Exile on Main Street: A Season in Hell with the Rolling Stones,
by by Robert Greenfield
Chronicles the recording
of the eponymous album at the Villa Nellcote in the South of France during
the summer following the death of Rolling Stones' founding member Brian
Jones. This very social scene is all sex, drugs and even some rock n roll.
Foremost are the fascinating relationships between Keith Richards, Mick
Jagger and Anita Pallenberg. The author writes with the assumption that
readers are intimate with the Stones' history and discography so much of the
information may be arcane for most as it was for me. However, I was hooked
into finding out more and gossiping with fans. If you like fast cars and
steep cliffs, you will enjoy this ride.
