Between the Buttons
Between the Buttons is the fifth British and seventh American studio album by The Rolling Stones, released on 20 January 1967 in the UK and 11 February in the US as the follow-up to Aftermath. It was the beginning of the Stones' brief foray into psychedelia. In 2012, the American version of Between the Buttons, which included "Let's Spend the Night Together" and "Ruby Tuesday", was ranked #357 on Rolling Stone magazine's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. -Wikipedia

you'll find it to be one of their strongest, most eclectic LPs, with many fine songs that remain unknown to all but Stones devotees

Keno's ROLLING STONES Web Site
A little bit of everything on Between the Buttons, including some real nice vocals throughout.
-
Rolling Stone
Accused of psychedelia, Beatlephobia and murky-mix syndrome, this underrated keeper is distinguished by complex rhymes.
-
Paste
The Stones make you feel their presence in a way that is so immediate, so essential, so relevant, that one can’t turn his mind away from what they’re doing.

Countdown Kid
at least half the songs are stone-cold classics or at least close to that level

Between the Buttons’ best moments – Connection, Miss Amanda Jones, Back Street Girl – tellingly cleave closest to the band’s original blueprint.

John McFerrin Music Reviews
For the first time, the Stones demonstrated that they could write songs with the best of them, with NO filler whatsoever
-
Wilson & Alroy's Record Reviews
There are some high points here (cleverly produced Jagger-Richards hits like "Yesterday's Papers" and the Dylan send up "Who's Been Sleeping Here?"; the foot-stomping "Miss Amanda Jones"), but also a lot of second-rate rockers

Adrian's Album Reviews
'Between The Buttons' is so simple yet so full of melody. So easily listenable, it creates a rare form a genius without even trying.

Don Ignacio
What I care about is Between the Buttons has melodies, melodies, melodies. It has a lot of spirit, also, which is something that can easily be overlooked.
