Coming on July 9th is the Rolling Stones‘ new multimedia set, The Rolling Stones — A Bigger Bang: Live On Copacabana Beach. The double-DVD, two-CD set was captured in Brazil on February 8th, 2006 at Rio de Janeiro’s Copacabana Beach in front of a reported 1.5 million people — both on land and at sea. The set, which is an expanded version of the 2007 release, is packaged in a 12-by-12, 40-page book, along with an exclusive bonus DVD including a November 2005 concert in Salt Lake City — also from the band’s tour behind A Bigger Bang.
The collection will also be issued as a triple-LP — pressed on blue, yellow, and green vinyl, along with a clear vinyl version.
Keith Richards said in the press release for the new set: “Not that we’re unused to playing some of the biggest shows in the world, but I must say Rio did take the cake.”
Mick Jagger added: “It was amazing. It was a really good audience. They know how to enjoy themselves on those occasions.”
