The Rolling Stones’ 1967 album, Their Satanic Majesties Request, remains one of the most debated and experimental chapters in rock history. Often dismissed at the time as a derivative response to the Beatles' Sgt.

The recording sessions for Satanic Majesties took place in December 1966 and February 1967 at Olympic Studios in London.
