1975. Geraldo Rivera for his Good Night America program catches up with Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones during their Tour of the Americas, beginning the night before the first show in Baton Rouge about what it’s like after 10 years of rock ‘n roll. The Rolling Stones and their rebellious, ferocious style is not only a big change from prior rock bands but has also led to injuries and even a death at one of their concerts. We hear from Mick on this amongst other things. The acting career may not take off but on his stage, in front of his band, the best there is.
Footage from an incident Altamont, CA during a 1970 show is seen, with the Hell’s Angels doing security.
Later in the segment, a glimpse of the amazing amount of work it takes to put on a concert and stay on top, before hearing parting thoughts about the Rolling Stones, the greatest rock ‘n roll band in the world.
Mick Jagger continues to perform in music, lately in the Hackney Diamonds tour during 2024.
