This was the Stones first tour with new guitarist Ronnie Wood, after Mick Taylor left the band. The Stones, with their usual act freshly aided by theatrical stage props including a giant inflatable phallus (nicknamed 'Tired Grandfather' by the band, since it sometimes malfunctioned) and, at the Chicago shows, an unfolding lotus flower-shaped stage that Charlie Watts had conceived.

The band was composed of Mick Jagger - vocals, guitar, harmonica, Keith Richards - guitar, vocals, Bill Wyman - bass guitar, and Charlie Watts - drums, percussion.

Additional musicians included: Ronnie Wood - guitar, backing vocals, Ian Stewart - piano, Billy Preston - keyboards, vocals and Ollie Brown - percussion.
