Some Girls: Live In Texas '78
The Rolling Stones 1978 tour of the USA in support of that year’s ‘Some Girls’ album is considered by fans to be one of their very best. The tour followed immediately on the release album and by the time the band arrived in Texas in mid-July it had hit the No.1 spot on the US charts. The tour took a back-to-basics approach, with the band and their music very much at the forefront and little or no elaborate staging. Filmed at the Will Rogers Memorial Center in Fort Worth, Texas, on 18 July 1978, this concert is typical of the tour with the Rolling Stones delivering a raw, energetic performance in front of a crowd who clearly love the show. Many of the tracks from ‘Some Girls’ are included in the set, together with a sprinkling of Stones classics from earlier albums. Originally shot on 16mm film, the footage has been carefully restored and the sound remixed and remastered by Bob Clearmountain from the original multi-track tapes.
