The Rolling Stones: The Rolling Stones No. 2
Norman Jopling, Record Mirror, 9 January 1965
"WE THINK IT'S a lot better than our first one... there's a more varied selection of songs... no instrumentals... we cut it at three different studios... all about three thousand miles apart... the cover picture is good, don't you think... everyone wanted us to bring this out before Christmas... but it would have got lost in the rush... now it will stand out, as there's nothing else being released at this time... only two tracks from our second American LP are on this one... this is better than the American LP..."
