AND WE’RE GIVING AWAY INVITES
Published July 17, 2023

The Rolling Stones, the legendary rock band known for their timeless hits and electrifying performances, are set to digitally release their iconic album, Forty Licks. To celebrate, there will be an invite-only Listening Party held in Toronto and we’ve got your way in. 

But before we give you those details, here’s a bit more about the album release …

About Forty Licks

Initially released in 2002, Forty Licks is a compilation album that showcases thirty-six of the band's most enduring and anthemic songs along with four previously unreleased tracks that added a fresh chapter to their incredible story. 

The album was a celebration of the Stone’s 40th Anniversary and sold 7 million copies worldwide. Bringing together recordings from their days via Decca UK through to Rolling Stones Records, the album became the definitive anthology of their career. 

The original release also coincided with the kickoff of their colossal Licks tour. This global spectacle, executed on a scale only achievable by the Stones, enthralled audiences across continents for a staggering 14 months, encompassing 117 shows. 

At the time, this tour cemented its place in history as the second highest-grossing tour of all time, a testament to the enduring appeal and immense popularity of the Rolling Stones.

The Forty Licks Digital Release

On July 26, fans around the world will be able to immerse themselves in the digital edition of this musical masterpiece. 

FAN FACT: July 26 is also Mick Jagger’s 80th birthday. 

The collection itself boasts an impressive runtime of over two and a half hours, featuring an array of chart-topping hits. Among the twenty US Top 10 singles included in Forty Licks, an astounding thirteen managed to break into the Top 5, with an impressive seven reaching the coveted #1 spot. 

Reimagined with Dolby Atmos, every song will come alive with astonishing clarity, revealing hidden nuances and depths that have never been experienced before.

But that's not all …

Limited Edition Vinyl

Two days later, on July 28, an extravagant limited edition four-disc, 180-gram black vinyl version will hit the shelves, complete with a wide-spined gatefold sleeve, offering a tactile and immersive experience for audiophiles and collectors.
