as Mick Jagger was reputedly unhappy with the quality.
The circus acts were supplied by Sir Robert Fossett's circus, including
a fire-eater and trapeze artists.
There was, originally, a curious interlude involving Mick Jagger and Keith
Richard in a knife-throwing act.
It was subjected to post-production in the UK and USA between 1989 and
1995 and released as a 65 minute video in 1996 by ABKCO Films in the USA
For those of you who missed it, hard luck - it was on UK television on
