“I would hate to come out with something that’s not startling,” Mick Jagger said about the launch of the 1989/90 Steel Wheels Tour in a statement.
Steel Wheels Live will come in a variety of mediums including a limited 180gm 4LP colored vinyl, DVD + 2CD, SD Blu-ray + 2CD as well as digitally. The set will also include a DVD from the Japan Dome as well as Steel Wheels Rare Reels — a CD that contains songs that aren’t in the Rolling Stones’ usual setlist.
Aside from the special edition restored, remixed and remastered set, they’ll also be dropping a double A-sided 10″ picture disc of Rock and a Hard Place” (Live from Atlantic City) and “Almost Hear You Sigh” (Live from Tokyo Dome) on Record Store Day’s fall date (Sept. 26).
