 / 10 Pitchfork 10 / 10 Q Record Collector The Rolling Stone Album Guide Uncut Sticky Fingers hit the number one spot on the British charts in May 1971 , remaining there for four weeks before returning at number one for a further week in mid June . In the US , the album hit number one within days of release , and stayed there for four weeks . In Germany it was one of only two non-German albums to reach number one in 1971 . In a contemporary review for the Los Angeles Times , music critic Robert Hilburn said that although Sticky Fingers is one of the best rock albums of the year , it is only `` modest '' by the Rolling Stones ' standards and succeeds on the strength of songs such as `` Bitch '' and `` Dead Flowers '' , which recall the band 's previously uninhibited , furious style . Jon Landau , writing in Rolling Stone , felt that it lacks the spirit and spontaneity of the Rolling Stones ' previous two albums and , apart from `` Moonlight Mile '' , is full of `` forced attempts at style and control '' in which the band sounds disinterested , particularly on formally correct songs such as `` Brown Sugar '' . In a positive review , Lynn Van Matre of the Chicago Tribune viewed the album as the band `` at their raunchy best '' and wrote that , although it is `` hardly innovative '' , it is consistent enough to be one of the year 's best albums . Sticky Fingers was voted the second best album of the year in The Village Voice 's annual Pazz & Jop critics poll for 1971 . Lester Bangs voted it number one in the poll and said that it was his most played album of the year . Robert Christgau , the poll 's creator , ranked the album 17th on his own year - end list . In a 1975 article for The Village Voice , Christgau suggested that the release was `` triffling with decadence '' , but might be the Rolling Stones ' best album , approached only by Exile on Main St. ( 1972 ) . In his 1980 review of the album , he wrote that it reflected how unapologetic the band was after the Altamont Free Concert and that , despite the concession to sincerity with `` Wild Horses '' , songs such as `` Ca n't You Hear Me Knocking '' and `` I Got the Blues '' are as `` soulful '' as `` Good Times '' , and their cover of `` You Gotta Move '' is on - par with their previous covers of `` Prodigal Son '' and `` Love in Vain '' . In 1994 , Sticky Fingers was ranked number ten in Colin Larkin 's All Time Top 1000 Albums . He stated , `` Dirty rock like this has still to be bettered , and there is still no rival in sight . '' In a retrospective review , Q magazine said that the album was `` the Stones at their assured , showboating peak ... A magic formula of heavy soul , junkie blues and macho rock '' . NME wrote that it `` captures the Stones bluesy swagger '' in a `` dark - land where few dare to tread '' . Record Collector magazine said that it showcases Jagger and Richards as they `` delve even further back to the primitive blues that first inspired them and step up their investigations into another great American form , country . '' In his review for Goldmine magazine , Dave Thompson wrote that the album still is superior to `` most of The Rolling Stones ' catalog '' . In 2003 , Sticky Fingers was listed as No. 63 on Rolling Stone magazine 's list of The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time . In 1994 , Sticky Fingers was remastered and reissued by Virgin Records . This remaster was initially released in a Collector 's Edition CD , which replicated in miniature many elements of the original vinyl album packaging , including the zipper . Sticky Fingers was remastered again in 2009 by Universal Music Enterprises and in 2011 by Universal Music Enterprises in a Japanese - only SHM - SACD version . In June 2015 , the Rolling Stones reissued Sticky Fingers ( in its 2009 remastering ) in a variety of formats to coincide with a new concert tour , the Zip Code Tour . The Deluxe and Super Deluxe versions of the reissue featured previously unreleased bonus material ( depending on the format ) : alternative takes of some songs , live tracks recorded on 14 March 1971 at the Roundhouse , London , and the complete 13 March 1971 show at Leeds University . It re-entered the UK Albums chart at # 7 , extending their UK Top 10 album chart span beyond 51 years and 2 months since their self - titled debuted at # 7 on April 23 , 1964 . It also re-entered the US Albums chart at # 5 , extending their US Top 10 album chart span beyond 50 years and 6 months since 12 x 5 on December 14 , 1964 .
