With little else happening, at least from an artistic perspective, the Rolling Stones set off to tour the U.S. with new guitarist Ronnie Wood.

The band spent 1975 touring America, then spent a large chunk of 1976 touring Europe. A truckload of these shows were recorded for use as a potential live release, but disagreements and general dissatisfaction with the results left the band uncertain about what to do. For the first time since Mick Taylor joined (and quit), the band was revisiting some of its older classic material, but the results were unflattering.

After a time, it was decided that the band would fill three sides with excerpts from these shows, and a fourth side would be recorded at a small nightclub in Toronto called ‘El Mocambo’. The decision was significant in that it provided the only side of the album worth owning, but it also resulted in Keith being busted for possessing a full ounce of heroin. Such an amount meant that authorities had full intentions of charging him with trafficking, which meant Keith was looking at the real possibility of spending 20 years in the Canadian prison system.

While the system worked on Keith’s fate, “Love You Live” hit the stores.
