Back in 1975, the Stones held a press conference in New York City to announce their upcoming tour. The band surprised the crowd of waiting reporters by playing "Brown Sugar" on the back of a flatbed truck in the middle of Manhattan traffic, a strategy Charlie Watts borrowed from New Orleans jazz bands who used to promote upcoming dates this way. This image celebrates that historic moment in rock and roll history.
