THE ROLLING STONES - SOME GIRLS LIVE IN TEXAS '78 (BLU-RAY + CD)

The Rolling Stones Some Girls Live In Texas '78 on Blu-Ray + CD

First Ever Release for this Concert in Any Format!

The Rolling Stones 1978 tour of the USA in support of that year’s Some Girls album is widely considered to be one of their very best. The tour followed immediately upon the album's release and by the time the band arrived in Texas in mid-July the album had hit the #1 spot on the US charts. The tour took a “back to basics” approach, with the band and their music very much at the forefront and little or no elaborate staging.

Filmed at the Will Rogers Memorial Center in Fort Worth, Texas, on July 18th, 1978, this concert is typical of the tour with the Rolling Stones delivering a raw, energetic performance in front of a crowd who are clearly loving the show. Many of the tracks from Some Girls are included in the live set with a sprinkling of Stones classics from earlier albums thrown in for good measure. Originally shot on 16mm film, the footage has been carefully restored and the sound remixed and remastered by Bob Clearmountain from the original multi-track tapes. This is undeniably the Rolling Stones at the peak of their form.

Bonus features include: “Tomorrow” featuring Dan Aykroyd and Mick Jagger from Saturday Night Live, October of 1978; “Shattered,” “Respectable” and “Beast Of Burden” performed by The Rolling Stones, introduced by Laraine Newman from Saturday Night Live, October of 1978; Excerpts from ABC 20/20 Special, introduced by Hugh Downs with interviews by Geraldo Rivera from June of 1978; and an interview with Mick Jagger in France from August of 2011.

This Blu-Ray special edition also includes a bonus CD of the live show packaged in a digipack and slipcase with reproduction tour program.
