Rolling Stones - Perform 'Start Me Up' Live at Meadowlands Sports Complex

Venue: Brendan Byrne Arena Location: East Rutherford, New Jersey, United States Date: November 5, 1981

The live recording of "Start Me Up" by The Rolling Stones took place on November 5, 1981, during their American Tour. This concert was part of a larger promotional campaign for their album "Tattoo You," which had been released just a few months earlier, in August 1981. This album marked a significant moment in their career as it featured some of their most enduring hits, helping to rejuvenate their popularity in the early '80s. Interestingly, "Start Me Up" became one of their signature songs and was widely associated with the launch of the Windows 95 operating system in 1995, which helped introduce the band to a new generation. The performance captured in the video showcases the band's high energy and enduring stage presence, solidifying their reputation as rock legends during this pinnacle point in their career.
