The Rolling Stones — Emotional Tattoo, Signed Vinyl
2014 – Signed LP, Warhol Cover, Ed. 350
Issued in 2014 as a limited edition of 350 copies, this pressing of Emotional Tattoo is signed by all four members of the Rolling Stones, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood, which places it among the most closely held Rolling Stones objects of the last two decades. The edition returns to the 1983 release of the same title, preserving its identity while transforming its presentation.
The sleeve carries the portrait of Mick Jagger painted by Andy Warhol, with the artist's signature reproduced on the cover; the reverse gathers ten further portraits of Jagger, a sequence that turns the object into a small Warholian cycle rather than a conventional record. The 2014 edition also improved the printing quality over the 1983 original, which had been issued with a lesser cover and a different back image.
The vinyl is pressed in green and black, carries the catalogue reference RST-ST 01, and collects material recorded during the 1981 and 1982 sessions connected to Emotional Rescue and Tattoo You. With the full band's signatures and a tightly limited run, it sits at the intersection of rock memorabilia and pop art collecting.
