Sticky Fingers é o nono álbum de estúdio da banda de rock inglesa The Rolling Stones, lançado no Reino Unido no dia 23 de abril e nos Estados Unidos no dia 30 de abril de 1971. Este álbum está na lista dos 200 álbuns definitivos no Rock and Roll Hall of Fame1

É o primeiro lançamento da banda em seu recém-criado rótulo Rolling Stones Records, depois de terem sido contratados desde 1963 da Decca Records no Reino Unido e da London Records nos Estados Unidos. Foi produzido por Jimmy Miller e os engenheiros de som foram Glyn Johns, Andy Johns, Jimmy Johnson e Chris Kimsey.

É o primeiro álbum dos Rolling Stones em que o guitarrista Mick Taylor, substituto de Brian Jones, morto em 1969, toca do começo ao fim. É também o primeiro disco dos Stones onde aparece o conhecido logotipo da língua.

Em 2001, a rede de TV VH1 colocou Sticky Fingers no número # 46 em seu estudo dos melhores álbuns. Em 2003, Sticky Fingers foi listado como # 63 na lista dos 500 maiores álbuns de todos os tempos, da revista Rolling Stone.

User Album Review
By 1970 the Stones had earned the right to take a little time to turn out their next album. Bedding in new boy, Mick Taylor, on their well-documented tour of the States the year before had also involved a little studio time at Muscle Shoals studio. The results of these sessions and songs held over from Beggars Banquet were also brought to the table when they reconvened, still a little bruised from the apocalyptic events at Altamont. These were now grown-up men with families, demons and more to cope with who assembled at Jagger’s Stargroves mansion with their mobile studio in the summer of 1970.
In the topsy-turvy world of success they’d had more than their share of recent ups and downs. Sticky Fingers was destined to be the triumphant first release from their self-owned label but this success was leavened by the fact that they’d signed over their back catalogue to previous manager Allen Klein and had to give him the royalties from Brown Sugar and Sway to boot. The incessant touring meant that the band were now world citizens, but they still moved closer to their American roots. Using the usual support cast of Bobby Keys, Ry Cooder and Nicky Hopkins they turned their experiences into ten tracks of narcotic misery and sexual frustration. All wrapped in a very louche Andy Warhol sleeve.
Narcotics are a major theme, of course, but also loss, frustration and incredible world-weariness. Reviews at the time complained that Sticky Fingers lacked the bite of previous releases like Let It Bleed or Beggars Banquet, but it’s this very quality that makes the album special. Like Neil Young’s Tonight’s the Night, the sense of a wake creeps through tracks like Dead Flowers and Sister Morphine.
Elsewhere, the Delta serves as a touchstone for some of Jagger’s most heartfelt wailing as on I Got the Blues and You've Gotta Move, while he’s never bettered his lechery on Brown Sugar. Taylor’s arrival is keenly felt on Can’t You Hear Me Knocking?, with its Santana-esque coda. Sway and Bitch are hard-bitten rockers that couldn't exist without Charlie’s taut snare.
Eventually the whole thing collapses in on itself with Moonlight Mile. A coked-out, somnambulant drift through an era’s last days, and a beautiful end to a beautiful journey. While many hold their next album, Exile On Main St., as their zenith, Sticky Fingers, balancing on the knife edge between the 60s and 70s, remains their most coherent statement.
