Cocksucker Blues is an unreleased documentary film directed by Robert Frank chronicling The Rolling Stones' North America tour in 1972 in support of their album Exile on Main Street.

The tour fulfilled its promise of tremendous rock and roll performances on stage. Behind the scenes, the tour embodied debauchery, lewdness and hedonism.
The film was shot cinéma vérité, with several cameras with plenty of film left lying around for anyone in the entourage to pick up and start shooting. This allowed the film's audience to witness backstage parties, drug use, roadie antics, fey artists and the Stones with their defenses down.
