This is one of the greatest of the Stones two-sided monster hits. Well, the B side didn't actually chart, but it's so great it really should have. Presumably, radio just wasn't ready to play a song called "Bitch" yet... though they were prepared by 1975 when Elton John hit the Top 10 with "The Bitch Is Back." Note: This beautiful, Near Mint copy comes in a Rolling Stones "tongue" sleeve. It has pristine Mint sound.

OK, trivia time again... "Brown Sugar" was one of eight #1 U.S. singles by the Stones. The group also had eight chart-toppers in their native England, though over there they garnered all of those hits during the 1960s.

Here is the list of the Stones' #1 U.S. singles:

• (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction (1965)
• Get Off My Cloud (1965)
• Paint It, Black (1966)
• Ruby Tuesday (1967)
• Honky Tonk Women (1969)
• Brown Sugar (1971)
• Angie (1973), and
• Miss You (1978)

For comparison's sake, here are their #1 U.K. hits. You'll notice that the group gained monster popularity about a year earlier than they did in the U.S., same as the Beatles.

• It's All Over Now (1964)
• Little Red Rooster (1964)
• The Last Time (1964)
• (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction (1965)
• Get Off My Cloud (1965)
• Paint It, Black (1966)
• Jumpin' Jack Flash (1968)
• Honky Tonk Women (1969)
