Rolling Stones '75 Tour Street Belt with Removable Buckle
Tour of the Americas '75 was not tied to support of any newly released material, as it began more than seven months after the release of their last studio album at the time, It's Only Rock'n Roll; therefore the compilation album Made in the Shade was released to capitalize on the tour's publicity.
The announcement of the tour became famous in itself.
At a 1 May 'press conference' in Manhattan, the band surprised the throng of waiting reporters by ignoring them and driving down Broadway, playing "Brown Sugar" on the back of a flatbed truck in the middle of New York traffic, a gimmick that groups such as AC/DC and U2 would emulate in years to come.
