Description

The Rolling Stones' 1969 was a year that saw them return to their rock'n'roll roots after experimenting with psychedelia. By December, they had released Let it Bleed, played an iconic concert at Hyde Park, and witnessed the tragic events of Altamont Speedway. This book provides a detailed account of the transformative year that cemented the Stones' reputation as one of the greatest rock bands in the world. With their career finally coming out from under the shadow of The Beatles, everything - both the good and the bad - became crystal clear for the band. The story is marked by significant events, including a notorious 1967 drug bust, which ultimately crystallised the Stones' identity as they entered the Swinging Sixties' final year.
