The Rolling Stones - 'Beast Of Burden' Live Performance at The Wiltern
In January 2002, when The Rolling Stones performed "Beast of Burden" live at The Wiltern in Los Angeles, the band was in a dynamic phase of their career, having recently released the studio album "Bridges to Babylon" in 1997. Their live performances during this period showcased a blend of classic hits and newer material, reaffirming their legendary status in rock music. The band was also celebrating their continued relevance and success, especially after their substantial tours in the late 1990s and the early 2000s. Interestingly, this concert was part of the "Licks Tour," which commemorated their 40th anniversary, emphasizing their enduring appeal and ability to connect with audiences across generations. The energy and performance captured in this live recording exemplified the band's commitment to live music and their status as one of the greatest rock bands in history.
