The Rolling Stones remixed, re-edited, and remastered “A Bigger Bang: Live On Copacabana Beach” is being released in multiple packages on July 9th, 2021.
The Stones played one of the biggest free concerts ever at Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro on February 8, 2006.
According to Blabbermouth the multiple packages include “DVD+2CD, SD BD+2CD, 2DVD+2CD Deluxe, 3LP (pressed on blue, yellow, and green vinyl), 3LP pressed on clear vinyl (exclusive to Sound Of Vinyl) and digital.
Additionally, Mercury Studios will release an early taste of this set with a five-song digital EP — out May 28. This will include “Sympathy For The Devil”, “Wild Horses”, “You Got Me Rocking”, “Happy” and “Rough Justice”. All the songs are from the Copacabana Beach show, with the exception of “Rough Justice”, which is from the 2005 Salt Lake City concert video available in the Deluxe Edition.
Finally, Mercury Studios will present THE ROLLING STONES’ “Rain Fall Down (Live On Copacabana Beach) / Rough Justice (Live In Salt Lake City)” — a limited-edition 10-inch picture disc to be released as part of the first Record Store Day Drops on June 12.”
“Not that we’re unused to playing some of the biggest shows in the world, but I must say Rio did take the cake,” said Keith Richards.
“‘It was amazing,” states Mick Jagger. “It was a really good audience. They know how to enjoy themselves on those occasions.”
