Editorial Reviews

Review

'Sandford has done a meticulous job and writes in a gently authoritative, cohesive style.' Q 'Shows a light and often comic touch' Julie Burchill, The Spectator.

Product Description

Mick Jagger remains to this day the only rock star to straddle contrary lifestyles – musician, sex-symbol, actor, father, husband, and rebel – and retain credibility in each. In this eye-opening biography, Chris Sandford draws on his own conversations with Jagger, exclusive comments from Jagger’s parents, school friends and the three original members of his original group and the frank, sometimes disturbing recollections of his former manager, Tom Keylock. Among the book’s revelations are fresh insights into Jagger’s turbulent relationships with band members, and new details of Jagger’s celebrity affairs with Brigitte Bardot and Tina Turner, as well as his long relationships with Marianne Faithfull, Bianca, and Jerry Hall.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Jagger Biography so far, January 15, 2005

By	Cristobal Perez (Santiago, Chile) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is the only book by Christopher Sandford I've read, but I must say he's done a good job. Funnily enough, when you read this book you realise that Jagger's approach to life is actually a conservative one. Had he not taken such a firm grip on the band's affairs as he did from 1969 on the Stones would have most probably disbanded.
