The Rolling Stones emerged in the summer of 1963 as the so-called "bad boys" antidote to the Beatles, a characterization that became one of the foundations of modern rock 'n roll. In the 25 years that followed, the Stones have succeeded in outraging, mystifying, confusing yet always inspiring their fans.
25 x 5: The Continuing Adventures of The Rolling Stones is the first time that the Stones have gone on camera to tell their own story. Over two hours of devastatingly frank narratives by Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts, Bill Wyman, and Ron Wood are underscored by rare interview segments with Brian Jones and Mick Taylor, and rare and never-before-seen archival film, video, and newsreel footage.
The early years are captured in vintage live performances on British tv (such as Ready Steady Go); American appearances on The Ed Sullivan Show, Shindig and Hollywood Palace; and fan hysteria in the U.S. and Europe. Unreleased scenes from Rock 'n Roll Circus and the legendary Cocksucker Blues also make 25 x 5 indispensible. And there is more: Godard's One Plus One (Sympathy For the Devil) and the chaos of Alta-mont (Gimme Shelter) are represented; the concert films (Ladies and Gentlemen, the Rolling Stones and Let's Spend the Night Together); press conferences and business deals; personal glimpses of wives and fami-lies; Mick and Keith's feuding and solo projects; induction into the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame; and all the tours-from 1964 to 1989.
The soundtrack features nearly 40 songs-starting with
"Good Times, Bad Times" and "2120 South Michigan Ave-nue" from 12 x 5, climaxing with the making of the Steel Wheels album and the complete, unedited version of the
"Rock and a Hard Place" video. Executive producer Lorne Michaels (NBC's Saturday Night Live and The Rutles) and producer Andrew Solt (This Is Elvis and Imagine: John Lennon) have constructed nothing less than the definitive study of the Rolling Stones.
