Academy Award-winning filmmaker Martin Scorsese and the world’s greatest rock n’ roll band, THE ROLLING STONES, unite to bring audiences the year’s most extraordinary film event, Shine A Light. With special appearances by Christina Aguilera, Jack White and Buddy Guy, and four additional Rolling Stones performances not seen in theaters.
Directed by Martin Scorsese and documenting two 2006 performances that took place during the band's A Bigger Bang tour (New York City's Beacon Theater on October 29 and November 1, 2006). It also includes archive footage from the band's career. The film takes its title from the song of the same name, featured on the band's 1972 album "Exile on Main St". A soundtrack album was released in April 2008 on the Universal label.
The concert footage is preceded by a brief semi-fictionalised introduction about the preparations for the shows, and is intercut with historical news clips and archival interviews with band members. The shows, which were added to the tour schedule for the purposes of the film shoot, featured a different set list than was typical of other shows on the tour (see below). Musicians Jack White, Buddy Guy and Christina Aguilera also perform with the band.
SHINE A LIGHT was initially scheduled for release on September 21, 2007, but Paramount Classics postponed it until April 2008. The world premiere was at the 58th Berlin International Film Festival on February 7, 2008.
Most of the performance footage was culled from the second night of filming. All songs are written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, except the ones noted.
1. Jumpin' Jack Flash
2. Shattered
3. She Was Hot
4. All Down the Line
5. Loving Cup - with Jack White
6. As Tears Go By (Jagger/Richards/Oldham)
7. Some Girls
8. Just My Imagination (Norman Whitfield/Barrett Strong)
9. Far Away Eyes
10. Champagne & Reefer (Muddy Waters) - with Buddy Guy
11. Tumbling Dice
* Band introductions *
12. You Got the Silver - lead vocal by Keith Richards
13. Connection (incomplete/cut with 1999 interview clips) - lead vocal by Keith Richards
14. Sympathy for the Devil
15. Live with Me - with Christina Aguilera
16. Start Me Up
17. Brown Sugar
18. (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction
19. Shine a Light (incomplete; audio only)
Additional acoustic instrumental numbers are also played during the closing credits:
* Wild Horses
* Only Found Out Yesterday (Richards)
Noting Martin Scorsese's frequent use of Rolling Stones music in his scripted movies, Mick Jagger has joked that Shine a Light may be the only Scorsese film that does not include "Gimme Shelter" in its soundtrack.
