The Rolling Stones

The live recording from November 30, 1980, at the Hampton Coliseum captures The Rolling Stones during a significant phase in their career, shortly after the release of their album "Emotional Rescue," which came out in June 1980. This period marked a resurgence for the band, as they were revitalizing their sound and image post the disbandment of key members in previous years. Additionally, the 1981 live release showcases the Stones as they toured to promote "Emotional Rescue," highlighting their enduring appeal and ability to energize live audiences. An interesting fact about this performance is that it featured several classic hits along with newer material, illustrating their versatile setlist and commitment to engaging fans with a mix of nostalgia and contemporary rock. The concert also underscored their reputation as dynamic live performers, a hallmark that has long defined their legacy in rock music.
