The Rolling Stones to Revisit Exile on Main Street with Two New DVD 3/18/2010 By Alex Hudson
Now that Mick Jagger and Keith Richards are officially senior citizens, the Rolling Stones are no longer a band that benefit from high definition DVDs. Did anyone else watch Martin Scorsese's Shine a Light in IMAX? Yikes. Nevertheless, the Rolling Stones will be releasing two new DVDs this year, but luckily for the viewing public, both of them use footage from the band's 1970s heyday.
The aging rockers have inked a deal with Eagle Rock Entertainment, who will release the documentary Stones in Exile this June. A making-of feature about the band’s 1972 classic Exile on Main Street, it will arrive in stores just after a bonus-track-heavy reissue of the album.
The documentary will first air on the BBC in late May, while the DVD promises to include bonus material as an added incentive for purchasers. What this bonus material entails is still unknown, but a press release promises that it will be "substantial."
This will be followed by the first-ever official DVD release of the 1974 concert film Ladies and Gentlemen... The Rolling Stones. Filmed on their 1972 tour in support of Exile on Main Street, it will be screened in cinemas later this year. This will be followed by a DVD and Blu-ray release in the fall.
Both DVDs feature the same legendary line-up, with Jagger and Richards supported by Mick Taylor on guitar, Charlie Watts on drums and Bill Wyman on bass. In case you needed a reminder of why the Rolling Stones are still one of the highest-grossing acts in the world, these DVDs should do the trick.
Ladies and Gentlemen... The Rolling Stones
1. "Brown Sugar" 2. "Bitch" 3. "Gimme Shelter" 4. "Dead Flowers" 5. "Happy" 6. "Tumbling Dice" 7. "Love in Vain" 8. "Sweet Virginia" 9. "You Can't Always Get What You Want" 10. "All Down the Line" 11. "Midnight Rambler" 12. "Bye Bye Johnny" 13. "Rip This Joint" 14. "Jumpin' Jack Flash" 15. "Street Fighting Man"

This is huge news--and coming only fourteen years after the release of "Rock And Roll Circus", it suggests that "Cocksucker Blues" should finally see official release in about 2024.

I think that ****sucker Blues will be a little like the journals of Anais Ninn. The more personal ones were only published long after any of the involved parties were were long dead. Let It Be will probably fall into the same category.

Cheers,
I have never seen CS-Blues in its entirety, but no way can it ever live up to the myths surrounding it. I hear that the legend of it is far more fascinating than the actual movie itself.
And, I hope that "Ladies & Gentlemen .. The Rolling Stones" doesn't get delayed because they are trying to digitally remove Bill Wyman from most of the scenes !

I saw CS Blues in 1987 when Robert Frank brought it to Boston for a one-off screening. It was pretty dull.

I bought it on bootleg VHS back in 1990. When that Madonna tour flick came out the next year, I remember trying in vain to explain to everybody where she stole the idea of a tour documentary in which the onstage footage was in color and the backstage stuff was in black-and-white...

Eagle Rock will simultaneously release the DVD and Blu-ray standard editions of "Ladies & Gentlemen…The Rolling Stones" on October 12.
This is probably the most sought after Rolling Stones concert performance and it has been fully restored and remastered from the original film print and multitrack audio masters.
Ladies & Gentlemen follows the highly successful CD reissue of Exile On Main Street (Universal Music Group) in May of this year and the Stones In Exile DVD (Eagle Rock Entertainment) on June 22, 2010. The October 12 releases will be followed shortly after by a deluxe edition box set with additional bonus material and memorabilia.
Filmed in Texas in 1972 over four nights of the "Exile On Main Street" US tour, Ladies & Gentlemen was premiered at the Ziegfield Theatre in New York on April 15, 1974 and released into selected cinemas across the USA shortly afterwards. Bonus features on this release include tour rehearsal footage from Montreux, plus two interviews with Mick Jagger; one from a 1972 Old Grey Whistle Test show, and one filmed in 2010.
The line-up for this show comprised Mick Jagger (vocals), Keith Richards (guitars), Charlie Watts (drums), Bill Wyman (bass), Mick Taylor (guitars) with Bobby Keys (saxophones), Jim Price (horns) and Nicky Hopkins (piano). Ladies & Gentlemen was billed at the time as "…the most powerful rock film ever made" and is considered by many fans to be the finest Rolling Stones performance ever captured on film. This is simply unmissable!
Track Listing: 1.) Brown Sugar 2.) Bitch 3.) Gimme Shelter 4.) Dead Flowers 5.) Happy 6.) Tumbling Dice 7.) Love In Vain 8.) Sweet Virginia 9.) You Can't Always Get What You Want 10.) All Down The Line 11.) Midnight Rambler 12.) Bye Bye Johnny 13.) Rip This Joint 14.) Jumpin' Jack Flash 15.) Street Fighting Man
