It’s often forgotten that Mick Jagger, who has become one of the most recognisable faces and voices of rock and roll with the Rolling Stones, is also a successful solo artist.Now The Very Best, a seventeen track collection, shows off Jagger for the very first time as all the hits of the rock and roll legend are put together to make one album.The album brings together a range of musical forms including blues, reggae, rock and roll and ballads showing off Jagger as a talented singer and songwriter for any and every genre.The album spans thirty seven years of his illustrious career from the 1970 ‘Memo from Turner’ to the 2004 Golden Globe winner for Best Song from the film Alfie ‘Old Habits Die Hard’.There’s also a treat on the album as two previously unreleased records Charmed Life and Checkin’ up on My Baby are included on the record along with old favourites such as Dancing in the Street and Don’t Call Me Up.The Best of does exactly what it says on the tin leading fans old, and hopefully new, through a distinguished career with a string of catchy records which vary widely in style keeping it fresh.

The Very Besy of Mick Jagger is out now.
