The Rolling Stones’ Tattoo You Super Deluxe Edition goes under the spotlight in the second of my six Rolling Stones box-set unboxing videos.
I take you inside the lenticular slipcase and look at the remastered original album, the nine-track Lost & Found: Rarities collection, the complete 26-track Still Life: Wembley Stadium 1982 concert, the special picture disc and the lavish 124-page coffee-table book.
I also explain why “Start Me Up” originally drew me towards the album, why I didn’t fully connect with Tattoo You in 1981 and how this box set has helped me appreciate its importance all these years later.
Is the Super Deluxe Edition worth owning—or will the more affordable 2CD edition give you everything you need?
Please share your thoughts in the comments. Where does Tattoo You rank among your favourite Rolling Stones albums?
