The Rolling Stones discography
This is an annotated listing of the recordings of The Rolling Stones. The early Stones albums from 1964 to 1967 were originally released on Decca Records in the UK, and on London Records in the US, often in quite different forms.

Studio albums
When early Rolling Stones albums (pre-1967 releases) were released in America, they often differed from UK releases. In some cases, the US version would feature a different track listing and cover than its UK counterpart (these albums have been placed in both categories below). In two cases, US record companies would combine tracks of two or more UK albums into a completely new album for US release (December's Children (And Everybody's) and Flowers) .
