[edit] Overview
The album recorded during their 1973 European Tour.[1], promoting their latest album Goats Head Soup.
In 1973, The Stones were prohibited on the French territory, because of drugs affairs that struck the band, especially during summer 1971, while they were recording one of their masterpieces, the album Exile on Main St.. The French government made a proscription and they couldn't play live as part of their European Tour 1973. They decided to organise a concert in Bruxelles, in October for the French audience, with the help of RTL radio station, which chartered a bus for the fans to reach Bruxelles.
