Fifty years after Mick Jagger burst on the scene, hes still the standard against which all rock stars are judged. His distinctive voice and preening, prancing antics onstage have yet to be equaled, much less surpassed; his songs with band mate Keith Richards have become classics; and his reputation as an international sex symbol wont fade away. This stunning photographic volume looks at his life and career, from London suburbs to elder statesman at 70 years old--with all his attitude gloriously intact.

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. There may have been musical rebels like Elvis Presley before him, but once Mick Jagger first burst on the scene in 1962 as lead singer for England's convention- defying Rolling Stones, the mould was broken once and for all. Even fifty years later, his singing and performing style, heard on records and seen in concert halls and arenas and in movie theatres the world over, is still the benchmark against which all rock'n'roll front men are measured. And with good reason: Jagger's distinctive, malleable voice and preening, prancing antics onstage have yet to be duplicated, let alone equalled or surpassed. Together with his childhood and lifelong "Glimmer Twin" pal, guitarist Keith Richards, chief Stones lyricist Jagger has co-written countless indelible rock and roll classics, including Satisfaction, Paint It Black, Sympathy for the Devil, Miss You, and Start Me Up. Meanwhile, his reputation as a globe-hopping Don Juan-esque lover have made him a simultaneously cursed, envied and admired international sex symbol. Remarkably, now seventy years old, Jagger is still going strong on all fronts - and with all his unique cheekiness and take-no-prisoners attitude gloriously intact. The ultimate "Midnight Rambler" rock'n'roll rebel.
