Synopsis

The Rolling Stones are the longest surviving rock 'n' roll band in history, and probably the greatest. Formed in 1961 and originally inspired by the blues, rhythm and blues and rock 'n' roll, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards went on to become one of the greatest song-writing teams in the history of popular music and the band continues to fill stadiums worldwide. This comprehensive book lists every recording made by The Stones and gives full background details and complete musical credits. It also features album sleeves, CD and tape inserts. Packed with information relating to every song officially released on record, "The Rolling Stones: Album File and Complete Discography" includes the titles of both albums and individual tracks, release dates, composer credits, timings and comments on each track with details of who plays and sings what, together with odd bits and pieces of information to interest every fan.
