Review
'A highly professional reference biography that, if you pardon the expression, leaves no Stone unturned and is by no means bereft of memorable anecdotes' Charles Shaar Murray, Literary Review
'A concise, meticulous and workmanlike fast-forward through a half-century of scandals, arrests, overdoses, divorces, deaths, disasters and, of course, triumphs... There's also a more than respectable amount of original research' Literary Review
'Sex and the Stones laid bare in candid new book' --Sun
Sandford gamely makes his way through the binges and the arrears, the marital break-ups and the internecine feuds, and finds an uproarious comedy in the luxuriant squalor and knockabout chaos of it all --Observer
A new book on the Rolling Stones reveals Mick Jagger once arrived on court for a tennis match against Keith Richards togged out in Wimbledon-style whites. Keef rolled up in cut-off jeans, with a fag in his mouth and thrashed Mick 6-1. What s not to love about the guy?
[Sandford] does a good job of giving us the full story in humorous tones. Tales of friendships, flings, rivalries (especially the central one between Jagger and Richards) are all told with welcome irreverence
