Then we have "Tumbling Dice" in a 1995 live performance.It's got to be one of The Rolling Stone's hottest videos,from the yellow-orange lighting to backup singer Lisa Fischer grinding her hips.
"Tumbling Dice" is from what many considered the Stones' greatest LP,the double album "Exile On Main Street"(1972,remastered and re-released with 10 additional songs in 2010).Produced by Jimmy Miller with engineers Glyn and Andy Johns,the tracks were recorded from June 1969 to March 1972 in London;Nellcote,France;and Los Angeles.In 2010,ten extra tracks were discovered in the vault and the Stones decided to release them along with the re-mastered original tracks.
Mick Jagger re-recorded the lead vocals for most of the rediscovered tracks in Los Angeles in 2010,and Mick Taylor added a guitar part.Backup singers Lisa Fischer and Cindy Mizelle also worked on the extra tracks.So we can say this massive,critically acclaimed album was actually recorded over many decades,from 1969-2010.The 2010 version of "Exile On Main Street" reached number 1 in Britian and number 2 on the US charts.*
