Shine a Light is the soundtrack to the Rolling Stones' concert film of the same name, directed by Martin Scorsese. It was released on 1 April 2008 in the UK by Polydor Records and one week later in the United States by Interscope Records. Double disc and single disc versions were issued.

History[edit]

Shine a Light is the 10th concert album released by the Rolling Stones. Like the two 2006 shows from which it was culled, it features no songs from their 2005 album A Bigger Bang. The two-disc version features all but two of the songs played on the two nights; the missing numbers are "Undercover of the Night" (included as a bonus track on the Japanese edition and as a download on iTunes Store) and "Honky Tonk Women".

Shine a Light features guest musicians Jack White on "Loving Cup", Christina Aguilera on "Live with Me" and Buddy Guy on "Champagne and Reefer".

The album was well-received, especially in the UK, where it debuted at No. 2, selling 23,013 copies in its first week[6] – the best chart position for a Rolling Stones concert album since Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out! in 1970. In the United States, it debuted at No. 11[citation needed] on the Billboard charts with 37,117 copies sold[citation needed] – the band's highest US debut for a concert album since 1995's Stripped.[citation needed]

Reception[edit]

"Maybe they've been fired up by Scorsese's fan worship, or it's simple professional pride," wrote Mark BlakeinQ, "but everyone seems to have raised their game. In an era when a Rolling Stones live show can sometimes become a pantomime, Shine a Light is closer to a proper rock 'n' roll circus."[3]

"Buddy Guy was incredible," remarked Charlie Watts. "Jack White was great. And I thought Christina Aguilera was amazing, because often those girls freeze when they dance with Mick. We've had some great people – including our dear Amy [Winehouse], although I don't think she was quite well – who were never as good as Christina."[7]

Track listing[edit]

All songs by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, except where noted.
