It's Only Rock and Roll
One sheet, Rolling Stones, promotional poster for the Rolling Stones' 1974 album,
It's Only Rock 'n Roll. The artwork was created by Belgian artist Guy Peellaert, who also designed the album cover for David Bowie's Diamond Dogs.
While the main album cover features a painting of the entire band descending a temple staircase surrounded by women, this specific poster and the single sleeve for the title track feature a photo of Mick Jagger playing a guitar-shaped microphone. Jagger explained that the image, which shows a pen or sword "digging into" him, was a lighthearted jab at journalists and the criticism the band was receiving at the time.
