Like the original box, the new Rolling Stones in Mono presents the original mono albums released on both sides of the Atlantic between 1964 and 1969. The set offers the Stones' self-titled U.K. debut from 1964 (retitled and slightly tweaked for U.S. release as England's Newest Hit Makers); their second American album, 12 X 5, from the same year; and their second and third LPs from England ( No. 2) and America ( The Rolling Stones, Now!) in 1965. From there, the box features both U.K. and U.S. versions of Out of Our Heads (1965) and Aftermath (1966), the 1966 U.S. album December's Children (and Everybody's); British ( Between the Buttons) and American ( Flowers) albums from 1967; and finally, their first three internationally uniform albums, Their Satanic Majesties Request (1967), Beggars Banquet (1968) and Let It Bleed (1969), the mono versions of which had long been out-of-print. The American Beatles release story is more complex, with Vee-Jay handling the first record called Introducing The Beatles (plus singles on Tollie and Swan) and then Capitol taking over starting with Meet The Beatles and eventually gaining control of the Vee-Jay material, which it later released as The Early Beatles.

Even if a second generation tape has been used (and most of the sources in this box were first) then the second generation tape was an original source tape.” Halpin, Michael (3 October 2016).
