The Rolling Stones have released GRRR Live!, a live hits album recorded in 2012 during their 50th anniversary tour. The album arrived on Feb. 10, 2023, via Mercury Studios, in various formats; 3-LP, 2-CD, DVD + 2-CD, and Blu-ray + 2-CD. The Blu-ray and digital versions include Dolby Atmos.

The album features such classic rock favorites as “Honky Tonk Women,” “Gimme Shelter,” “Sympathy For the Devil” and “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction.” Watch the official trailer and watch/listen to many of the live performances below.

From the Nov. 30 announcement: The Rolling Stones celebrated their golden anniversary in 2012 and 2013 by embarking on the 50 & Counting Tour, a 30-show itinerary for North America and Europe. On Dec. 15, 2012, the band took the stage at Newark, New Jersey’s Prudential Center for the final of four shows in the New York area. Featuring guest appearances by Mick Taylor (“Midnight Rambler”), The Black Keys (“Who Do You Love?”), Gary Clark Jr and John Mayer (“Going Down”), Lady Gaga (“Gimme Shelter”), and hometown hero Bruce Springsteen (“Tumbling Dice”), the concert proved to be one of the most memorable shows in the band’s history.

Since its original airing on pay-per-view in 2012, this show has not been available since. (The concert has been re-edited and the audio has been remixed.) Three songs from the Dec. 13 show (also in Newark) will be available as bonus features on the DVD and Blu-ray: “Respectable” (with John Mayer), “Around And Around,” and “Gimme Shelter.”
