The Rolling Stones Full Concert in Sydney - February 1973

Venue: Royal Randwick Racecourse Location: Sydney, New South Wales, Australia Date: February 27, 1973

In February 1973, during the live recording in Sydney, The Rolling Stones were riding high on the success of their album "Exile on Main St." which had been released earlier that year. This period marked a significant phase in the band's career, as they were transitioning into a more gritty and raw sound, which would define much of their work in the 1970s. The Sydney show is notable not just for the exhilarating live performance but also for showcasing Mick Jagger's vocal prowess, countering opinions about his declining voice at that point. At this time, the band was embarking on the "Exile" tour, reflecting their status as rock royalty and highlighting their ability to invigorate audiences globally. The combination of their extensive catalog and the energy of the live performances helped solidify the band's legendary reputation, rightfully earning them a place in music history.
