Overview
Ladies & Gentlemen is the legendary lost Rolling Stones concert film, shot over four nights in Texas during the 1972 Exile on Main St. tour and barely seen for decades. It played a handful of cinema engagements in 1974, then effectively disappeared. This restored and remastered edition was its first authorised release on DVD.
What's on it is the Stones at a peak. The 1972 touring band — Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Mick Taylor, Bill Wyman, Charlie Watts — running through "Brown Sugar," "Gimme Shelter," "Tumbling Dice," "Bitch," "Midnight Rambler" and "Jumpin' Jack Flash." Mick Taylor's guitar work alone makes this era essential, and the film catches it in close, unfussy detail.
The restoration cleans up the picture and rebuilds the audio for surround without sanding off the grit. It's a concert film in the purest sense — no documentary framing, no backstage story, just the show as it was played.
The disc rounds out with previously unreleased tour rehearsal footage filmed in Switzerland and Mick Jagger interviews from both 1972 and 2010, so the bonus material brackets the film with then-and-now perspective.
Interesting Facts
- The film was shot during the Stones' 1972 American tour supporting Exile on Main St., widely regarded as one of their strongest touring years.
- After limited 1974 cinema showings, the film stayed largely unseen for over three decades before this restored DVD release.
- The bonus tour rehearsal footage, filmed in Switzerland, includes "Shake Your Hips," "Tumbling Dice" and a "Bluesberry Jam."
- One bonus interview comes from BBC Television's Old Grey Whistle Test, with Mick Jagger speaking to Richard Williams, first broadcast 24 March 1972.
- Photography for the release is credited to Ethan Russell, with additional photographs by Bob Gruen — both major rock photographers of the era.
- This edition presents guitarist Mick Taylor's brief but celebrated tenure with the band, a lineup many fans consider the Stones at their live best.
