The cover
Andrew Loog Oldham left the band’s name and album title off the British debut’s front, according to the Rolling Stones fan archive IORR. The American England’s Newest Hit Makers used the same portrait with the band’s name and its promotional title added.

The British debut: what critics said
Michael Gallucci’s Ultimate Classic Rock retrospective hears a dangerous edge in the debut’s rough blues and R&B performances, even when the playing sounds rushed. He picks “Tell Me” and “I Just Want to Make Love to You” as highlights. His account distinguishes the British album from England’s Newest Hit Makers, whose American running order replaces “Mona” with “Not Fade Away”.

1,506 records have stored song entries; 675 do not. Complete-setlist coverage is not established. Missing entries do not establish that a song was not played.
Song observations count distinct record IDs with a matching title after playback entries are excluded. These are documented appearances, not verified full-song performances. Tour groupings can include warm-up dates.
