The Rolling Stones perform 'She's a Rainbow' for first time in 18 years
The Rolling Stones have embarked upon another tour and marked the event with a rare treat for fans: the first performance of their track "She's a Rainbow" in 18 years.
Ahead of the show in Chilean venue Estadio Nacional, the rockers asked fans via their website which track they'd like to see them play. The choices included "Anybody Seen My Baby", "She's So Cold" and "Like a Rolling Stone."
"She's a Rainbow" was the track that won out meaning the band performed it for the first time since 1998.
Incredibly, it's been reported that they've only ever played the song live a total of 11 times previous to this occasion. It originally featured on their 1967 album Their Satanic Majesties Request.
Mick Jagger has co-created new HBO series Vinyl alongside Martin Scorsese, Rich Cohen and Boardwalk Empire's Terence Winter. It stars Bobby Cannavale as a record executive in the Seventies music scene. The series begins 15 February in the UK, airing on Sky Atlantic.
