It's the rare greatest-hits album that takes on a life of its own. Generally, best-of collections are superceded by updated retrospectives. Hot Rocks is one of the rare exceptions to the rule. Originally released in 1972, it instantly became the Stones intro of choice, elbowing aside Big Hits, High Tide and Green Grass and Through the Past Darkly. Why? It happened to hit the racks when Mick and company were at their creative peak. The 21 tracks found here represent seven years of dizzying growth. From "Time is on My Side" through "Satisfaction" and "Let's Spend the Night Together," on to Sticky Fingers's "Brown Sugar" and "Wild Horses," Hot Rocks never lets up. The likes of Sucking in the '70s and Jump Back come and go, but this Stones overview will not be moved. --Steven Stolder

Good sound quality. Some songs not 'Hot', but the Rolling Stones just the same. Most enjoyable!
 SACD vs. DSD REMASTER January 4, 2010

Five stars for the content, cuz it's the Stones, and I don't wish to anger whatever gods are backing them up. But be careful, because I typed in "hot rocks sacd" in searching for this item, and this dsd remaster is what comes up. Here's the thing: the sacd hybrid IS a dsd remaster, and hybrid means it has two layers, one the sacd dsd remaster, the other a regular cd dsd remaster that can play on any ol' cd playing device, but not with as much definition and clarity as the sacd layer, of course. I ordered one used, and the correct hybrid item showed up, but unfortunately, three tracks from the first disc wouldn't play. One of these tracks was 'Satisfaction'. I mean...how are you supposed to impress the chicks with a Stones disc that won't play 'Satisfaction'? You clearly can see my dilemna, so I had to return it, and I figured I would re-order it new this time, but then this dsd-only version shows up, which I didn't know even existed, and which I ordered from the same item description that previously delivered to me the faulty sacd hybrid that I had to return. I then tried contacting several of the vendors selling the set to determine which version they were peddling so I could re-order once more, but the only responses I got back were that they were all WAY too busy to go get a look at the disc and report back. This, of course, is a lie. I work in a company that has several vast warehouses, and there is no such thing in our book as being too busy to make sure the customer is getting what they are ordering. These vendors are just too lazy, and you simply can't tell me otherwise without expecting laughter in your face. By me. To sum up, Amazon doesn't know to discriminate between one version and the other, so if you're some crazy sacd player-owning fool like me, you're risking grief and heartbreak and sadness if you seek to order from them. I've looked at Amazon UK, and they seem to have it together with seperate descriptions that specify the sacd version, but I'm naturally hesitant to purchase from them, because they're still hot over us splitting off from the Empire and starting our own gig over here a few hundred years back. Remember, the low rating is for the lousy product identification - if you don't have a sacd player and just want to hear a great Stones collection of the hits, then mama mia! Look no further, weary traveller. This one will most definitely fix yer jones. But if you're looking for the gnarly hi-fi premium huckleberry, then abandon all hope ye who enter here. Good luck to us all.

"Hot Rocks" was certainly a popular album in its day, but on reflection, it is woefully incomplete. There are only 3 songs here that pre-date "Satisfaction", creating a poor overview of their early period. The set then rushes through the rest of the band's catalog up to and ending with the "Sticky Fingers" album and the two hits from it. This is an OK collection for the more casual fan who wants most of the major hits, but the followup set "More Hot Rocks" is far more interesting overall, scooping up the hits that this set missed plus giving the more involved Stones fan a good number of rarities. "Hot Rocks" seemed to have been put together hastily, but great tracks are in abundance, no question about that. There just doesn't seem enough of them.

A classic. Not much else needs to be said. Anyone that wants to learn about the Rolling Stones, THIS is the album.
