The Rolling Stones are streaming video of their classic 1971 hit, “Brown Sugar”, from the September 29 release of “Sticky Fingers: Live At The Fonda Theatre 2015.”
Part of the band’s ongoing “From The Vault” series, the package presents the group performing their legendary 1971 album in its entirety – for the first and only time – at The Fonda Theatre in Los Angeles on May 20, 2015.
The rare theater event was a warm-up show just days before the Stones launched their Zip Code tour of North America, and the release of an expanded reissue of the classic 1971 set.
The intimate setting of the 1,200 capacity Fonda Theatre was in contrast to the huge stadiums in which the band would perform for the rest of the tour.
Launched with the lead single, “Brown Sugar”, “Sticky Fingers” debuted at No. 1 and enjoyed a four-week stay atop the Billboard 200 on its way to US sales of more than 3 million copies.
“Sticky Fingers: Live At The Fonda Theatre 2015” will be available on DVD, Blu-ray, DVD+CD, DVD+3LP and digital formats.
The DVD & Blu-ray include interviews with band members and Bonus Features that deliver songs cut from the concert film, including “All Down The Line,” “When The Whip Comes Down” and “I Can’t Turn You Loose”, while the CD and 3LP feature the full show as performed on the night.
The Rolling Stones delivered a series of rarities during the September 9 launch of their No Filter European tour at the Stadtpark in Hamburg, Germany.
The 22-song set featured three tunes the band haven’t played in years, including the first appearance of "Play With Fire" since 1990, the “Goats Head Soup” track “Dancing With Mr. D” was last performed in 1973, and “Under My Thumb” won the fan song vote after last being heard in 2006.
The trek will wrap up with the third of three shows at the U Arena in Paris, France on October 25 – which also marks the very first concerts at the new venue.
