- The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus is a film released in 1996 of a December 11, 1968 event put together by The Rolling Stones. The event comprised two concerts on a circus stage and included such acts as Eric Clapton, The Who, Taj Mahal, Marianne Faithfull, and Jethro Tull. John Lennon and his fiancee Yoko Ono performed as part of a supergroup called The Dirty Mac, along with Eric Clapton, Mitch Mitchell, and Keith Richards. It was originally meant to be aired on the BBC, but the Rolling Stones withheld it because they were unhappy with their performance. The Stones contended that they withheld the film's release due to their substandard performance, because they had taken the stage early in the morning and were clearly exhausted. Many others believe that the true reason for not releasing the video was that The Who, who were fresh off a concert tour, upstaged the Stones on their own production. The Stones had not toured recently, and were not in top playing condition, as The Who were. At one point, Stones manager Allen Klein apparently considered re-editing the footage in an attempt to sell it to The Who as The Who's Rock and Roll Circus featuring The Rolling Stones, such was their far superior performance. This however never became more than an idea and thus never saw the light of day. The project was originally conceived by Mick Jagger as a way of branching out from conventional records and concert performances. Jagger approached Michael Lindsay-Hogg, who had directed two promos for Stones songs, to make a full-length TV show for them. According to Lindsay-Hogg, the idea of combining rock music and a circus setting came to him when he was trying to come up with ideas; he drew a circle on a piece of paper and free-associated. The Stones and their guests performed in a replica of a seedy big top on a British sound stage, in front of an invited audience. The performances began at around 2 p.m. on December 11, 1968, but setting up between acts took longer than planned and the cameras kept breaking down, which meant that the final performances took place at almost 5 o'clock the next morning. By that time the audience and most of the Stones were exhausted; Jagger's sheer stamina managed to keep them going until the end. Jagger was reportedly so disappointed with his and the band's performance that he cancelled the airing of the film, and kept it from public view. This was the last public performance of Brian Jones with The Rolling Stones, and for much of the Stones performance he is inaudible, although his slide guitar on "No Expectations" remains clear. Some of the footage of the concert was thought to be lost until 1989 when it was found in a trash can in a cellar. A significant segment of footage of The Who from the production was actually shown theatrically in the documentary The Kids Are Alright (1979), the only public viewing of the film until its eventual release. The Stones' film was restored and finally released on CD and video in 1996. Included on the recordings are the introductions for each act, including some entertaining banter between Jagger and Lennon, expressing mutual friendship and admiration. This concert is the only footage of Black Sabbath guitarist Tony Iommi performing as a member of Jethro Tull; he was a member for this show only as a favor to Anderson while they looked for a replacement for Mick Abrahams. The band mimed to the album version of "A Song for Jeffrey" and 'Fat Man' as the Stones told them to cut their time down and it would save time on rehearsing," Fat Man' never made the final release . This footage also included some of Ian Anderson's first attempts of his now famous flute-playing position, with one leg in the air. In 2004, a remastered DVD was released, with audio remixed into Dolby Surround. The DVD includes footage of the show, along with extra features which include previously "lost" performances, an interview with Pete Townshend, and three audio commentaries. Of particular interest in the Townshend interview is his description of the genesis of the Circus project, which he claims was initially meant to involve the performers travelling across the United States via train. (A concert concept used for a short concert series in Canada that was later documented in the feature film Festival Express). The remastered DVD also includes a special four-camera view of Dirty Mac's performance of The Beatles' "Yer Blues" (showing Ono kneeling on the floor in front of the musicians, completely covered in a black sheet). According to Bill Wyman's book, the Stones also performed "Confessing the Blues", "Route 66" and an alternate take of "Sympathy for the Devil" with Brian Jones on guitar.

- The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus on The Rolling Stonesin konserttielokuva vuodelta 1968. Konsertista julkaistiin CD ja video vuonna 1996 ja DVD vuonna 2004. The Rolling Stonesin etsiessä uutta tapaa mainostaa heidän vasta ilmestynyttä albumiaan Beggars Banquet Mick Jagger keksi idean sirkusteeman ympärille rakentuvasta konsertista, joka esitettäisiin TV:ssä. He kutsuivat myös vieraita esiintymään, joihin kuului mm. John Lennon, The Who, Eric Clapton, Taj Mahal, Jethro Tull ja Marianne Faithfull (Jaggerin silloinen tyttöystävä). Pelkästään tätä tilaisuutta varten Lennon, Clapton, Keith Richards ja Mitch Mitchell muodostivat kokoonpanon The Dirty Mac. Konsertti esitettiin kutsuyleisön edessä TV-studiossa sirkustelttaa matkivissa lavasteissa. Konsertti alkoi 11. joulukuuta noin klo. 14, mutta esitysten välit veivät suunniteltua enemmän aikaa ja kamerat menivät jatkuvasti epäkuntoon, jonka seurauksena viimeinen esitys tapahtui vasta seuraavana aamuna lähes klo. 5. Siihen mennessä yleisö ja The Rolling Stonesin jäsenet Jaggeria lukuun ottamatta alkoivat näyttää uupuneilta. Mick Jagger ei ollut The Rolling Stonesin esiintymiseen tyytyväinen verrattuna erityisesti The Whon ja The Dirty Macin esiintymiseen. Tämän seurauksena yhtye hyllytti projektin aikomuksenaan työskennellä sen parissa myöhemmin, mutta Brian Jonesin kuolema heinäkuussa 1969 peruutti suunnitelmat. Konsertti oli ensimmäinen suurempi Jethro Tullille ja ainoa Tony Iommin kanssa (tosin ainoastaan Ian Anderson äänitettiin livenä). Se oli ensimmäisiä kertoja kun The Who esitti rock-oopperan livenä. Lennon esiintyi ensimmäistä kertaa ilman The Beatlesia ja ensimmäistä kertaa livenä sitten vuoden 1966 Candlestick Parkin konsertin San Franciscossa. Konsertti oli myös viimeinen Brian Jonesin virallinen esiintyminen ja siten myös viimeinen missä The Rolling Stones esiintyi alkuperäisessä kokoonpanossaan.
- The Rock and Roll Circus est un film conçu par Michael Lindsay-Hogg et Mick Jagger. Enregistré le 11 décembre 1968 pour la BBC, il n'a jamais été diffusé à la demande des Rolling Stones et ce pour des raisons qui demeurent toujours plus ou moins mystérieuses. Après que les enregistrements ont longtemps circulé en bootleg, il est finalement sorti en CD et VHS 1996 sous le titre The Rolling Stones Rock'n'Roll Circus, tandis que des extraits, comme le A Quick One While He's Away des Who ont été visibles bien des années plus tôt.
- ロックン・ロール・サーカス(The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus)は、1968年に収録されたローリング・ストーンズの伝説的作品、しかし放映されることなく長年お蔵入りになっていた。1996年になってVHSビデオでリリースされ、初めて公に公開された。エリック・クラプトン、ジョン・レノン、ザ・フーなど豪華なゲストが出演している。お蔵入りになっていた理由は、「ストーンズが自分たちの演奏に満足していなかったから」と言われており、完全燃焼には至っていない。もう一つは「ザ・フーの演奏が良すぎた、盛り上がりすぎた」という理由。当時のストーンズは、ブライアン・ジョーンズが脱退直前の時期で、ゴタゴタがあった。一方、ザ・フーは良いコンディションでミニロックオペラ「クイック・ワン」を演奏、ショーを大いに盛り上げた。そのため、当時ミック・ジャガーは「ザ・フーの演奏がカッコよすぎてストーンズと比較されるから発売しないでほしい」と発言。ザ・フーの演奏が終わった瞬間、このショーはもはや「The Whoのロックンロールサーカス」となってしまったと言われた。 ジョン・レノンはこのショーの為にバンド「ザ・ダーティー・マック」を結成。メンバーはジョン・レノン(ボーカル&ギター)、キース・リチャーズ(ベース)、エリック・クラプトン(ギター)、ミッチ・ミッチェル(ドラムス)と、ビートルズ、ローリング・ストーンズ、クリーム、ジミ・ヘンドリックス・エクスペリエンスのメンバーによるスーパー・バンドになった。ストーンズのベーシスト、ビル・ワイマンは「キースはこのバンドに参加したくて、(すでにギタリストが2人いるので)ベースとして参加するために俺を追い出したんだ」と語っている。 DVD編には特典がいくつか用意されている。たとえば、新たに追加されたタジ・マハールの3曲、ジュリアス・カッチェンによる素敵なクラシック・ピアノ演奏、「Yer Blues」の4分割画面バージョンなど。ザ・フーのピート・タウンゼントとの新しいインタビュー、それにDVD化にあたって追加された各種の音声解説など。
- The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus er en konsertfilm initiert og organisert av The Rolling Stones. Filmen ble til under to spillesesjoner den 11.-12. desember 1968. Opptakene som filmen er satt sammen av ble gjort på en sirkusscene i Middlesex, London. Ved siden av The Rolling Stones selv, med støtte av Nicky Hopkins på piano, tok artister som The Who, Taj Mahal med Jesse Ed Davis, Marianne Faithfull, Jethro Tull og The Dirty Mac del i konserten. The Dirty Mac var en slags forløper for The Plastic Ono Band, men her hadde John Lennon (sang og gitar) for anledningen satt sammen en supergruppe, som var ment som en vittig sidekommentar til bluesgitarbandet Fleetwood Mac. Forut John besto bandet av Eric Clapton (gitar), Mitch Mitchell (trommer) og Keith Richards (bass). De fremførte først «Yer Blues», og dernest «A Whole Lotta Yoko» sammen med Yoko Ono (sang) og Ivry Gitlis (fiolin). I tillegg finnes som ekstrastoff på DVDen et firekameras parallellopptak av The Dirty Mac mens de leverer en prøve på «Yer Blues». (Se nedenfor). Bill Wyman har videre fortalt at John Lennon og Eric Clapton, under prøvene dagen før satte i gang en jamsession over gamle rockelåter, hvor Mick Jagger kom inn som vokalist. I tillegg til disse var også Johnny Cash invitert til å opptre, og Anita Pallenberg hadde lovet å stille som bebartet kvinne, men ingen av dem dukket opp. Heller ikke The Isley Brothers eller Traffic fikk anlednig til å komme.
