"The Rolling Stones are a living rock legend. The band is 30 years old, and Mick Jagger, who shaped their appearance from the beginning, is 50. And yet the "Bad Boys of Rock" exert a tremendous fascination on the audience as always. The reasons are clear: for an entire generation, they symbolize the rebellion against society; and like no other band, they have managed to keep their unmistakable sound despite all musical currents and still develop artistically. Stephen Barnard tells the story of the band, which has been marked by successes and scandals, internal quarrels and external hostility, and describes how the great songs were created and worked in their time. Around 250 impressive, sometimes sensational photos make this book stand out from everything that has been published so far about the Rolling Stories. That's why Stone's bass guitarist Bill Wyman calls the book the "most beautiful illustrated book ever compiled about us". See less
