Built around a brand-new remix by the ubiquitous Steven Wilson, the set will be released by Interscope and UMe in a variety of…

Shattered: The Rolling Stones’ 1999 Shepherd Bush Gig Arrives in November from Mercury Studios

October 31, 2024 by Joe Marchese | 3 Comments

Rolling Stones Welcome to Shepherd's Bush

The Rolling Stones have long been famed for their “secret shows.” One of those took place on June 8, 1999 when Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Ronnie Wood, Charlie Watts, and company took the stage at the Shepherd’s Bush Empire, a 1903 music hall in the West London suburb. In front of an 1,800-capacity crowd including such luminaries as Anita Pallenberg, Pete Townshend, Jerry Hall, Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, and Bob Geldof, the World’s Greatest Rock and Roll Band strutted their stuff just days before two sold-out shows at the 70,000-seat Wembley Stadium. …

The Rolling Stones’ 2002-2003 Licks World Tour was one of The World’s Greatest Rock and Roll Band’s most innovative. To celebrate the band’s 40th anniversary (and the release of the career-spanning compilation 40 Licks), venues would come in three different sizes: small theatres, arenas, and stadiums. Setlists would be scaled to the size of each venue, with the theatre settings giving the band the most freedom to perform lesser-known gems in addition to their major hits.

Paul McCartney’s 2020 “lockdown” – make that “rockdown” – album, McCartney III, was seemingly ubiquitous upon its release with various-color editions on CD, LP, and cassette; Discogs currently shows 57 unique versions of the album.

Now, for its third anniversary, Macca is offering another release with yet more variants.
