Stones by Philip Norman
In 2002 the Stones celebrate their 40th anniversary. Their story - the band's 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, Norman's 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 Norman's 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
Philip Norman is widely acclaimed as a chronicler of popular music and culture, and his definitive biographies of John Lennon, the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and Buddy Holly have been translated into numerous languages. He is also an award-winning writer of fiction and has written a memoir, Babycham Night.
