Welcome To Shepherd’s Bush [180g 2 LP]

As The Rolling Stones were preparing to play two nights at Wembley Stadium in June 1999, their first London shows in 4 years, they announced a surprise show at London’s Shepherd’s Bush Empire for June 8, 1999. An intimate crowd of 1,800 lucky fans were treated to a number of rarely heard gems over the course of 96 minutes. As Mick Jagger stated from the stage that night, « If you want to see the hits go to the big place down the road. » And as promised, the deep cuts were deep – « Melody » performed for the first time since 1977, while « Moon Is Up » was brought to the stage for the only time in the band’s live career. Sheryl Crow, who opened the show, joins the band during « Honky Tonk Women. » This 2 LP package is pressed on 180g black vinyl.
