The original material shows a progression. 'Heart Of Stone' has a memorable chorus & 'Off The Hook', a B-side I believe, has the confidence of their best cover material. Then, of course, there's the cover of Willie Dixon's 'Little Red Rooster', a rare blues number 1 hit. It still hits the spot. Of their early US releases, 'Now!' is one of The Stones' most confident & consistent.

This is the 3rd USA Stones studio album released in 1965 by their initial USA distributor, London Records.
The album contained 7 tracks from their 2nd UK album The Rolling Stones No. 2, the recent USA Top 20 hit "Heart of Stone", & other songs which would appear on the UK edition of the Stones' next album Out of Our Heads later in 1965.

The cover songs on this 1965 gem are a bit more obscure than on the Stones' 1st 2 long-players, not a bad thing for a band still getting its writing chops together (if admirably; "Heart of Stone" & "Surprise, Surprise" are particularly strong). If there were still doubts that these London kids had any business playing this music, a casually scorching "Down the Road Apiece" should have allayed them; the stomp they lay on Bo Diddley's "Mona" & Jagger's lazy drawl on the New Orleans obscurity "Down Home Girl" make for canny mood changes.

Amazon review:
By Docendo Discimus TOP 500 REVIEWER

"The Rolling Stones Now!" isn't often mentioned when people talk about the Stones' greatest albums, but in all fairness it should be.
"Now!" is almost uniformly strong from start to finish, including superb covers of "Down The Road Apiece", Bo Diddley's vibrating "Mona", Otis Redding's "Pain In My Heart", & one of the group's best early gems, "Little Red Rooster", a pure blues with wonderful slide guitar playing by Brian Jones (it gave the Stones a #1 single in Britain).
As songwriters, Jagger & Richards were still learning, but they did come up with an American Top 20 hit, the great, soulful "Heart of Stone", as well as the thumping, Chuck Berry-styled rocker "Off The Hook".

"The Rolling Stones Now!" is a muscular slice of blues, rock n' roll & soul music, & a must-own even for moderately serious fans.
4 1/2 stars - highly recommended.
