Because Mick Jagger and Keith Richards were still honing their songwriting skills, only "Empty Heart" and "2120 South Michigan Avenue" were credited to "Nanker Phelge", a pseudonym for band-written compositions. The rest of the EP is composed of R&B covers from some of their favorite artists. Andrew Loog Oldham produced Five by Five and even contributed liner notes where he lists the band`s achievements thus far (and stretches the truth by claiming the Rolling Stones` debut album had spent 30 weeks at #1 when it, in fact, was at the top for 12).[citation needed]
The full recording of "2120 South Michigan Avenue", now heard on the remastered 12 X 5, was faded early here for lack of time available on a conventional EP in 1964.

Five by Five reached number one in the UK EP chart,[citation needed] while its five tracks and namesake would form the basis for their second American album, 12 X 5, later in 1964.[1]
In his book The Rolling Stones: An Illustrated History, British rock critic Roy Carr wrote that "along with the Beatles` Long Tall Sally four-tracker, 5 X 5 is unquestionably the first and last great EP."[1]
Five by Five was reissued on CD in 2004 on the Singles 1963–1965 box set through ABKCO Records. In November 2010, it was made available as part of a limited edition vinyl box set titled The Rolling Stones 1964-1969, by itself digitally at the same time, and in 2011 as part of the 60`s UK EP Collection digital compilation.
On 20 April 2013, the EP was reissued on 7-inch vinyl record as a part of Record Store Day 2013.
