From the Vault: L.A. Forum (Live in 1975)

• Track Listing

The second volume in this new Stones series of live recordings seeing their first official release takes us to the band’s "Tour of the Americas ’75," their first tour with guitarist Ronnie Wood. (Perhaps you know the story of the Stones turning up on a flatbed truck to play "Brown Sugar" at the official tour announcement in NYC?) They were all warmed up when they gave this July 12, 1975 concert at the Forum in L.A. (part of a five-night stint). The footage on the DVD has been newly restored, and the audio on the CD and triple-vinyl was mixed by Bob Clearmountain for this first official release. OK, this is beyond warmed up; they’re on fire as they tear through "Honky Tonk Women," "Gimme Shelter," "Sympathy for the Devil," "Jumpin’ Jack Flash," "Street Fighting Man," "Brown Sugar," "Angie," "Wild Horses," "It’s Only Rock ’n’ Roll," "Tumbling Dice," "You Can’t Always Get What You Want," "Rip This Joint," "Happy" and more! Eagle Rock.
