Let´s Spend The Night Together


Let´s Spend The Night Together
(aka. Rocks Off, Time Is On Our Side)
Directed by: Hal Ashby
Running Time: 95 min   Color   Date: 1981

Let's Spend the Night Together was the live concert film, documenting The Rolling Stones' 1981 North American Tour that somehow made the Rolling Stones the biggest stadium band from 1981 onwards, but in terms of performance, it's quite
boring, and the film itself, is a straightforward retelling of two separate US tour concerts edited together.
Premiered in cinemas around the world in 1982 and 1983

Let's Spend the Night Together is the Stones after they reached legendary status, with their venues and production values bigger and slicker but the quality is stale and forced, making it almost a parody of themselves. Ashby results are as exciting and eye-catching as must have been intended. Filmed at the Meadowlands Sports Complex in East Rutherford, New Jersey, November, 5/6, 1981 and at the Sun Devil Stadium in Tempe, Arizona, December, 13, 1981. It was released in some countries as Holland, Italy, New Zealand and Australia with the alternative title Time Is On Our Side (with backstage footage cut in). The film was released as Rocks Off in Germany in 1982 with slightly different footage and the additional song "When the Whip Comes Down" (following "Under My Thumb") from Sun Devil Stadium.

  1. Under My Thumb (Tempe, Arizona) 13.12.81)
