The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus (1996)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0122689/
The reappearance of The Rolling Stones\' Rock and Roll Circus is a shining moment in our musical history. This live audience extravaganza, conceived by Mick Jagger and performed in 1968, was intended for TV broadcast. It never made it. Due to perceptions and bad judgement, this excellent film lanquished on shelves for years until 1995, when it finally made it to VHS.

But we live in a DVD era where surround mixes abound and bonus additions thrive and make the package. The re-introduction of Rock and Roll Circus bring with it all the new features found on DVDs and then some more. The film iself is remastered to provide a new transfer from the original 16mm negatives. The 5.1 surrounds added into this package are largely ambient but a surround mix nevertheless. Stereo is PCM. The aspect ratio is standard 4x3.
For those who have yet to see Rock and Roll Circus and need a short primer on the film, it is simply this. Set in a circus atmosphere with live performances by Jethro Tull, The Who, the gorgeous Marianne Faithfull, Taj Mahal, The Dirty Mac (a convergence of talent featuring Eric Clapton (Cream), Mitch Mitchell (Jimi Hendrix), Keith Richards, and John Lennon), and, of course, The Rolling Stones and interspersed with trapeze acts and fire-eaters, this show embodied the emerging spirit of 70s rock.
In it you see a picture perfect performance by Jethro Tull with Ian Anderson\'s signature posturing and delivery as well as the band\'s play of \"Song For Jeffrey.\" It is followed by a performance of The Who with their \"A Quick One While He\'s Away\", a smoking R&B performance by Taj Mahal of \"Ain\'t That a Lot of Love\", and a bewitching song by Marianne Faithfull, \"Something Better.\"
In the next performance, John Lennon\'s Dirty Mac (hmmm...Dirty Mac) raises the bar and sets the stage for 70s rock by a free-styled blues-rock set that begins with \"Yer Blues\" and finishes with the avant garde styled \"Whole Lotta Yoko\" with Yoko Ono who rattles the stage with her vocals set to a jam for the ages by the assembled super-group.
Following are six Stones tunes that begin with \"Jumping Jack Flash\", includes a grand performance of \"Sympathy For the Devil\", fills with \"Parachute Woman\", a great acoustic and slide guitar performance of \"No Expectations\", \"You Can\'t Always Get What You Want\", and closed by \"Salt of the Earth.\" All in all, this show runs 63 minutes.
