There first album was an instant success, reaching No 1 in the UK Top 20 Album charts and No 4 in the Billboard Pop Album charts.
Many of the tracks on this album were drawn from there first UK tour in 1963. On this tour, they were a supporting act to a number of American R&B acts, which was a great learning curve for the future song writing team of Mick Jagger and Keith Richards.
Prior to the tour the Stones had released two singles, their first debut single was a Chuck Berry song called “Come On” released in 1963 and there second single, written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney called “I Wanna Be Your Man” was released in the same year. The Beatles also recorded this song, but in Beatles style of course, good old Rock&Roll. The Stones version was a Blues version. Both the Rolling Stones singles did very well and hit the UK top twenty charts.
