''Singles Collection: The London Years'' is a of every Rolling Stones single - and their B-Sides - mostly in their original mono mixes (at least as of the 2002 reissue), in both the UK and US encompassing their entire era with Decca Records in England and London Records in America - hence the album's title. The only omissions are "Natural Magic" (a Ry Cooder instrumental, released as the B-side to "Memo From Turner"), and "Let It Rock" (released in the UK on the "Brown Sugar"/"Wild Horses" single).

With a range from 1963 to 1971, the set begins with their very first UK single, Chuck Berry 's "Come On", and runs to '' Sticky Fingers ''' "Brown Sugar" and "Wild Horses" (which Allen Klein shares release rights with The Rolling Stones).

The set was released at a timely juncture, just a couple of weeks before The Rolling Stones' comeback album '' Steel Wheels '' was due for release after a significant break, and months following their induction into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame . Going platinum, the album reached #91 in the US.

In August 2002, ''Singles Collection: The London Years'' was issued in a new remastered CD and SACD Digipak by ABKCO Records .
