Eagle VisionThe Rolling Stones‘ have announced plans for the latest installment in their series of archival audio and video concert releases.
Bridges to Bremen documents a September 2, 1998, show in Germany that took place near the end of the band’s yearlong tour in support of the 1997 Bridges to Babylon album. The previously unreleased concert film and album will hit stores on June 21.
It’ll be available as a DVD/two-CD or Blu-ray/two-CD set, as a three-LP bronze-vinyl package and in digital formats. The footage has been restored, and the audio remixed and remastered.
The Bremen show featured 22 songs, including Stones classics such as “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction,” “Gimme Shelter,” “Paint It Black,” “Miss You,” “Sympathy for the Devil,” “Start Me Up,” “Jumpin’ Jack Flash” and “Brown Sugar,” as well as renditions of five tunes from Bridges to Babylon and a cover of Bob Dylan‘s “Like a Rolling Stone.”
The Bridges to Babylon tour was the band’s first to feature a permanent “B-stage” set up on the floor of the venue, where the group played a mini-set. It also was the first Stones tour where fans could vote online for a special request song at each show: The tune chosen for the Bremen concert is the 1976 gem “Memory Motel.”
The DVD and Blu-ray of Bridges to Bremen feature four bonus performances taken from a September 1997 concert at Chicago’s Soldier Field, including “Under My Thumb” and “Let It Bleed.”
