The English rock group the Rolling Stones have released 25 studio albums, (27 in the US), 12 contemporary live albums, 27 archival live albums, 28 compilation albums, 3 extended plays, 125 singles, 31 box sets, 51 video albums, 3 video box sets and 80 music videos. Throughout their career, they have sold over 250 million albums worldwide. The Rolling Stones have scored 38 top-10 albums (9 No. 1 albums) on the Billboard 200 and 8 No. 1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100. According to the Recording Industry Association of America, they have sold 66.5 million albums in the US, making them the 16th best-selling group in history.
From 1963 to 1970, the band were signed to Decca Records in the United Kingdom, and Decca's subsidiary label London Records in the United States. During 1971 to 1992, the band ran their own record company, Rolling Stones Records, distributed by WEA (UK 1971 to 1977, US 1971 to 1984), EMI (UK 1978 to 1984) and CBS (1985 to 1992). They were then signed to Virgin Records from 1993 to 2006, and Universal Music Group since 2007. The band maintain ownership of their catalogue from 1971 onwards, while the pre-1971 catalogue is owned by ABKCO Records.
Before 1967, it was common practice for British releases to be reconfigured for the American market. In some cases, the US version would be an entirely different album with different tracks, cover photos and liner notes. The first five British Rolling Stones studio albums were converted into seven studio albums for the American market, adding material from singles and the UK EPs (for example, the tracks on the band's third British album Out of Our Heads (1965) were spread across three American albums – Now!, Out of Our Heads and December's Children (And Everybody's) (all 1965). The first two greatest hits albums, Big Hits (High Tide and Green Grass) (1966) and Through the Past, Darkly (Big Hits Vol. 2) (1969), also differ in each nation. The 1966 live album Got Live If You Want It! and the 1967 compilation album Flowers were US-only releases. Studio and live albums starting with Their Satanic Majesties Request, released in December 1967, are uniform in both the UK and the US, although compilation albums still sometimes vary.
