I was 15 years old and rode my bike 4 miles to Hughes Stadium at 9 am...Loved Rufus and Chaka Kahn, Billy Preston and the Stones...went up front...smoked columbian and was given beers..waited till after dark to go home so...the eyes couldnt be seen...went to my my room and jammed LPs with my Koss headphones well into the night...Yesss !!!
You're being far too kind in your assessment. My remedy for your otherwise quite rightly diagnosed ailment: Check out the Billboard Top 200 albums chart for any random week of the last 5-8 years --- and when you consistently see the likes of Fleetwood Mac, AC/DC, CCR, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Aerosmith, Queen, the Eagles, and the Beatles and Stones (plus others), take heart in knowing that it is the current group of teenagers and 20-somethings that are keeping them there.
My first Rock show, 14 years old Dad came home with 2 tickets day of show me and my best friend took the high speed line Jersey to Philly spectrum Thanx Dad Rock in Peace !
1990 i was 12&i LOVE Bands like IRON MAIDEN,AC/DC,METALLICA, HALLOWEEN,SEX PISTOLS,DEAD KENNEDYS....and then came my Dad+say:"I show u R'n'R" He take me to Munich,Form the URBAN JUNGLE-Tour.....🤩🥰😍......
great memories of an unrepeatable era, rock was at its best, everything was modern at the right point loudspeakers, amps, guitars and great musicians no bullshit special effects, look at the human beings of 1975, all beautiful, thin bodies without fat, all together to live in the moment, without smartphones between them.
"Beautiful thin bodies without fat" !! WTF?? You loser! They are unhealthy scrawny bodies that are like that because they have been deprived of good nutrition and exercise and replaced with too much drugs including tobacco, coffee and alcohol as well as lack of sleep. Idiot!!
@@montinaladine3264 If you compare a concert in the 70s with a current one, you will see a large part of the current audience fat and full of fat, even current people use drugs, alcohol and little sleep, but mainly comfort, laziness, being at home in front of the internet and TV and bad nutrition has totally made people ugly ,,, Why do you offend?
@@PeteCswampy It was a battle to hold my position in the front row. Almost everyone in the stadium wanted to be in that spot and made every effort to achieve it. (General Admission). Thousands of very drunk and high teenagers jostling for the best view. At one point, someone barfed all over my shoes. It was so packed that the crowd lifted me off of my feet and I just sort of swayed around with audience. I was up all night so not feeling too good. But it was a great show. I didn't have a camera (no cell phones back then) but the next day I was shocked to see that I was on the front page of the Denver Post. (with about 200 other people).
@@philblane5752 Dead right there Phil. My idea of a great concert is when you are awoken by the folks with the green plastic bags doing the cleaning up and im in a coma in the mosh pit. Ah, those were the days, and the folly of youth. Ha ha ha.
I was stationed at Ft. Carson in Colorado Springs and road up on a buddies Kawasaki 750, 2 stroke, 3 cylinder. I was 20 and just about to be discharged to go home. Pretty damn good show. Damn I've gotten old.
I don’t know, it seemed most the seats were awful - even in the front row… I would have wanted at least a big screen, so I could at least see what was going on. But the cell phones and etc I could do with out
4 sure.. it was cool in 1976 to see Mick run around bare chested with the American Flag around his shoulders.. it was nearly the 4th of July at Soldier Field in Chicago.. Charlie just grinned and smiled all night and kept the beat.. Keith was staying clean everyone said he just checked out of supervised rehab.. so he was a little intense but played very very well.. Mick was running all over the stadium with a microphone.. setting off huge fireworks displays himself. It was appropriate and very timely.. the fans loved it.. so did he I think.. it was not so fancy.. simply lovely weather, beautiful night outdoors with the Rolling Stones. Fantastic.. from the front row. We had an escourt in and out of the show.
They're horrible live, though. Mick isn't singing --- he's speaking monotone, and shouting. This is an example of what real SINGING is live: th-cam.com/video/wwwplStgzp4/w-d-xo.html
Saw the ‘72 show, 4th of July at RFK in DC. I was 12. My Dad waited in the parking lot. I just walked in, no one bothered to take my ticket. My ears were shattered by cherry bombs in the corridors before I got to my seat. The bathrooms were filled with people shooting up which scared the daylights out of me. The fireworks were insane and many people got hurt or burned. It was naive to go alone and I almost went back to the car. I never took a seat like a lot of people and just roamed until I got to the stage side of the stadium. Then I followed some dudes that people were afraid of as they muscled their way to the better seats. All I remember was smoke and explosions until the police stopped the show for like 20 minutes. They started the show again with Love In Vain. It was fantastic but again the fireworks started to get out of control.
@@tsfurlan Preston always wore that giant afro wig. People thought it was his real hair, but that was his thing. In fact, for a short while, Billy's band opened for the Stones, and Mick Taylor, (who played lead guitar for both acts) and the rest of the band would sport the giant afro wigs as well.
i was only a kid in 1975 and as such too young to go to concerts. althoughi was lucky enought to see the band with bill wyman in 1989 i still get jealous when i see this old footage as far as good ol rock n' roll the 60's and the 70's were by far the best decades that ever were or will be.

Yes!!! sure it was the good times!! I was a kid in these years, but remember well the mood then.. I'm lucky I knew the 80's as a teenager, cause although it was very different state of mind than the 70's , life was still on a reasonable and human way, still far from social media and permanent control of the machine and virtual thing..

@@franram7426 Glad to hear you like the band I first saw live in 1975. But you're WRONG when you say Keith is playing better than ever. That's simply not true. I love this band, too - have since 1964 - but let's keep it real.
@@acousticshadow4032 He's playing "differently" and has said so due to arthritis.... But the shows have not suffered. The experience is still so good that I'm getting as much of them as I can while they're still will to perform. Also,, I'm not a music snob. I've seen "The Midnight Ramblers" in Thailand twice, "The U.S. Stones" in Orlando twice and "Satisfaction" in N.C. twice..... All three of these cover bands ROCKED.... It's the music more than the musicians. Now.... The real guys have a sound system that rattles your internal organs and they are clearly better than the cover guys which why I TRAVELED here to Miami to see them again. I'm not getting on an airplane to see a cover band. All 6 of those cover shows..... Basically I only had to cross the street.
@@franram7426 Listen...I can't get thru your "War & Peace" essays. I suggest you employ some brevity on YT. Nobody is worth the amount of text you're trying to shove down our throats. Otherwise, you have made my point. ARTHRITIS has changed Keith's playing - and it shows.
Mick's Parasol Umbrella made this whole video, what a diva - LOL ! Keith & Ronnie are The Little Red Roosters along with The Fanfare for the common man. I saw The Rock n' Rolling Stones @ MSG in 1975 when I was 15 years old and it was a gas !!! They where Great !!! This posting is one cool blast from the past.. Thanks For Posting A Rolling Stones 1975 Moment In Time.
Fantastic wonderful footage of my Youth!!! Those times REALLY did Rock! And, fantastically Mick still does! No other time in the history of the world like it, I still pinch myself my youth was a part of -- there are no real words to describe it all
Very cool great quality historic color footage of the Rolling Stones back in '75...at the Colorado State University in Fort Collins. Plus the amazing Elton John and Billy Preston too! Thank you for sharing. Cheers.
I went to this Tour In Dallas at the Cotton bowl in Dallas Tx. It was one of the first concerts I ever went to. The line up there was Montrose, Trapeze, The Eagles, ( w/o Joe Walsh) And the Stones with Billy Preston!
Same! I took a girl I barely knew for a first date. She was beautiful and absolutely boring (turned out she was always that way). But the concert was terrific, despite the usual Texas summer heat. TBH, the Stones seemed a bit sloppy that day, but the Eagles were in top form.
@@rickuresti2858 As hot as it was that day It was still a great show. The stones came on in the evening after it cooled down some, and were locked, loaded & rockin!. Mick got a little "weird" with Billy Preston during the part of the show that featured Billy's music.
It would be wonderful to see whole concert in video and audio... Fantastic photos! Jagger seems very relaxed but still energetic. Also great to see 70's audience in this clip.
@@neilthemedflyspecial Heinzbuck and I say The Stones. Beatles were the best band at one time, but only stayed together 9 years (1960-69...i will not count 1970)
"Do you think he can do it at 32?" Lol... Mick's still doing it nearing eighty! In his book Elton remembers the concert - played one song with them but got carried away and played a lot more. Keith wasn't happy. Rock concerts in the seventies must have been so much fun.
As a little kid living in Loveland, had no idea that this was going on down the road. One year later; Big Thompson Flash Flood; 7/31/76. Life and death along the Front Range.
I saw them at this tour, but at night, indoors at the Inglewood Forum in Southern Cal. Upon the opening fanfare, a huge mechanical rose petal opened up, and that became the stage. Was outright amazing. Back then there were no projectors and video screens, of course. Fortunately I was pretty close to the stage, 8th row. The band arrived in 2 station wagons -- no chopper transport at that show. Saw them for 2 nights back to back.
Seems like Billy Preston AND Elton for that many songs would've been a bit much on the keyboard end of the spectrum. If they wanted him to move along, seems Mick could have finessed it over the mic and EJ would've gotten the hint.
I was up front at the Seattle show two days before this. The day after this show I flew to Houston with a stopover in Denver. I ran around the airport buying every newspaper I could find so I could read the reviews of this show.
wow - thank you - I was at this concert. Remember well how they arrived in a helicopter. And to this day, the opening chords of "Happy" continue to be the most rockingest experience of my life. I also remember seeing this goofball wandering around the stage in a giant cowboy hat, playing piano - he was never introduced... It was Elton John! Good stuff. Appreciate it! Mick's final words for the day..."Time to go - the sky's too big!" It was a glorious Colorado sunset.
I was there too--my first Stones show. Mick actually did introduce Elton John as "Reg from Watford." You can hear it if you listen to the bootleg recording.
@@tonyschenk3357 oh good lord - thank you! (I may have been preoccupied at the time of this announcement...) Reg from Watford...you know...I actually half remember that - just had no idea who the bloke was.... :)
There was a guy backstage with the cowboy hat and the Dodgers jacket. That wasn’t Elton, was it? I was thinking it might be Billy Gibbons from ZZ Top. I know they opened for the Stones in 72, and I thought they might’ve brought them back for 75. I wouldn’t set foot in that stadium until 12 years later, when I was a freshman at CSU. LOL
Great video, didn"t know this. I saw the Stones in 1982 in Basel, Switzerland. Mick chucked bucketfulls of water into the crowd which was hugely popular.
I was there for this concert. There was a drive in movie theater across the street from the stadium. They had a special event, the night before, live bands concession stand open all night, just one big party and admission was $15.00 a car load.
Mick Brigden from Southend, England. Did of lot of good bands in his day, Humble Pie, Satriani, Stones etc. Worked with Peter Rudd who suffered no fools.
@@stringer-ik1pc Um... he was a personal friend of George Harrison's and a known artist when he played with the Beatles in 1969, and a hitmaker of his own when with the Stones in 1975.
@@stringer-ik1pc Besides Waddy Wachtel and Billy Preston name how many got on the albums BUT also on stage with them for entire tours? Or as in Billy Preston's case was actually given his own spot during the show.(Billy was allowed a few songs each night during this tour IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STONES SET!) Oh and name the ten a penny you speak of. Lol
I saw the Stones in Chicago, The Stadium on South Madison, in July, 1975. It must have been right after this show. 3 consecutive nights, starting July 23. I waited in line all night a few months before and got main floor, row 23. When the Stones started, Jagger was on a point of the stage and pushed down. He ended up about 20 feet away. He swung on a rope over the crowd. The place went nuts. I recall Ronnie Wood had just joined the band. I read about it in Rolling Stone magazine.
Thank you to Colorado Music for sharing this video. I first saw the Stones in 1981- Rich Stadium Buffalo NY. I saw them again about five years ago, at the same venue and they rocked the place just as hard, and sounded just as great as they had 40 years ago! They flew in with the Stones plane a few days prior to the show- Mick, Charlie, and Ronnie where out and about town.
Was für ein Mega - Concert...was für eine Ausstrahlung von Superstar Mick Jagger ✌️...was für ein Oberkörper...✌️✌️ Der beste Oberkörper der Welt ✌️✌️ Amazing ✌️✌️
I was supposed to see this Tour with my HS Social Studies teacher, but couldn't get up the funds to go in time. Funny how watching this is even exciting.
"The grass withers, the flower fades when the breath of the Lord blows on it; surely the people are grass. The grass withers, the flower fades but the word of our God will stand forever" psalm 40
A few things I noticed. 0:04 $10.00?!! We payed 20.00 for the show in Memphis, 7/4. Charlie Daniels Band, The Meters, J.Geils Band and Furry Lewis (solo) opened. Worth every damn penny. 0:24, Keef's Mother of Pearl guitar. I've never seen later photo's of it? You Gotta Move 7:48. Concert highlight. I was 18 that year, things sure have changed. Don't get me started on cell phones. Too many great bands then. Young and free. Keep on Rock'in my Brothers and Sisters.... love and "light"
I saw them in 75 . I was one of few excited to see Wood to walk and Keith to walk out late and get cheered . Out with the old in with the new . I feel about the same now . I miss Charlie and resented the fans that back then Taylor was far more important than Charlie and the rest. Back then it was a quitter vs a Champion of the band like Charlie. I exited to see Jordan man the skins . I saw him with the " Wino's" and he played fantastic . Jordan was no hat pick or step in ,he was endorsed by Charlie and I'll respect that. Charlie picked Daryl Jones previously and again no hat pick.Very tight rhythm section. Charlie's was happy with them ,so I'll be happy to see them in October 😎❗.
ikr...must be an awesome feeling...i liked it when the Stones were hanging out right before going on, then that trumpet sounded "Fanfare For The Common Man", they begin walking out...the crowd buzzing, getting louder, cheering wildly as they see Mick and Keef climbing those stairs to the stage....wow.
Was there, Rufus , Charlie Daniels then the Stones. Ron Wood playing, Billy Preston on keys. So much Acid don't remember Elton John. Long drive back to Douglas Wyoming
As a classical composer that likes rock too, this clip with Elton + the R. Stones for me is truly surreal in a good way. The main reason is the Copland Fanfare for the Common Man intro music playing before they go on stage (which is of course an amazing piece). It gives the clip an unwordly grandeur, as the Copland piece parallels in my view with the (wonderful) arrogance and massive charisma both Elton and Jagger had then. What makes it even more surreal is that Elton, a huge star then, was just doing backing piano as Reg - he obviously was a big fan of the Stones. One of those brief real moments in time captured on film which is almost mesmerising. I can see why ELP used the Fanfare. I love Copland's works btw so maybe it has particular resonance personally for me.
A year or two earlier, summer of '73 or '74, Elton John showed up without publicity to play with Leon Russell at an Atlanta stadium show we stopped to see while passing through town. Leon was at the peak of his fame, just after Carney, and Elton John seemed happy to support a friend for a few songs with dueling pianos.
I was at this concert. I hitchhiked up from Albuquerque, NM to get there the day before. Then hitchhiked up from an overnight stay in Denver. Two days later I rode with my girlfriend and friends to Los Angeles. This was my first time in California. I remember it rained on us at this concert and I was sitting on the ground in front of the stage somewhere with a jacket over my head. Rufus with Chaka Kahn and Charlie Daniels were the warm up bands. I don't even remember the music at all. Maybe too stoned or just too long ago. Wow, I can't believe they had this on TH-cam but it is a collection of other concerts. Mick did not change clothes that much at this concert I don't think.
Saw them in music city three days ago...not this raw I saw this tour in Memphis July fourth 1975 Opened with Honky Tonk Women This band chronologies my life from the earliest hits like 66 or Red Rooster till 80s I love them and thank y’all so much
I was there very warm that day we went up the night before we were do tired. It was so long ago have a hard time remembering some of it. This is so cool seeing this August 16, 2021 I don't remember Elton John???
I had no idea that this video existed , I was 13 years old . This was my first out doors concert. What a wonderful experience this was . the things I saw.. wow. ! I went with my sister and her boyfriend and a group of about 6 other people including a gal that I lost my virginity with the night before... I still talk to her to this day. Anyway, opening act, Rufus, then Charlie Daniels Band, then the stone came on... on the key board was Billy Preston. I had no idea till just now after seeing the vid that Elton John was there... Wow. I remember buying my ticket for $10 at the May D&F customer service in the North Valley Mall in Thornton and thinking $10 was a lot of money.. OMG . I have seen the Stones a total of 5 times now. The first 3 were probably the best. The first time I was within 30-40 yards from the stage. I didnt know how lucky I was
That was my first Stones concert. I had just returned to the States from Kwajalein where I went to High School. 5 years later I was interviewing Charlie Daniels in studio at a radio station I was working at in Huntsville Al. We spent the night on the road above the stadium. Hash or Grass. I just saw the Stones in Nashville on October 9th with a woman I knew from Kwajalein High School. She went to Colorado Mountain College in Leadville. Now lives north of Nashville. Damn. This video F'ing incredible.
I hitched to that concert from Denver and never could find the friends I planned to meet with. Once we got onto the reservoir, security wouldn't let us leave. Did this video mention that two people died, I think from soaking the heat and then the shock of contacting the cold water. Elton John and Billy Preston were a surprise.
Thanks all people for this info. Historically time for the CLASSIC ROCK !!!!!!!! All you need is ROCK MUSIC !!!!! ALWAYS . ..........alex vitebsk Belarus 🎩 ✌
I was 15 in 75, the shows i went go n the 70's.. ELO, Peter Frampton & Steve Martin (lets get small) lol, between 76 & 79...not many but memorable for a teen

I've seen "The Midnight Ramblers" in Thailand twice, "The U.S. Stones" in Orlando twice and "Satisfaction" in N.C. twice..... All three of these cover bands ROCKED.... It's the music more than the musicians. Now.... The real guys have a sound system that rattles your internal organs and they are clearly better than the cover guys which why I TRAVELED here to Miami to see them again. I'm not getting on an airplane to see a cover band. All 6 of those cover shows..... Basically I only had to cross the street.
@@franram7426 Listen...I can't get thru your "War & Peace" essays. I suggest you employ some brevity on YT. Nobody is worth the amount of text you're trying to shove down our throats. Otherwise, you have made my point. ARTHRITIS has changed Keith's playing - and it shows.
Mick's Parasol Umbrella made this whole video, what a diva - LOL ! Keith & Ronnie are The Little Red Roosters along with The Fanfare for the common man. I saw The Rock n' Rolling Stones @ MSG in 1975 when I was 15 years old and it was a gas !!! They where Great !!! This posting is one cool blast from the past.. Thanks For Posting A Rolling Stones 1975 Moment In Time.
Mick reportedly Stated that he and Keith are gonna continue touring with the Stones until 2039 where they will each pursue solo careers...Gd lol
😄
What a charmed life these lads have led… Nobody could begrudge them… and they were concerned with his fitness to perform at 32… 😎
Keith’s hair was perfect
Mick has always been fascinating to watch on stage.
A fuckin-A groove of Gimme Shelter.... raw.... Love it!!!
Ha security was a bit more relaxed back then! What incredible footage.
Security really got tight after Lennon.................................

My first Stones concert. Could not miss Billy Preston's afro from 50 yards away!
Afrodisiac!

@@ichbin4122 I respect his keyboard playing.
Too bad Fort Collins today is just fake bluegrass...
1965. Satisfaction #1 all summer.
Hello, how are you doing? It is nice seeing you here.
Fantastic wonderful footage of my Youth!!! Those times REALLY did Rock! And, fantastically Mick still does! No other time in the history of the world like it, I still pinch myself my youth was a part of -- there are no real words to describe it all
Very cool great quality historic color footage of the Rolling Stones back in '75...at the Colorado State University in Fort Collins. Plus the amazing Elton John and Billy Preston too! Thank you for sharing. Cheers.
70s rule! No phones .. no distraction .. real interactions.
Agreed...dunno but Kentucky fried chicken tasted a heck of a lot better back then as well.
Yes and with no big screen technology the people at the back were watching ants on a stage they were that far away lol
I went to this Tour In Dallas at the Cotton bowl in Dallas Tx. It was one of the first concerts I ever went to. The line up there was Montrose, Trapeze, The Eagles, ( w/o Joe Walsh) And the Stones with Billy Preston!
Same! I took a girl I barely knew for a first date. She was beautiful and absolutely boring (turned out she was always that way).
But the concert was terrific, despite the usual Texas summer heat. TBH, the Stones seemed a bit sloppy that day, but the Eagles were in top form.
I too was at that show…..it was the 4 th of July weekend and hot as hell…..I remember the Eagles played “ Good day in Hell” cause of the heat!
46 years later they're returning to the Cotton Bowl November 2nd 2021, alas, without Charlie. 😢
@David Michaels I Love Montrose Great band.
@@rickuresti2858 As hot as it was that day It was still a great show. The stones came on in the evening after it cooled down some, and were locked, loaded & rockin!. Mick got a little "weird" with Billy Preston during the part of the show that featured Billy's music.
What fun and pure joy they brought to us!
It would be wonderful to see whole concert in video and audio... Fantastic photos! Jagger seems very relaxed but still energetic. Also great to see 70's audience in this clip.
Glory days! Peace & love were greater values!!
Check Wolfgangs Vault They have some film & audio from the 70's Fillmore Shows.
Stones are coming to Minneapolis next month, my 5th time seeing the best band ever!
“best band ever”? that belongs to the beatles.
Best. Band. Ever. coorect!
@@neilthemedflyspecial Heinzbuck and I say The Stones. Beatles were the best band at one time, but only stayed together 9 years (1960-69...i will not count 1970)
"Do you think he can do it at 32?" Lol... Mick's still doing it nearing eighty!
In his book Elton remembers the concert - played one song with them but got carried away and played a lot more. Keith wasn't happy. Rock concerts in the seventies must have been so much fun.
They were fantastic.
Elton seems to be an overbearing personality.
Oh they certainly were

I saw them at this tour, but at night, indoors at the Inglewood Forum in Southern Cal. Upon the opening fanfare, a huge mechanical rose petal opened up, and that became the stage. Was outright amazing. Back then there were no projectors and video screens, of course. Fortunately I was pretty close to the stage, 8th row. The band arrived in 2 station wagons -- no chopper transport at that show. Saw them for 2 nights back to back.
The Fabulous Forum.
Incredible video with a Bill Graham cameo,thanks!
I like how they left the goalpost up. You never know when you're gonna need to kick a field goal.
or get a better view...lol
I saw them in Buffalo on this tour. What a great piece of random footage that captures the time.
This was the concert where Elton John over stayed his welcome which pissed Keith off. He stayed for 10 songs instead of one.
Seems like Billy Preston AND Elton for that many songs would've been a bit much on the keyboard end of the spectrum. If they wanted him to move along, seems Mick could have finessed it over the mic and EJ would've gotten the hint.
Doesn't surprise me ! !
And to this day, if I read correctly, Keith is no fan of Elton.
Thank you for sharing 💕
Hello, how are you doing? It is nice seeing you here.
I was up front at the Seattle show two days before this. The day after this show I flew to Houston with a stopover in Denver. I ran around the airport buying every newspaper I could find so I could read the reviews of this show.
What’s cool is that was Billy Preston (the 5th Beatle) wearing the beige suit walking onstage, arm in arm with Mick!
The 5th Beatle? Dude, you're confusing with George Martin.
wow - thank you - I was at this concert. Remember well how they arrived in a helicopter. And to this day, the opening chords of "Happy" continue to be the most rockingest experience of my life. I also remember seeing this goofball wandering around the stage in a giant cowboy hat, playing piano - he was never introduced... It was Elton John! Good stuff. Appreciate it! Mick's final words for the day..."Time to go - the sky's too big!" It was a glorious Colorado sunset.
I was there too--my first Stones show. Mick actually did introduce Elton John as "Reg from Watford." You can hear it if you listen to the bootleg recording.
@@tonyschenk3357 oh good lord - thank you! (I may have been preoccupied at the time of this announcement...) Reg from Watford...you know...I actually half remember that - just had no idea who the bloke was.... :)
There was a guy backstage with the cowboy hat and the Dodgers jacket. That wasn’t Elton, was it? I was thinking it might be Billy Gibbons from ZZ Top. I know they opened for the Stones in 72, and I thought they might’ve brought them back for 75. I wouldn’t set foot in that stadium until 12 years later, when I was a freshman at CSU. LOL
@@davidsthubbins176 studying footwear, no doubt?
@@DustinMercer 😆
Great video, didn"t know this. I saw the Stones in 1982 in Basel, Switzerland. Mick chucked bucketfulls of water into the crowd which was hugely popular.
La más Grande Banda de rock de todos los tiempos.
Pre-show footage marks the high point of Keith's relationship with Captain Fantastic. LOL
I was there for this concert. There was a drive in movie theater across the street from the stadium. They had a special event, the night before, live bands concession stand open all night, just one big party and admission was $15.00 a car load.
Drive in is still there, stadium not so much.
That bloke in the sunglasses, "just one punch...just one punch"
Yep, he seems like the perfect douchebag tour manager, straight out of the movie _This is Spinal Tap_ 😁🤣
Mick Brigden from Southend, England. Did of lot of good bands in his day, Humble Pie, Satriani, Stones etc. Worked with Peter Rudd who suffered no fools.
Great footage. Wist there was more outdoor concerts footage off the 75 tour.
This is great. Never seen this footage before. Interesting because it shows Keith famous Zemaitis pirate 5 string that was destroyed in a fire. Cool.
Amazing how Billy Preston was practically a member of the 2 greatest bands in the known universe.
Session musician. They're ten a penny.
@@stringer-ik1pc Um... he was a personal friend of George Harrison's and a known artist when he played with the Beatles in 1969, and a hitmaker of his own when with the Stones in 1975.
@@stringer-ik1pc Besides Waddy Wachtel and Billy Preston name how many got on the albums BUT also on stage with them for entire tours? Or as in Billy Preston's case was actually given his own spot during the show.(Billy was allowed a few songs each night during this tour IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STONES SET!) Oh and name the ten a penny you speak of. Lol

@@stringer-ik1pc Actually they're the only ones who can really play in some of these bands.
"Showbiz"...RIP, the great Bill Graham
I saw the Stones in Chicago, The Stadium on South Madison, in July, 1975. It must have been right after this show. 3 consecutive nights, starting July 23. I waited in line all night a few months before and got main floor, row 23.
When the Stones started, Jagger was on a point of the stage and pushed down. He ended up about 20 feet away. He swung on a rope over the crowd. The place went nuts. I recall Ronnie Wood had just joined the band. I read about it in Rolling Stone magazine.
Oh, Mick with his cute little green Umbrella and red gloves!
What a fashion plate!
Funny cause out of stage Mick is pretty classic far from the performer.
They all looked great good music too
Hello, how are you doing? It is nice seeing you here.
Thank you to Colorado Music for sharing this video. I first saw the Stones in 1981- Rich Stadium Buffalo NY. I saw them again about five years ago, at the same venue and they rocked the place just as hard, and sounded just as great as they had 40 years ago! They flew in with the Stones plane a few days prior to the show- Mick, Charlie, and Ronnie where out and about town.
That was a miserable wet windy day at Rich Stadium.
I saw them one week later in Detroit. Great show - nearly 50 years ago!
Thanks thanks thanks a loT!!!! Love it love it love IT !!!!!! Cheers mate!!!!
Saw this one during my CSU days. Mick comes on stage and says hello Denver. Warm up acts Shaka ka and Marshall Tucker.
CORRECTION- Chaka Khan, and The Charlie Daniels band opened that show…..
Was für ein Mega - Concert...was für eine Ausstrahlung von Superstar Mick Jagger ✌️...was für ein Oberkörper...✌️✌️ Der beste Oberkörper der Welt ✌️✌️ Amazing ✌️✌️
Was für ein bildhübscher , androgyn er , junger Mick Jagger ✌️ ... Amazing ✌️ Schon damals der größte Rockstar aller Zeiten und des Universums ✌️✌️
I was there to, spent the night in car out side in housing area.. went in about sun up .dj played here comes the sun. great time never saw em again
That was a Bill Graham tradition, for big stadium shows the sound system played Here Comes the Sun for the folks who camped out overnight
I was supposed to see this Tour with my HS Social Studies teacher, but couldn't get up the funds to go in time.
Funny how watching this is even exciting.
Probably mentioned already but these clips were shown in Tony Palmer's All You Need Is Love series, the episode "Sour Rock". Thanks for this!
Fabulous clip

3 years later almost to the day, I saw them live. Yeah, the 70s were good.
A few things I noticed. 0:04 $10.00?!! We payed 20.00 for the show in Memphis, 7/4. Charlie Daniels Band, The Meters, J.Geils Band and Furry Lewis (solo) opened. Worth every damn penny. 0:24, Keef's Mother of Pearl guitar. I've never seen later photo's of it? You Gotta Move 7:48. Concert highlight. I was 18 that year, things sure have changed. Don't get me started on cell phones. Too many great bands then. Young and free. Keep on Rock'in my Brothers and Sisters.... love and "light"
That 5-string of Keef's with the MOP was sadly lost to a fire, sometime after that tour.
@@sharkfintech5893 Thx Shark. I did not know that. That's a drag, it was a beautiful guitar.
OH MY GOD...Mick looks like Jamie Lee Curtis in "Trading places"
I saw them in 75 . I was one of few excited to see Wood to walk and Keith to walk out late and get cheered . Out with the old in with the new . I feel about the same now . I miss Charlie and resented the fans that back then Taylor was far more important than Charlie and the rest. Back then it was a quitter vs a Champion of the band like Charlie. I exited to see Jordan man the skins . I saw him with the " Wino's" and he played fantastic . Jordan was no hat pick or step in ,he was endorsed by Charlie and I'll respect that. Charlie picked Daryl Jones previously and again no hat pick.Very tight rhythm section. Charlie's was happy with them ,so I'll be happy to see them in October 😎❗.
What a feeling being up on stage..wow..
ikr...must be an awesome feeling...i liked it when the Stones were hanging out right before going on, then that trumpet sounded "Fanfare For The Common Man", they begin walking out...the crowd buzzing, getting louder, cheering wildly as they see Mick and Keef climbing those stairs to the stage....wow.
Could you imagine being *Mick Jagger?*
What a life!
No thanks, he's a self indulgent, hedonistic, egomaniac, who needs to be on stage to be worshipped. Great music tho.
Yea what a life he has had the ultimate front man who has had a great life outside the band as well.
Yes. I can.
@@tsfurlan Agreed. I’d rather be me any day.
@@tsfurlan you poor miserable man
Seminal music.. Thanks for posting.
Was there, Rufus , Charlie Daniels then the Stones. Ron Wood playing, Billy Preston on keys. So much Acid don't remember Elton John. Long drive back to Douglas Wyoming
As a classical composer that likes rock too, this clip with Elton + the R. Stones for me is truly surreal in a good way. The main reason is the Copland Fanfare for the Common Man intro music playing before they go on stage (which is of course an amazing piece). It gives the clip an unwordly grandeur, as the Copland piece parallels in my view with the (wonderful) arrogance and massive charisma both Elton and Jagger had then. What makes it even more surreal is that Elton, a huge star then, was just doing backing piano as Reg - he obviously was a big fan of the Stones. One of those brief real moments in time captured on film which is almost mesmerising. I can see why ELP used the Fanfare. I love Copland's works btw so maybe it has particular resonance personally for me.
'Fanfare for the Common Man' has pageantry, but especially by this time, an innocence - post Vietnam/Watergate.
A year or two earlier, summer of '73 or '74, Elton John showed up without publicity to play with Leon Russell at an Atlanta stadium show we stopped to see while passing through town. Leon was at the peak of his fame, just after Carney, and Elton John seemed happy to support a friend for a few songs with dueling pianos.
Why is Mick prancing around with an umbrella. Noticed in the opening credits it said Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones. What's up with that?
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fanfare_for_the_Common_Man
Wow, that is a really cool version of Gimme Shelter, especially that intro!
Great video. Mick sounds like he is stoned. Band grooves like hell.
Loved the '70's
I was at this concert. I hitchhiked up from Albuquerque, NM to get there the day before. Then hitchhiked up from an overnight stay in Denver. Two days later I rode with my girlfriend and friends to Los Angeles. This was my first time in California. I remember it rained on us at this concert and I was sitting on the ground in front of the stage somewhere with a jacket over my head. Rufus with Chaka Kahn and Charlie Daniels were the warm up bands. I don't even remember the music at all. Maybe too stoned or just too long ago. Wow, I can't believe they had this on TH-cam but it is a collection of other concerts. Mick did not change clothes that much at this concert I don't think.
Back when kids could hitchhike w/o worrying too much about killers on the road...brains are swirlin' like a toad....take a long holiday...
When Rock n roll was a serious thing.
Saw them in music city three days ago...not this raw
I saw this tour in Memphis July fourth 1975
Opened with Honky Tonk Women
This band chronologies my life from the earliest hits like 66 or Red Rooster till 80s
I love them and thank y’all so much
I was there very warm that day we went up the night before we were do tired. It was so long ago have a hard time remembering some of it.
This is so cool seeing this August 16, 2021
I don't remember Elton John???
I had no idea that this video existed , I was 13 years old . This was my first out doors concert. What a wonderful experience this was . the things I saw.. wow. ! I went with my sister and her boyfriend and a group of about 6 other people including a gal that I lost my virginity with the night before... I still talk to her to this day. Anyway, opening act, Rufus, then Charlie Daniels Band, then the stone came on... on the key board was Billy Preston. I had no idea till just now after seeing the vid that Elton John was there... Wow. I remember buying my ticket for $10 at the May D&F customer service in the North Valley Mall in Thornton and thinking $10 was a lot of money.. OMG . I have seen the Stones a total of 5 times now. The first 3 were probably the best. The first time I was within 30-40 yards from the stage. I didnt know how lucky I was
That was my first Stones concert. I had just returned to the States from Kwajalein where I went to High School. 5 years later I was interviewing Charlie Daniels in studio at a radio station I was working at in Huntsville Al. We spent the night on the road above the stadium. Hash or Grass. I just saw the Stones in Nashville on October 9th with a woman I knew from Kwajalein High School. She went to Colorado Mountain College in Leadville. Now lives north of Nashville. Damn. This video F'ing incredible.
And no one knew who Chaka Khan and Rufus were.
I was there at 17 with my sister and her boyfriend. I'm 65 rn and just now happened upon this footage! Gave me chills!
2:39 - This is so Spinal tap!!!
I saw them at The Cotton bowl in Dallas, Tx on this tour...a few days earlier..mid July, 1975...The Eagles and Montrose fronted.
I hitched to that concert from Denver and never could find the friends I planned to meet with. Once we got onto the reservoir, security wouldn't let us leave. Did this video mention that two people died, I think from soaking the heat and then the shock of contacting the cold water. Elton John and Billy Preston were a surprise.
Mick was not insecure at all in his masculinity for sure,lol
Seen them in 1975 in Chicago. I thought at the time that they might quit touring and I was glad to see them before they broke up. WRONG!
Thanks all people for this info. Historically time for the CLASSIC ROCK !!!!!!!! All you need is ROCK MUSIC !!!!! ALWAYS . ..........alex vitebsk Belarus 🎩 ✌
