Through the words of the people who were there, the reader is taken on a journey from a smoky London jazz club in 1962 through to international pop stardom with '(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction' and on to the Stones' last UK performance of that era on a summer's day in Hyde Park in 1969. This is a people's history of the 'greatest rock'n'roll band in the world'. A unique insight into the period with stories that will fascinate and delight those who were there, those who wish they had been there, Rolling Stones fans and rock aficionados and those interested in 1960s music and popular social history.
