The joy of finally having these photos in a quality book at a reasonable price is balanced by the sigh of bewilderment that it took so long. These are wonderful images. and some say more than the proverbial 1.000 words. Most pages have only one photo per page. but in many cases one photo spans two pages and is ruined by the crease. The captions arent all correct. but the editor admits that they are still researching that aspect. The woman standing stage left with the bowls of rose petals is not explained; would have been nice if they had mentioned that Mick liked to toss rose petals on the audience and the stage in the closing number (in later years he would toss buckets of water). One image is labeled Midnight Rambler. but there are rose petals on the stage. so its more likely Street Fighting Man which closed most of the shows. Thanks to everyone who worked to get this book produced. My hope is that a book with images from Nellcote summer of 1971 and the other photographers who worked the 1972 tour will be published.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. The Stones at Their BestBy CIWL ModelerThe first Stones concert that I saw. The tickets were chosen by lottery. I used every possible permutation of every employees name and address and got four tickets to each of the three concerts. To determine how loud they could play through the Tycobrahe sound system.(page 126 - 127) a Boeing 707 taking off at JFK was measured at 180 decibels. Rather than throw light from the back of Madison Square Garden. a concave mirror was suspended thirty rows from the stage. "Super-Trooper" lights were positioned behind the amps and the operators aimed their lights at the reflections of the performers.(Page 146 -147) The band was at their peak with Mick Taylor hitting his stride. I went to the second concert at MSG. The office manager went the night before and when I asked how they were. she said. "Those guys are really bad!" It was the first time I had heard the word "Bad" to mean "Good"!.8 of 8 people found the following review helpful. Classy book of a classic rock n roll tourBy dr johnsonThis is a very nice little book. Wonderful photos that evoke a special time. Some of the captions are perhaps wrong - in the description of venues - but that does not detract from the images which are themselves splendid. Jim Marshall was a wonderful guy and this book is a nice memory for me of the man and his work.
