The Rolling Stones kicked off their "Sixty Tour" in Madrid this week by dusting off one of their songs from the '60s that they had never before played live.
"Out of Time," a tune from the Stones' British version of 1966's Aftermath album, got its concert debut at Metropolitano Stadium in Spain on Wednesday (June 1).
"Apparently, you can teach an old Stones new tricks," Deadline said of the deep cut's emergence. However, it remains to be seen whether the classic rock band will uncover further neglected live material as the tour progresses,
"Out of Time," while not an official single from 1996's Aftermath, nonetheless received airplay alongside the album's hits such as "Paint It Black" and "Mother's Little Helper." A popular version of "Out of Time" was released the same year by solo artist Chris Farlowe.
The "Sixty Tour" takes over where the Rolling Stones "No Filter Tour" left off. During 2021's North American "No Filter" leg, Stones singer Mick Jagger reportedly visited a bar incognito in Charlotte, N.C. Longtime Stones drummer Charlie Watts died last year.
Still, "The Stones just keep on rolling!" as a press release explained in March. "We are thrilled to announce the Rolling Stones 2022 Tour! Titled SIXTY to celebrate 60 special years together, [the band] will be playing dates across Europe this summer, including two shows at London's BST Hyde Park."
