In 2008, when "Shattered" was performed live, The Rolling Stones were riding high on their long-established legacy in rock music. The band had recently released their studio album "A Bigger Bang" in September 2005, which included hits that revitalized their sound while reflecting their enduring presence in the industry. The live performance featured in the video is part of Martin Scorsese's concert film "Shine a Light," which captures the band during their 2006 North American tour, showcasing their dynamic stage presence and ability to engage audiences even in the later stages of their career. An interesting fact is that "Shine a Light" not only highlights their musical prowess but also offers an intimate look at their history and relationships, featuring guest appearances from musicians like Jack White and Buddy Guy. This blend of new and classic material at this point in their career reaffirmed their status as rock legends.
