Rolling Stones 69, Paperback / softback Book

Rolling Stones 69 Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

In what was a momentous year of social change, the Rolling Stones experienced the most significant twelve months of their career.

At the start of 1969, they were a successful blues band returning to their rock’n’roll roots after a recent experiment with psychedelia.

By December, they had released the classic album Let It Bleed, lost one of their founding members, played an era-defining concert at Hyde Park to half a million people and witnessed a fan stabbed to death at Altamont Speedway.

With a notorious 1967 drug bust on their CV and a career finally coming out from under the shadow of their rivals The Beatles, everything – the good, the bad and the ugly – suddenly crystallised for the Stones as the Swinging Sixties stumbled to a close. Rolling Stones 69 is the definitive account of the transformative year that saw the Stones truly earn their reputation as “the greatest rock’n’roll band in the world”.
