A brilliant book.
Painstakingly researched … the photographs are gold … reaquaints us with the ingenuous vulnerability, humility and humanity that originally rocketed [the Stones] to stardom. * Classic Rock *
Handsomely illustrated … thrills the inquisitive. * Mojo *
A brilliant book. – Robert Elms * BBC Radio London *
A great kind of rock and roll archaeology of the beginnings of, not only a band, but of popular culture on radio and TV - it’s fascinating. – Nicola Meighan * BBC Radio Scotland *
