    The three-disc box set  Singles Collection: The London  Years  contains
    every single  the Rolling  Stones released  during the  '60s, including
    both the A- and B-sides. It is the first Stones compilation that  tries
    to be comprehensive and logical ù for all their attributes, the two Hot
    Rocks sets and the two Big Hits collections didn't present the  singles
    in  chronological order.  In essence,  the previous  compilations  were
    excellent samplers, where  Singles Collection tells  most of the  story
    (certain albums, like Aftermath, Beggars Banquet and Let It Bleed, fill
    in  the gaps  left by  the singles).  The Rolling  Stones made  genuine
    albums ù even their early R&B/blues albums were impeccably paced ù  but
    their  singles  had a  power  all their  own,  which is  quite  clearly
    illustrated by  the Singles  Collection. By  presenting the  singles in
    chronological order, the set  takes on a relentless,  exhilarating pace
    with each hit and neglected B-side piling on top of each other,  adding
    a new dimension to the group; it has a power it wouldn't have had if it
    tried  to sample  from the  albums. Although  it cheats  near the  end,
    adding  singles  from  the Metamorphosis  outtakes  collection  and two
    singles from  Sticky Fingers,  this captures  the essence  of the  '60s
    Stones as  well as  any compilation  could. Casual  fans might  want to
    stick with the Hot Rocks sets,  since they just have the hits,  but for
    those that want a little bit more, the Singles Collection is absolutely
    essential. [The  Rolling Stones'  London/ABKCO catalog  was reissued in
    August  of  2002, packaged  in  digipaks with  restored  album artwork,
    remastered and released as hybrid discs that contain both CD and  Super
    Audio CD layers. The remastering ù performed with Direct Stream Digital
    (DSD) encoding ù is a drastic improvement, leaping out of the  speaker,
    yet still sounding like the original albums. This is noticeable on  the
    standard CD  layer, but  is considerably  more pronounced  on the  SACD
    layer, which is shockingly realistic in its detail and presence, yet is
    still faithful to the original mixes; Keith's revved-up acoustic guitar
    on "Street Fighting  Man" still sends  the machine into  overdrive, for
    instance, it just sounds like he's in the room with you. Even if you've
    never  considered  yourself  an   audiophile,  have  never  heard   the
    differences between  standard and  gold-plated CDs,  you will  hear the
    difference with SACD, even on a cheap stereo system without a  high-end
    amplifier or speakers. And you  won't just hear the difference,  you'll
    be an instant convert and wish, hope and pray that other artists  whose
    catalog hasn't been reissued  since the early days  of CD ù Bob  Dylan,
    Bruce Springsteen, Neil Young, especially  the Beatles ù are given  the
    same treatment in the very near future. SACD and DSD are that good.
