The Rolling Stones – “Crossfire Hurricane”, just released on DVD and Blu-Ray, is the kaleidoscopic new film that documents the key periods of the Rolling Stones’ career and their incredible journey Directed by Brett Morgen, Crossfire Hurricane provides a new perspective on the Stones’ journey from blues-obsessed teenagers in the early 60’s to rock royalty. It’s all here in panoramic candor, from the Marquee Club to Hyde Park, from Altamont to Exile, from club gigs to stadium extravaganzas. With never-seen footage and fresh insights from the band themselves, the film will please longtime devotees, as well as a new generation of fans.
As befits the first rock band to reach the 50-year milestone, the film combines extensive historical footage, much of it widely unseen, with contemporary commentaries by Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts,Ronnie Wood and former Stones Bill Wyman and Mick Taylor. Period interviews, extensive live performance material and news archives are included as well.
Watch the trailer:
Bonus features on the DVD and Blu-Ray include previously unreleased concert footage – “Live in Germany ‘65”, NME Poll Winners concert footage from 1964 and 1965, a new interview with director Brett Morgen, “The Sound and Music of Crossfire Hurricane”, footage from The Arthur Haynes Show (1964), and the theatrical trailer.
Crossfire Hurricane received its worldwide premiere at the London Film Festival in October, where Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood all hit the red carpet to the delight of fans and media from all around the world. The film received a similar premiere in the U.S. the following month, hosted by HBO at the Ziegfeld Theatre.
Asked in a formative interview in the film what it is that sets them apart from other groups, Jagger says with quiet understatement: “A chemical reaction seems to have happened.” Keith Richards added, “You can’t really stop the Rolling Stones, you know when that sort of avalanche is facing you, you just get out of the way.”

She’s a Rainbow. My father used to work 2 jobs and only be home at my bed time one night a week. On that one night every week he would sing me that song before bed. Great memory.
Love the Stones! My favorite song is Brown Sugar. I just want to have a beer and dance when I hear it!
It has to be “Paint it Black”. After hearing it when I was a kid, guitar playing became an obsession of mine. God Bless The Rolling Stones!!!!
