Released in the UK in January 1967 by Decca Records and February by London Records in the US - 'Between The Buttons' was the Stones' fifth British and seventh US studio album. Released as the follow-up to 'Aftermath', this album marked a high point in the band's career, continuing their ventures into psychedelia and baroque pop balladry, it is among the band's most musically eclectic works. Brian Jones sidelined his guitar on much of the album, instead playing a wide variety of other instruments including organ, marimba, vibraphone, and kazoo. Piano contributions came from two session players: former Rolling Stones member Ian Stewart and frequent contributor and studio legend Jack Nitzsche. It was the last album produced by Andrew Loog Oldham, the band's manager and producer of all of their albums to this point.
