The film includes original music by The Rolling Stones. Songs include; ‘I Got the Blues’ from The Rolling Stones' ‘Sticky Fingers’. ‘Turd on the Run’ and ‘Shake Your Hips’ from ‘Exile on Main St.’ and ‘DJ Blues’ with Chris and Mick JaggerChris’ career has spanned many fields in the artistic spectrum, from clothes design and theatre to journalism. His first records were made during the 1970’s for David Geffen of Asylum in Los Angeles and he toured the USA and the UK. He revitalized his song writing in the late 1980’s after a long break and contributed to the Stones’ acclaimed albums “Dirty Work” and then later “Steel Wheels.”Chris decided to then concentrate on his own material and the result was the acclaimed ‘Atcha ’ in 1994, a mix of Cajun style with Chris’s individual brand of songwriting. Contributions came from David Gilmour [Pink Floyd] and Dave Stewart [Eurythmics] on ‘Lhasa Town’, and Leo Sayer. He made four more albums, including ‘The Ridge’ in 2009 a solo effort featuring Danny Thompson on double bass and John Etheridge on guitar, and Concertina Jack in 2013. In all Chris has written and recorded over a hundred titles.Chris Jagger tours regularly across Europe and the UK with his Acoustic Roots trio, and his band, playing in Spain, Germany, Switzerland, Denmark, France and Holland and has just returned from Australia and New Zealand. As his output and touring work shows, he is a versatile and creative talent; “All The Best” is a collection that has been carefully selected from across his work and the inclusion of the ‘I Got The Blues In Austin’ film makes this a truly compelling release.
