Stones Opened Vault For Documentary
The Rolling Stones gave director Brett Morgen unparalleled access to their vaults to compile the recent documentary, Crossfire Hurricane. The film, which is being released on DVD and Blu-ray on May 21st, commemorates the band's 50th anniversary features new audio interviews with Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts, Bill Wyman, Mick Taylor, and Ron Wood, interspersed with a dazzling display of rare and never-before seen Stones footage.
Morgen shed some light on the legendary Stones archives: "In a nondescript neighborhood in East London, the Rolling Stones have their archives and it's basically three buildings and each one's the size of a football field. And there they house, pretty much everything Stones-related, from all of their cars going back to the mid-'60s to every recording that the Stones have ever done. So, this is where you'll find the original quarter-inch reel-to-reel tapes for their sessions going back to the '60s, as well as all their wardrobe, and all their instruments. It's a dream come true for Stones fanatics."
