 | The True Adventures of the Rolling Stones by Stanley Booth
In this history of the Rolling Stones, author Stanley Booth shares his experience of living with the band during their 1969 American tour. Although Booth had only met the late guitarist, Brian Jones, months before his drowning death, he focuses on the tragedy, describing the impact it had on the band. He also details the violence that broke out during the band's last show at the Altamont Speedway--an event in which, Booth says, he watched the 1960s die before his eyes. AUTHOR: Stanley Booth
