The Rolling Stones Rock 'n' Roll Circus. I'm sure yer all familiar with this December 1968 show created by Mick Jagger. It was never released, until now. Great footage, at least from a historical point of view. The last performance of Brian Jones, who would die shortly thereafter. Lots of present day commentary from the artists including a lengthy interview with Pete Townsend. Narration by Ian Anderson, Marianne Faithful, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and others. Lots of backstage and never before seen performace footage. Sound is in 5.1 and the video quality was very good. It was great to see this and anyone interested in taking a historical peek into the 1968 London music scene may find this enjoyable. Also, I knew Tony Iommi played for Tull for just a brief time but I wasn't sure if he played with them on The Rock 'n' Roll Circus gig. Anyway, this video comfirmed it. Here we have Tony miming the guitar parts for Tull's performance of "A Song For Jeffrey". Tony's only appereance with the band. Great stuff.

Hey, Darren.

Thanks for your review of The Rolling Stones Rock 'n' Roll Circus. I saw this one on the racks at HMV, today, and was wondering about the video quality. Very good, just sold me, as did the Jethro Tull trivia. I'm picking it up, tomorrow during my lunch.

Thanks, again,
Bill
