On Thursday 12 July 1962 the Rolling Stones went on stage at the Marquee Club in London's Oxford Street. In the intervening fifty years the Stones have performed live in front of more people than any band... ever. They've played the smallest blues clubs and some of the biggest stadium tours of all time. They've had No.1 singles and albums in every country that has a popular music chart and have helped define global popular culture. A phenomenal half-century later, they now look back at their astounding career. Curated, introduced and narrated by the band themselves, The Rolling Stones 50 is the only officially authorized book to celebrate this milestone. With privileged access to a wealth of unseen and rare material, it is packed with superb reportage photography, contact sheets, negative strips, outtakes and so much more, from every period in the band's history.

With more than 1,000 illustrations, it also features some of the most rare and interesting Stones memorabilia in existence: international posters, draft record cover art, bubblegum cards, jigsaws and other previously unpublished treasures specially photographed for this volume.

Additional contributions by photography legends Gered Mankowitz, Jean-Marie PÉrier, Dezo Hoffmann, Michael Cooper, Terry O'Neill, Bent Rej, Philip Townsend and many others make this the definitive book to celebrate fifty years of the Rolling Stones.

From Mick, Keith, Charlie and Ronnie -- here is one spectacular thank you to their fans all over the world.

With over 1,000 illustrations in colour and black and white.

Featuring photography from the Daily Mirror's Mirrorpix archive.

About the Author

The Rolling Stones are iconic, widely considered the greatest rock & amp roll band in history. As the most visible band of their era, their tours have consistently broken box office records, making them the one of the highest grossing acts of all time. They hold rock's longevity record: At 50 years after their first performance, with a few hiatuses but no break ups, they've been around longer than any other rock band. Even after half a decade they have a reputation for putting on raucous, hip-shaking, live shows. With 55 albums of original work and over 200 million records sold, they're easily one of the biggest bands in the world. They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1989 and have received lifetime achievement awards from the Grammys and MTV.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth the price
Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2012

I'm a new Rolling Stones fan -- even though I'm old enough to have been a fan for the last fifty years. I liked their music when I was young, but usually without knowing it was "Stones." And I thought Mick was cute, but never paid any attention to the rest of the band. What a mistake!

It took reading Keith Richards autobiography, "Life," (highly recommended) to make me realize there was a whole world of music out there that I needed to explore. As someone without a lot of Stones books, I thought the pictures alone in this book made it worth every penny. The commentary from Mick, Keith, Charlie and Ronnie makes it a little more personal than many commemorative books. It's so interesting to watch the band members turn from boys into men, and to see how the band itself matures into "the greatest rock and roll band ever." Yes, the book is a bit short on background material, but that's readily available elsewhere.

I say, if you're a Rolling Stones fan, you need to own this book. Or even if you're just interested in seeing what the music scene was like in the sixties -- over half of the book is devoted to the 1962-69 period.

Such a fabulous book! This was accidentally purchased instead of the Rolling Stone Magazine 50 year book (which I also highly recommend), and I'm so glad it was! The book features a ton of phenomenal photos of the band. One of my favorite parts of Desert Trip was the enormous photo gallery they had there, and this book is second only to that! A must have for any true Stones fan!

Having been a Stones fan since 1965 I was super excited to own this book. It sits on my coffee table for anyone who visits to enjoy. So many pictures! It depicts The Rolling Stones from their beginning till present in vivid detail. I love the cover too! Brings back many memories of 1970 when they first started using that logo. All in all I would totally recommend this book to add to anyones collection & if you are a Stones fan it is a must!

Truth be known, I haven't spent much time with this beautiful book save for quickly thumbing through it. I collect Rolling Stones books and this one is a essential part of a comprehensive collection. It is big, well constructed and high quality. I have been a Stones' fan since the early 60's and just had to have this official publication. If you love the Rolling Stones like I do, you have to have this book.

This book is one of the better rock and roll coffee table books. It delivers a lot of the Roling Stones from the begining to the present with out a lot of text. Mostly pictures that take you right back to the heddy high days of this emerging super talented band.

If you are a rock and roll fan, this biik is a must have for your collection.

I am not personally a Rolling Stones fanatic, but the friend to whom I gifted the book has not stopped thanking me for knowing how much she loves the Stones. It isn't difficult as she has a collection of Stones memorabilia (including one of Mick's used water bottles she caught at a concert several years ago).

So from her lips to this review, SHE LOVED IT!

Lo compré para regalarlo a un fan de la banda y fue un buen regalo por el valor histórico de las fotografias. Pero le falta un poco de profundidad en el texto que acompaña las fotografías, ya que són comentarios muy básicos y superficiales.

5.0 out of 5 stars Treat yourself to this!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 11, 2013

This is a must for any die-hard Stones fan. It is both sizeable and weighty at 350 pages, superbly produced on excellent quality paper and extremely reasonably priced. It has to become a collectors' item. The illustrations are manifold, from their very early life as a group, concert posters, personal pictures, and more recent photographs taken at the Bigger Bang and Shine a Light tours. A personal favourite (and there are many) is of Keith and Mick in The Feathers Pub in Fleet Street having a fag and a pint on the day they were both discharged from prison in 1967. Apart from a glance from a barmaid, all continues as usual at the bar. The pictures are interspersed with copious recollections from the boys themselves, although there is very little about the women in their lives, either in pictures or recollectively. All in all, a wonderful visual record of the life and times of one of the greatest rock bands of all time. Buy it and you won't be disappointed...
