The History of the Stones Through Cartoons--Five Stars,
By
This review is from: The Stones: A History in Cartoons (Hardcover)
If you are a fan of the Rolling Stones, you owe it to yourself to get this book. Bill Wyman was the historian of the group, clipping and saving everything, including, I assume, many of these cartoons.
The cartoons are laid out in chronological order from the beginnings of the Stones career through the present. The gags have changed over the years, of course. First, it was the hair-length. Next, the sexual escapades. Still later, the geriatric nature of the boys in the band. The cartoons run the gamut and are hilarious, with text to put them in context. A great quote that sums up the controversial boys from a British newspaper of the early sixties: "Perverted, outrageous, violent, repulsive, ugly, tasteful, incoherent. A travesty. That's what's good about them." Like any great artists, full of contradictions. Highly recommended. Five stars. |
