The Rolling Stones 50th anniversary show in Hyde Park, London from July this year will be released as the ‘Sweet Summer Sun’ DVD in November.
“It was a great gig”, Mick Jagger said in a statement. “It was beautiful with the sun going down over Hyde Park. I can’t think of a better way celebrate the Rolling Stones’ 50 than doing it on our home patch in front of 100,000 people on a glorious summer night…enjoy it… we certainly did.”
The Stones played Hyde Park 44 years to within a day of when they performed their historic free show in the park in 1969 to honour guitarist and founding member Brian Jones, who had died a week earlier. “Coming back to Hyde Park was like a full circle being drawn, and the band were in top form,” Keith Richards said. “We thought what could be more appropriate than having a great summer in London!”
The shows featured one-time member Mick Taylor who joined the band to perform ‘Midnight Rambler’ and ‘Satisfaction’.
The live recording will also be released on CD and vinyl.
