Mick Jagger - 1975

Mick Jagger, 1975, Baton Rouge
This image is from the start of the Rolling Stones Tour 1975.  It was the first show with Ron Wood and had two keyboard players, Billy Preston and Ian Stewart...The tour kicked off in Baton Rouge with two shows. I was on assignment for Circus Magazine...

Took about three weeks of working on and off with this image to get it back to a presentable state. It had lived in a storage locker for who knows how many years before making it's way back into the light - no pun intended...

Photograph made using a Nikon F Series camera with Ektachrome film. Scanned into the digital world with an Imacon/Hasselblad scanning device....

  1. I was at this show on the front row!! This was the evening show at LSU that opening night of the tour. It was very hot and very tight down front, but well worth the effort. It was more like a public rehearsal, as they tried out songs like "Luxury" and "Dance Little Sister" that they eventually dropped from the set list. I also remember Jagger playing some keyboards on "You Can't Always Get ..." Would love to see more photos of this, thanks for posting!
