Symphony for the Devil: The Rolling Stones Story

Rating:
Summary: This is a must have for any ture Stones fan!
Review: I have been a fan of this group since '65 and this is one of the best books written on the band. Unfortunately, it does not cover the group's entire career--rather it leaves off in the mid-80s. However, it does cover the Brian Jones time period (which is the most pertinent since this is when their best work was done in my opinion). Facinating reading and extreemly informative--great for learning of the beginings of the Stones and what drove them to be the greatest rock and roll band in the world! If I can recommend a few of my favorites along with this book it is Stone Alone (who better to tell the story than an insider), Our Own True Story by The Rolling Stones (if you can find it--it was published in '65 and out of print for over 30 years), Dancing With the Devil by Stanley Booth and (of course) A Life on the Road.
