專輯簡介：
滾石樂隊(The Rolling Stones)是搖滾史上最成功和最長壽的樂隊之一。The Rolling Stones樂隊至今已有40多年的曆史，堪稱rock n roll的定義者之一。由於樂隊核心米克·賈格爾(Mick Jagger)和凱西·理查茲(Keith Richards)深受Chuck Berry，Howlin Wolf和Muddy Waters等布魯斯藝人的影響，The Rolling Stones幾十年來一直堅持走著傳統布魯斯搖滾路線。
The Rolling Stones由Mick Jagger和Keith Richards組建。這對黃金組合最早相識還是在Kent郡的Dartford上小學時，1960年，兩人通過一位共同的朋友Dick Taylor再次相見。Dick Taylor不僅是Keith Richards在Sidcup藝術學校的同學，同時又是正在倫敦經濟學學校上學的Mick Jagger在“Little Boy Blue and the Blue Boys”樂隊的隊友。不久之後，Keith Richards就在老友的邀請之下加入了Little Boy Blue and the Blue Boys。1961年7月，Jagger與Richards在當地一家酒吧中首次合作演出。在隨後的一年中，Jagger與Richards結識了多才多藝的壞小子布萊恩·瓊斯(Brian Jones)。Jones通曉吉他，薩克斯，黑管等多種樂器，很快便與Jagger和Richards成爲了好友。不久，Brian Jones就決定帶著個人發展期間招募的鍵盤手伊安·史都華(Ian Stewart)一同加入到了Jagger和Richards的陣營當中。1962年4月，Jagger，Richards和Jones宣布將樂隊名正式改爲“The Rolling Stones”，名字來源於布魯斯吉他大師Muddy Waters的歌曲《Rollin Stone》。
這是一張現場專輯。沒什麽特別的。下面是一些關於該專輯的英文信息：
Still Life (American Concert 1981) was originally released June 1, 1982, it went to #1 in both the UK US. The album includes the single hits Going To A Go Go (backed by Beast Of Burden) and Time Is On My Side (live version)(backed by Twenty Flight Rock). Both Going To A God Go and Twenty Flight Rock had not been recorded previously and were not issued on any other albums. Most people know the music, so in my reviews I try to give you data on the sessions and interesting facts connected with the songs and the album. Here we go:
The album was recorded at during the 81 American tour in NJ (11-5), Chicago (11-25), Largo, MD (12-7/8), Tempe (12-13), and Hampton Roads (12-18/19).
Interesting notes include:
.....the Dec 13 Tempe, Arizona concert at Sun Devil Stadium was filmed and became the movie Let s Spend The Night Together (still available here on Amazon.com)
.....Before the Rosemont Horizon shows in Chicago the Stones showed up at the Checkerboard Lounge to jam with Muddy Waters in his last recorded performance before he died in 1983 (videotapes of the show are still popular in the bootleg market)
.....The Stones rehearsed for the tour during August and September at Longview Farm in Brookfield, MA. It was the 1st major corporate sponsored tour, entertaining 2 million paying fans and grossing 60 million.
.....Mick was not getting along with Keith and Woody at this time....they called him Brenda and things got so bad that the tour contract required Mick to stay off the stage when Keith did Little T A.
.....Keith hated the cherry picker that Mick used during the concerts, but when Mick offered to dump it if Keith would give up drugs for the duration of the tour, the cherry picker stayed
.....On Sep 14 the band did a gig as Blue Monday and the Cockroaches at the 350 seat Sir Morgan s Cove in Worcester, MA.....5,000 fans had to be held back to avoid a riot...the club finally opened the doors while the Stones did a short set that could be heard outside
