Book Synopsis The True Adventures of the Rolling Stones by : Stanley Booth
Download or read book The True Adventures of the Rolling Stones written by Stanley Booth and published by Chicago Review Press. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stanley Booth, a member of the Rolling Stones' inner circle, met the band just a few months before Brian Jones drowned in a swimming pool in 1968. He lived with them throughout their 1969 tour across the United States, staying up all night together listening to blues, talking about music, ingesting drugs, and consorting with groupies. His thrilling account culminates with their final concert at Altamont Speedway—a nightmare of beating, stabbing, and killing that would signal the end of a generation's dreams of peace and freedom. But while this book renders in fine detail the entire history of the Stones, paying special attention to the tragedy of Brian Jones, it is about much more than a writer and a rock band. It has been called—by Harold Brodkey and Robert Stone, among others—the best book ever written about the 1960s. In Booth's afterword, he finally explains why it took him 15 years to write the book, relating an astonishing story of drugs, jails, and disasters. Updated to include a foreword by Greil Marcus, this 30th anniversary edition is for Rolling Stones fans everywhere.
Book Synopsis Experiencing the Rolling Stones by : David Malvinni
Download or read book Experiencing the Rolling Stones written by David Malvinni and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-02-25 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than fifty years after their founding, the Rolling Stones still tour and create new music as the world’s quintessential rock band. David Malvinni’s Experiencing the Rolling Stones: A Listener’s Companion looks at the Stones’ music from the inside out. Along the journey, Malvinni places individual songs and entire albums within the transformative era of the ’60s, focusing on how the Rolling Stones integrated African American R&B, blues, and rock and roll into a uniquely British style. Vignettes describing what it was like to hear the Stones’ music at the time of its release thread their way through the book as Malvinni goes beyond the usual stories surrounding the Stone’s most significant songs. Tracing the distinctive sound that runs through their catalog, from chord progressions and open guitar tuning, to polyrhythmic Afro-Caribbean beats and their innovative use of nontraditional instruments, Malvinni shows how the Stones have retained their unmistakable identity through the decades. Experiencing the Rolling Stones draws together a broad swath of postwar history as it covers the band’s origins in Swinging London, their interest in the Beat generation, the powerful attraction of Morocco on their lives and music, the infamous drug busts that nearly destroyed the band, the female muses who inspired them, the disaster at Altamont, their flight from England as tax exiles, and the recording sessions outside of England. Malvinni takes an especially close look at Keith Richards’ guitar work and its effect on the band’s music, as well as the multiple changes in the band’s members, such as the addition of guitarists Mick Taylor and Ron Wood. Experiencing the Rolling Stones delivers a musical adventure for both the lifelong fan and the first-time listener just discovering the magnitude and magnificence of the Stones’ music, stardom, and legacy.

Book Synopsis Butterfly on a Wheel: The Great Rolling Stones Drugs Bust by : Simon Wells
Download or read book Butterfly on a Wheel: The Great Rolling Stones Drugs Bust written by Simon Wells and published by Omnibus Press. This book was released on 2012-01-19 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four pep pills, a Sunday tabloid, two celebrated rock stars and a court case. Butterfly on a Wheel: The Rolling Stones Great Drugs Bust documents how these ingredients came to form a huge slice of British social history; a watershed where attitudes to drugs prompted a seismic change in popular culture. When Keith Richards threw a drug-fuelled party at his West Sussex house in early 1967, it was never going to be an uneventful affair. The police broke in, dragged Keith Richards and Mick Jagger away in handcuffs, and a media frenzy erupted which pitted the hedonistic counterculture against the British Establishment. Using previously unpublished police and court documents, best-selling author Simon Wells reveals what really happened on the night of the raid and the extraordinary conspiracy mounted to end the careers of Jagger and Richards, with The Beatles soon to follow. Using fresh interviews with lawyers, police and eye witnesses to the notorious party, Wells reveals the truth about the celebrity pushers, London gangsters, bent cops, corrupt newspapers and dodgy politicians. This Omnibus enhanced edition includes an online media collection of television news footage, newspaper reports, interviews with Jagger, Richards and McCartney, as well as an interview with the author.

Book Synopsis Butterfly on a Wheel by : Simon Wells
Download or read book Butterfly on a Wheel written by Simon Wells and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Keith Richards threw a drug-fuelled party at his West Sussex house in early 1967, it was never going to be an uneventful affair. Mick Jagger and Marianne Faithfull were the star guests but the police came uninvited, so launching a legendary confrontation. The drugs bust spawned a media frenzy of salacious speculation and led to a famous summer trial that pitted the hedonistic poster boys of the counterculture against the British Establishment. It was intended as a high-profile show of strength from on high. As it happened, things turned out rather differently. Using previously unpublished police and court documents, best-selling author Simon Wells reveals what really happened on the night of the drugs raid as well as the extraordinary conspiracy mounted to end the careers of Jagger and Richards, and how the Establishment widened their net to drag in the Beatles and other rock stars. With fresh interviews with lawyers, police, eye witnesses and those present at the notorious party, Wells reveals the truth about the celebrity pushers, London gangsters, bent cops, corrupt newspapers and dodgy politicians.

Book excerpt: Ce livre est tout droit sorti du cœur des Rolling Stones. Voici à l'état brut leur propre récit d'une vie passée sur la route, à jouer ensemble soir après soir, défendant leur titre de " plus grand groupe de rock'n'roll du monde ". Depuis près de trente-cinq ans, la route est leur deuxième maison, c'est là que prend vie cette magie si particulière qui est la leur. Avec autant d'honnêteté que d'humour, les Stones racontent la montée d'adrénaline de la scène qui succède à l'interminable attente entre deux shows ; la façon dont ils s'accommodent du tourbillon des hôtels, des fans et des salles de spectacle ; et encore les contraintes physiques qu'impose le marathon de ces tournées mondiales. Un parcours rythmé par une généreuse dose de rock'n'roll. C'est un livre de contrastes où l'on passe de l'atmosphère confinée du Crawdaddy et du Marquee au gigantisme des stades des années 90, où le drame d'Altamont vient troubler les aventures d'une bande de potes londoniens qui sillonnent, entassés dans une camionnette, les petites routes de Grande-Bretagne, et où la camaraderie est parfois ponctuée de moments d'isolement et de solitude. Riche de photos extraites des archives personnelles des Stones et des témoignages de membres chevronnés de leur entourage, voici l'histoire d'un groupe de rock qui ne fait que ce qu'il aime, et qui le fait mieux que tout. Les Rolling Stones, une vie sur la route une épopée aussi excitante qu'on pouvait l'imaginer.

Book Synopsis Rock Criticism from the Beginning by : Ulf Lindberg
Download or read book Rock Criticism from the Beginning written by Ulf Lindberg and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2005 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rock Criticism from the Beginning is a wide-ranging exploration of the rise and development of rock criticism in Britain and the United States from the 1960s to the present. It chronicles the evolution of a new form of journalism, and the course by which writing on rock was transformed into a respected field of cultural production. The authors explore the establishment of magazines from Crawdaddy! and Rolling Stone to The Source, and from Melody Maker and New Musical Express to The Wire, while investigating the careers of well-known music critics like Robert Christgau, Greil Marcus, and Lester Bangs in the U.S., and Nik Cohn, Paul Morley, and Jon Savage in the U.K., to name just a few. While much has been written on the history of rock, this Bourdieu-inspired book is the first to offer a look at the coming of age of rock journalism, and the critics that opened up a whole new kind of discourse on popular music.
