The

The "Rolling Stones" Off the Record: Outrageous Opinions and Unrehearsed Interviews

by Mark Paytress (Author)

Synopsis

While the Mick Jagger of today drips with millions and seems to have become a member of the aristocratic establishment, there was once a time when he and his fellow Rolling Stones were rebels every bit as anti-establishment as the Sex Pistols. They have let slip their true feelings on many occasions and Mark Paytress's book catches them off guard, unearthing statements and interviews long forgotten. Now re-issued in paperback. Rediscovers unguarded and often indiscreet comments and frank opinions that might later have been denied altogether. A verbal documentary laced with the authentic flavour of the rebellious Rolling Stones in their heyday, the craziness that surrounded Mick and Keith and their disintergrating compatriot Brian Jones, the Stone who died from overexposure to everything the Sixties could offer.

Media Reviews
'Mark Paytress's judicious use of archive material to tell the Stones' story as it happened makes this a far more insightful history. By unearthing quotes untainted by memory loss or interview fatigue, this superior biography gives a fresher feel of the times.' Q
