Forty Licks is a double compilation album by The Rolling Stones. A 40-year career-spanning retrospective, Forty Licks is notable for being the first retrospective to combine the band's formative Decca/London era of the 1960s, now licensed by ABKCO Records (on disc one), with their self-owned post-1970 material, distributed at the time by Virgin/EMI but now distributed by ABKCO's own distributor Universal Music Group (on disc two). Four new songs are included on the second disc. Concurrently with the album's release, the Rolling Stones embarked on the successful, year-long international Licks Tour, which would result in Live Licks in 2004.

Originally distributed by Virgin Records in 2002, Forty Licks went out of print after Virgin parent EMI lost distribution of the Stones' post-1970 material to Universal Music in 2008.

All tracks are digital remasters in stereo, except for all tracks pre-1966, which are digital remasters in mono.

[edit] Critical reception

Forty Licks has received mostly positive review from music critics, but not all. Allmusic's Stephen Thomas Erlewine felt that like ELV1S: 30 #1 Hits, Forty Licks was greatly influenced by The Beatles' 1, but that the album's concept worked better than on ELV1S.[1] Although Rob Brunner gave a favorable review of the album for Entertainment Weekly, he felt that the album was not needed because most Rolling Stones fans already have all of the good songs on the album.[2] Darryl Sterdan of Jam! CANOE also felt that most fans already owned most of the songs on the album and that "Losing My Touch" was the only good new song on the collection.[3] Rob Sheffield of Rolling Stone felt that there were several songs missing from the album, but that the compliation was exciting and the four new songs were much better than their other recent work.[4] Stylus Magazine's Colin McElligatt felt that the band needed an "all-inclusive" collection, but the collection will not please everyone.[5]
