Beggars Banquet and the Rolling Stones' Rock and Roll Revolution by Russell Reising
The Rolling Stones Beggars Banquet is one of the seminal albums in rock history. Arguably it not only marks the advent of the mature sound of the Rolling Stones but lays out a new blueprint for an approach to blues-based rock music that would endure for several decades."The book’s strength is the astonishingly broad palette of disciplines it coversSome chapters focus on the individual players (including the sidemen and producers) or concentrate on the analysis of a single song (including rare b-sides) while others deal with larger topics such as sexuality, ethics, psychedelia, disability, production techniques, or the staging of live performances. For such a panopticon, a good structure is needed and the editor really did his best to create a convincing ‘set list’. It all holds together by concentrating on Beggars Banquet, the LP with which the band reinvented themselves and found their style for the decades to come. 50 years later, this is the book such a musical milestone deserves!"
