Description
wide
Not available as an ebook.

This book is from an old, yellowing paperback:

Scanned.
Scanned pages were enlarged and turned into razor-sharp monochrome using Image Magick
Cleaned png files were run through Tesseract-ocr
Resultant txt files were algorithmically tidied up, removed illegal characters, spellings corrected, page numbers removed (some still remain).  All the multiple txt files were concatenated together into one file.
Then the mighty Calibre converted the txt file to the ebook files.
That's it.  No clickable contents or index, no pics.  Just a highly readable ebook.
Cover image was the best I could manage.



This book is from '74 so a lot of the details were new when the book came out; they've since become part of the very standard narrative about events surrounding the fall of Brian Jones and even after the tribute concert for Brian. The book only really goes up to 1969 or so which is too bad as it presented some information I hadn't heard before. If only it had presented new details from 1970-1974, but it was not to be. There was definitely interview material with new details of events surrounding the fall of Brian Jones from Marianne Faithful and Alexis Korner that I've not seen anywhere else. And there is some really early material about the very beginning of Jagger's blues singing with the Blueboys (whose home recording is an easy to find bootleg that is the first recording of Jagger ever singing Americans blues and Chuck Berry type material). Overall a good book with some very very specific details you won't find anywhere else, but only of interest to hardcore fans. Most of this information is folded into any standard biography of the Rolling Stones. .
