The two shows that The Stones give at the theater in New York in October and November 2006 are captured by film director Martin Scorsese, known for crime classics such as Goodfellas, The Departed on The Wolf of Wall Street.
For the American filmmaker, a dream comes true when he can capture the performance of the rockers. Scorsese is known as a huge fan of The Rolling Stones. This is how he uses Gimme Shelter in Goodfellas, Casino on The Departed. The performances at the Beacon Theater ultimately form the basis for the film Shine A Light, which will be published in 2008.
Movie full of guest appearances
During this Shine A Lightperformances, The Rolling Stones enlist the help of musician friends. For example, contemporary and blues legend Buddy Guy can participate in a performance of Muddy Waters track Champagne and Reefer. In addition, Christina Aguilera participates on Live With Me.
One of the most memorable moments of the evenings is the guest appearance of Jack White. The White Stripes frontman, who isn’t normally known for his jolly stage presence, is visibly enjoying himself during the live performance of Loving Cup.
