The year of 1967 was a period of experimentation in rock music. This album, if nothing less, can prove how a strongly blues rock influenced band can do an album with no blues at all in it and doing it with such strongly crafted songs such as “2000 Light Years From Home”, “2000 Man” “In Another Land” or “She’s A Rainbow”. Some say the Stones failed their psychedelic experiment, while “Sgt Peppers” went on to became the Nº 1 album on literally every list that mentions the year 1967 or the 60′ decade, “ Majesties” is sometimes not even mentioned and it is considered still to this day to a lot of people one of Stone’s weaker albums, however I feel they won it. Peppers” had The Rolling Stones referenced on their cover art, and The Stones had The Pepper’s Beatles heads on theirs (you need to look for them harder though). Both bands swung together in healthy competition for the best album of the year during the late 60’s. “Their Satanic Majesties Request” was released on the 8 th of December 1967, in time for a “cosmic Christmas” (the initial working title of the album) the same year that saw multiple releases of psychedelic rock albums, and the Stones were no exception to the trend, deciding to go on with their own Psychedelic masterpiece, maybe also strongly influenced to keep up the continuous challenge to The Beatles who had released earlier their own Psychedelic adventure “Sgt. “An anomaly in The Rolling Stones” discography someone once said, but for many people it’s one of their top 10 favorite Stones albums of all time.
