The Rolling Stones / Some Girls Super Deluxe Edition & Live in Texas Blu-ray
The Rolling Stones are to release on November 21, 2011 a re-mastered, expanded, Super Deluxe, Deluxe and Digital editions of Some Girls, the chart-topping album from 1978.
This reissue follows in the footsteps of the Exile on Main Street reissue from 2010 and will include some undiscovered gems that have recently been unearthed from the Rolling Stones vaults by producer Don Was. There are rumoured to be around 10 bonus tracks.
The Super Deluxe Edition of Some Girls will feature 2 CDs, a DVD and a Vinyl LP (exact content TBC). It will also include a previously unseen Helmut Newton photo session from 1978, an essay by author and journalist Anthony DeCurtis putting the album in its cultural context, and a 7” single of Beast Of Burden/When The Whip Comes Down in its banned sleeve.
On the same date a DVD and Blu-Ray release of Some Girls Live in Texas 1978 will be released.
Capturing The Rolling Stones at their live best, with fully restored picture and sound quality, Some Girls Live in Texas 1978 was filmed at the Will Rogers Memorial Centre in Forth Worth, Texas on 18 July 1978.
It will be available on four different formats: DVD, Blu-Ray plus special edition DVD + CD and Blu-Ray + CD digipack presentations including a reproduction tour programme. Bonus features on all formats will include a new interview with Mick Jagger.
Originally shot on 16mm film, the concert footage has been carefully restored with the sound remixed and remastered by Bob Clearmountain from the original multi track tapes.
