Giveaway: The Rolling Stones Live in 1975 and 1981 CD/DVD Sets

By the mid '70s, the Rolling Stones were easing into their second decade, something that was uncharted territory for the still somewhat relatively nascent genre of rock and roll. The Beatles had been toast for years, most of their British Invasion counterparts had fallen off the map, and Elvis only had a few years left on the planet. Prog had grabbed a chunk of the rock audience, disco captured the minds of the more dance-oriented, and punk and hip-hop were inbound. But the Stones were still chugging along with albums like Goats Head Soup and It's Only Rock 'n' Roll and continuing to tour extensively. They'd have mixed success with some records in this era, then surge at the end of the decade and the start of the next with Some Girls and Tattoo You.

This month a pair of live sets from this era, branded as "From the Vault," are being issued by Eagle Rock: one is a show from the L.A. Forum in 1975, the other from Virginia in 1981, and AllMusic is going to give two of our readers both sets. Keep reading to find out how to enter for a chance to win.
