The Stones

In 2012 the Rolling Stones celebrate their 50th anniversary. Their story - the band's meteoric rise to fame, the Marianne Faithfull, Brian Jones and Altamont scandals, the groundbreaking hits - is the stuff of twentieth century legend, and core to popular culture. But it is Norman's skills as a researcher and biographer which bring a whole new dimension to such a story. Written with the personal knowledge, trust and co-operation of the participants, this fully updated version is indisputably the best book on The Stones ever written. Norman spares no detail, covering the Jerry Hall/Mick Jagger split and the Stones' lives as tax exiles, the recording of Exile on Main St. as well as the iconic stage performances, Mick's control of the band's affairs and his contractual disputes with managers and promoters. This a story of fame, money, drugs, booze, sex, hedonism and the greatest rock band of all time.… (mais)

And here it is, my last review of 2017, and my 190th book of the year. Woo-hoo!

Norman brings the same meticulous researching and writing ability to this history of the Rolling Stones as he'd previously done in his excellent history of the Beatles, in SHOUT.

While you learn so much about Jagger, Richard, Jones, Wyman, Taylor, and Woods, as well as the various girlfriends, managers, hangers-on, and anyone else used and abused and left in their wake, I think the one that stands out by his almost conspicuous absence, like the black hole that influences the movement of the bodies around it, is Charlie Watts.

Charlie's just a calm, cool, centred guy that never seemed to fall into any of the shenanigans, quietly showed up, worked his magic, then quietly moved off again.

The Stones are an amazing band, but Charlie? Charlie's one of a kind, to have survived in the eye of that particular hurricane for more than 50 years. ( )

An autobiography of the greatest rock and roll band in the world, charting their conception, their rise to fame, and their notoriety. It details the good times and bad times, and is a solid, interesting read for fans of the group. ( )
