It's like i'm dreaming and all my Stones dreams are coming true. Except the dream where i am late on-stage as 3rd guitarist because i am backstage with Marianne, a rug, some dope and a Mars bar.
But this is so great. L&G was the 1st VHS tape i ever owned. In fact, i owned the tape about 6 mths before we got our 1st vhs player! hahaha.
Now, i didnt see this in 74, but i do remember seeing the ad for it when me and a mate went to the Capitol theatre in Swanston St to see "THe Towering Inferno". I knew who they were of course, but it didnt mean much to me. I have image of Mick's purple jumpsuit embedded in my then 10-11 year old brain.
I'll get the blu-ray and i will cross fingers we get bonus stuff. There's some great footage around that should be included. There's a terrible unauthorised doco that gets repeated here in Oz on "Ovation" channel that feature Mick, in light blue jumpsuit (and a tiara i think!) triggering off the old flash pots by his own foot! Kindy risky, dont ya think? The stuff from MSG that i have seen was brilliant. Much more exciting than this film. Right until maybe the last song, you dont even see the audience.
Anyway, to see Charlie's puffy sleeves in hi-def will be a treat.
