Rolling Stones Expand Classic Tour Film

09/19/2012
. (hennemusic) The Rolling Stones will premiere an expanded version of their 1965 tour film, "Charlie Is My Darling � Ireland '65," at the 50th New York Film Festival later this month.

In 1965, Stones manager Andrew Loog Oldham asked filmmaker Peter Whitehead (The Fall, Tonite Let's All Make Love in London) to accompany the band on a quick tour of Ireland. Whitehead was astonished...not only by the incredible power of the Stones' performances, but especially by the raw energy of the crowds of young people that rushed them everywhere.

This new version of this behind-the scenes diary of the early Stones has never been seen; Mick Gochanour and Robin Klein, the team that brought The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus to the screen, have painstakingly restored over 90,000 frames of optical screen prints and negative, going back to the original sound tapes and 3-track live recordings. more on this story
