The Rolling Stones went way back to 1990 to dust off ‘Harlem Shuffle’ for New Jersey this week.

The Stones played their second show in Rutherford, New Jersey and the old 1963 Bob & Earl song they covered on their 1986 ‘Dirty Work’ album popped up for the first time sine 25 August 1990 in London.

The Stones performed the track regularly in 1989 and 1990 on the Urban Jungle tour.

Tokyo 1990

‘Harlem Shuffle’ was a no 6 hit for The Rolling Stones in Australia and reached no 13 in the USA.
