About the Book

This book is a thrilling journey into the legend of the Rolling Stones: a story that goes beyond music, one of rebellion, style, and cultural revolution. Here you won't find simple dates and song names, but a vibrant narrative that intertwines the lives of the protagonists-Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Brian Jones, Charlie Watts, Ronnie Wood, and the others-with the transformation of an entire era. The author meticulously and curiously reconstructs every stage of their career, from their first concerts in London clubs to the global success that saw them dominate stages around the world. Each chapter explores a different period: their early blues, the explosion of the 1960s, their psychedelic experiments, their artistic maturity, internal tensions and lineup changes, all the way to their live successes and the cultural legacy that is still palpable today. Above all, the narrative explores the band's central figures: Mick Jagger's theatrical charisma, Keith Richards' creative soul, and the complex chemistry between them, a perfect blend of genius and provocation. It's a look that goes beyond the music, also addressing the themes of their iconic image, revolutionary fashion, conflict with institutions, and the excesses and sacrifices that shaped their mythology. Continuous references to authoritative sources-from the protagonists' memoirs to iconic books such as Keith Richards' Life, Stanley Booth's The True Adventures of the Rolling Stones, Stephen Davis' Old Gods Almost Dead, and others-lend depth and authenticity to the narrative, avoiding simplifications and clichés. Audiovisual documentation is also highlighted: legendary concerts, archival footage, and iconic performances that shaped the Stones' public image. The book's goal is twofold: on the one hand, to offer a compelling chronicle that will attract fans and curious readers; On the other, it offers a reflection on the very nature of rock as a form of social rebellion, cultural identity, and instrument of resistance. From this perspective, the band emerges not only as a hit-making machine, but as an example of creative integrity, adaptation to historical change, and the ability to remain authentic even in times of crisis. This volume is therefore an epic summa of the Rolling Stones' history: an epic tale of music, life, rebellion, and reinvention. Perfect for those seeking the beating heart of rock 'n' roll, but also for those who wish to understand how a band can become an enduring symbol of freedom and transgression.
