In 1962 Mick Jagger was a bright, well-scrubbed boy (planning a
career in the civil service), while Keith Richards was learning how
to smoke and to swivel a six-shooter. Add the mercurial Brian Jones
(who'd been effectively run out of Cheltenham for theft, multiple
impregnations and playing blues guitar) and the wryly opinionated
Bill Wyman and Charlie Watts, and the potential was obvious. During
the 1960s and 70s the Rolling Stones were the polarising figures in
Britain, admired in some quarters for their flamboyance, creativity
and salacious lifestyles, and reviled elsewhere for the same
reasons. Confidently expected never to reach 30 they are now
approaching their seventies and, in 2012, will have been together
for 50 years. In The Rolling Stones, Christopher Sandford tells
thehuman drama at the centre of the Rolling Stones story. Sandford
has carried out interviews with those close to the Stones, family
members (including Mick's parents), the group's fans and
contemporaries - even examined their previously unreleased FBI
files. Like no other book before The Rolling Stoneswill make sense
of the rich brew of clever invention and opportunism, of talent,
good fortune, insecurity, self-destructiveness, and of drugs, sex
and other excess, that made the Stones who they are.
