Rolling Stones - Hackney Diamonds (Czech Republic) – 2023...

One of the most distinctive vinyl editions of Hackney Diamonds, this 2023 Czech Republic pressing was issued with exclusive alternate artwork, giving it a completely different presentation from the standard black-vinyl release. Issued by Polydor / Rolling Stones Records under catalogue number 554 645-9, this edition was pressed on 180-gram blue vinyl and represents a special coloured-vinyl variant. Hackney Diamonds marked a major milestone in The Rolling Stones catalogue: their first studio album of newly written material since A Bigger Bang in 2005. Produced primarily by Andrew Watt, the album combines the core Stones lineup with an extraordinary supporting cast that includes Paul McCartney, Elton John, Lady Gaga and Stevie Wonder. The posthumous appearances of Charlie Watts on Mess It Up and Live By The Sword, alongside Bill Wyman's return for Live By The Sword, lend the project additional poignancy and historical weight. The tracklist encompasses "Angry," "Get Close," "Bite My Head Off," "Whole Wide World," "Mess It Up," "Tell Me Straight," "Sweet Sounds Of Heaven" and the closing blues performance "Rolling Stone Blues." The striking blue vinyl and alternate cover artwork make this version especially appealing as a physical collector's edition. ⸻ Sleeve (NM): The alternate-artwork gatefold sleeve remains in outstanding Near Mint condition, still protected by its original shrink wrap. The artwork is exceptionally sharp and clean, with virtually no distracting storage wear. Inner Sleeve (included): Original printed inner sleeve is present and complete. Vinyl (NM): The striking blue vinyl is in superb Near Mint condition, retaining a beautiful deep gloss with extremely little evidence of previous play or handling. ⸻ Details * Czech Republic pressing * Polydor / Rolling Stones Records 554 645-9 * 2023 * 180g blue vinyl * Alternate cover artwork * Gatefold sleeve * Limited edition, store-exclusive release * Original printed inner sleeve included * Still preserved in original shrink wrap * Barcode 602455464590 * Manufactured in Czech Republic
