NEW YORK, Aug. 3 (UPI) -- The Rolling Stones' film "Rock and Roll Circus" is being prepared in New York for DVD release by ABKCO Records, Billboard reported Tuesday.
Though never broadcast, the December 1968 concert was filmed for a television special.
The movie features the Stones performing tunes that had just appeared on their "Beggars Banquet" album: "Parachute Woman," "No Expectations," "Sympathy for the Devil" and a giddy version of "Salt of the Earth."
The band also performed its current hit at the time, "Jumpin' Jack Flash" and premiered "You Can't Always Get What You Want," which would debut the following year on the album "Let It Bleed."
Blink Digital, an independent DVD-authoring facility in New York, is preparing the DVD, which ABKCO hopes to release in the fourth quarter. It will feature a surround-sound mix and bonus content, including never-released performances from the concert and contemporary commentary from participants.
