English band The Rolling Stones has signed an exclusive, long-term worldwide recording contract with Vivendi's Universal Music. The Rolling Stones ended their 16 year relationship with the record company EMI after making the new deal with VUM.
A representative of VUM said on Friday that the new deal covered both future albums by The Rolling Stones and their back catalog, including such albums as "Sticky Fingers" and "Black and Blue" and songs "Brown Sugar" and "Start Me Up".
Vivendi's Universal Music, the world's biggest recording company, did not disclose their terms and condition of the deal.
The representative of The Rolling Stones said, "Universal are forward thinking, creative and hands-on music people. We really look forward to working with them".
In March, Universal Music released the soundtrack album from "Shine A Light", a career-spanning documentary on The Rolling Stones.
All new recordings will be released via Universal's Polydor label and handle full digital and physical rights as part of the agreement.
The company's representative said, "Universal Music Group will begin planning an unprecedented, long-term campaign to reposition The Rolling Stones' entire catalogue for the digital age".
