CHECK IT OUT: The Rolling Stones on October 25th, 1997 performing “Sister Morphine” live in Port Chester, New York.
FYI: Although the Rolling Stones’ 1971 Sticky Fingers album is among the most beloved of their entire catalogue, Mick Jagger isn’t sure all the tracks will translate live. This week, the band announced that they would be hitting stadiums across North America, as well as reissuing Sticky Fingers in an expanded massive deluxe set.
Jagger spoke to Rolling Stone about the possibilities of the album being played in full: “We’re floating the idea of playing the whole album. At the very least, we’ll play the songs we don’t normally play. It’s a really great album. But it has a lot of slow songs. Normally in a show we’d just do one or two ballads. Sticky Fingers has about five slow songs. I’m just worried that it might be problematic in stadiums. Maybe we’d play it and everyone would say, ‘Great,’ but maybe they’ll get restless and start going to get drinks.”
As the details of the Stones’ recording sessions leaked out over the years, fans have been amazed that songs started during 1969’s Let It Bleed sessions were actually finally realized in time for 1972’s Exile On Main Street collection — not to mention that nearly all of the tracks from 1981’s Tattoo You featured outtakes from Goats Head Soup, Black And Blue, Some Girls, and Emotional Rescue.
