The Rolling Stones

In January 1971, The Rolling Stones were in a prolific phase of their career, having just released the classic album "Sticky Fingers" in April 1971. This was a pivotal moment for the band, marking their transition into a more mature and experimental phase, as "Sticky Fingers" featured iconic tracks like "Brown Sugar," which was performed in the intimate setting of the Marquee Club in London. This live recording, part of the "From The Vault" series, highlights the raw energy and charisma of the band during this period. The Marquee performance was one of the few opportunities for fans to see The Rolling Stones in such a small venue, showcasing their ability to command a stage regardless of the size. Notably, this era also saw the introduction of their new emblem, the tongue and lips logo, solidifying their image as rock icons. This particular performance underlines the band's connection with their audience and their status during a groundbreaking time in rock music.
