The Rolling Stones

On July 5, 1969, The Rolling Stones performed a historic free concert in Hyde Park, London, shortly after the tragic death of their founding member, Brian Jones. This live recording features "I'm Free," a track from their album "Out of Our Heads," which was originally released in 1965 but found renewed relevance during this period of their evolution. Following the Hyde Park concert, the band would release "Let It Bleed" later that year, which would solidify their darker, more mature sound. The concert was not only significant as a tribute to Jones but also marked the debut of Mick Taylor as a member of the band, showcasing a transitional phase. The event attracted a massive audience and symbolized the counterculture movement of the late 1960s, encapsulating the spirit of the era while underscoring the band's resilience in the face of adversity.
