The Rolling Stones - Live Performance of 'Come On' from Hackney

Venue: Gaumont Cinema Location: Bournemouth, England, United Kingdom Date: October 26, 1963

On October 26, 1963, The Rolling Stones were at a pivotal moment in their early career, performing "Come On" during a live broadcast for the BBC's "Saturday Club." This performance occurred just a few months after they released their debut self-titled album, "The Rolling Stones," which was launched in April 1964, showcasing their raw rock and roll energy and establishing their presence in the music scene. At this point, they were gaining significant traction as part of the British Invasion. An interesting fact about this performance is that it highlighted their early inclination toward covering blues and rock classics, setting the stage for their later, more original work. This era laid the foundation for their evolution into one of the most influential rock bands in history, ultimately leading to the creation of iconic albums and the development of their unique sound as they matured throughout the 1960s and beyond.
