About this book
In 2002 the Stones celebrate their 40th anniversary. Their story - the bands rise the Marianne Faithfull Brian Jones and Altamont scandals the groundbreaking hits - is the stuff of twentieth century legend and core to popular culture. But as always Normans skills as a researcher and biographer bring a whole new dimension to such a story. Written with a personal knowledge and the trust of the participants this fully updated version includes the Jerry Hall/Mick Jagger split and the stones lives as tax exiles. "The Stones are lucky to have found a biographer of Philip Normans class" - Pete Townshend. "An elegiac book a record of evanescence as much as of durability and it reminds us of an epoch that threw up lions with no more energy than it threw out losers" - "The Times".
