PRE-ORDER THE 2-CD/BLU-RAY SET ON AMAZON.COM
Twenty years since it was originally aired, The Rolling Stones’ 1998 concert film Bridges To Bremen will finally be released as part of the band’s ongoing archive series from Eagle Vision on June 21 . It captures the complete September 2, 1998 show from Germany’s Weserstadion show, recorded on The Rolling Stones’ final leg of their tour supporting the Bridges To Babylon album.
The Bridges To Babylon tour was a landmark in live Rolling Stones history. For one, it was the first tour to include a permanent B-stage, allowing fans to see the action up-close. It was also the first tour that included fan requests via The Rolling Stones’ website. The concert was originally broadcast on television across in Europe. Millions tuned in to witness the 155-minute concert that featured enduring Stones classics and new tracks alike, and the fan vote-in “Memory Motel.”
On June 21, the set will arrive on Blu-ray, DVD, 2-CD/DVD, 2-CD/Blu-ray, 3-LP. and digital audio and video formats. All the audiovisual material has been newly restored, remastered, and remixed for the occasion. The CD, LP, and digital versions will include the full Bremen show, while the remaining configurations will include additional visual material: four tracks from The Rolling Stones’ concert at Soldier Field in Chicago on April 23, 1998.
All the configurations of Bridges To Bremen are due on June 21 from Eagle Vision. You can find Amazon pre-order links for the 2-CD/Blu-ray, 2-CD/DVD, and 3-LP sets below (standalone DVD and Blu-ray links are on the way.) We’ve also got a full track listing and a new trailer video for Bridges To Bremen!

Why can there not be a CD only release? I am sure I am not the only person NOT interested in the DVD.
If this were 20 years ago, I would think there should be a cd only release, but this is a release more geared towards Stones fanatics. The fact it has five variations to choose from, is a miracle, as it is marketed to us old folks. And another point: I’ve bought most of my Stones releases the last few years used, and a 2cd/dvd set usually goes $20 or less. And let’s face it, brand new, it’s not going to be $500 or something severe. And if anything close to $20 is an issue, you should not be spending your money on such things. Just buy the set, and give the dvd away. The Blu Ray is going to sound at least a tiny bit better than the cds anyway, depending on your setup. That’s what I’m going to buy, and I doubt I’ll listen to the cds except maybe for my next road trip
I am quite disappointing of most of the reissue program released by the Dartford finest. No Brian jones era stuff (I know there are copyrights issues), but there are tons of soundboards of American tour 1972 and Get Your Leeds Out was available only as part of the expensive SF box set. Do we really need a BtB concert?
Can’t these guys FINALLY release a Blu-Ray compilation of their respective promotional-made for tv-music videos in the same vein as the Beatles did with the two-disc Blu-Ray of ‘Number 1’s?’ I have the old Betamax tape of ‘Video Rewind’ (with Bill Wyman serving as the tour guide of a Rolling Stones museum where Jagger is found ‘frozen’ in a display case and after ‘thawing’ out provides the viewer with a tour of the facility including Music Videos) that presented just a snippet of the music videos/films that are, and would be, available for such a compilation. After all, they are bound to run out of interesting post-1985 live concert videos sooner or later. Oh, and that ‘Rolling Stones’ channel that can be used to stream all of these ‘videos’ just doesn’t have the quality affixed to it that an official, remastered hard disc can/will deliver.
