Review

"Wyman speaks and the Rolling Stones fans will listen...While most of the other mates got high, Wyman kept a diary, recording the churning chaos of the band's creative evolution, power plays, recording sessions, tours, romances, drug busts, and financial disarray."

Publisher's note

During the height of the Rolling Stones' success, Bill Wyman kept a diary, recoding the churning chaos of the band's creative evolution, power plays, recording sessions, tours, romances, drug busts, and financial disarray. "Stone Alone" is a meticulous, shrewd and humorous look at the complex personalities of the Stones and the role they played in the startling cultural revolution of the times. 63 photos.

Annotation

A skillful interweaving of the fine journalistic instincts of the late Ray Coleman and the treasure trove of memories and memorabilia of Bill Wyman, for three decades bass player of the Rolling Stones, STONE ALONE is a remarkable inside look both at the Stones' petty squabbles and at their transcendent moments. Wyman's mix of the exotic and the mundane lends his story a realism lacking in the more salacious accounts of life with the Stones. He gives equal time to ancient one night stands of both the musical and romantic variety (though the bassist is married with a family throughout the book, he never lets that interfere with his sex life), notorious drug busts, and the more prosaic details of the domestic arrangements of a working musician. STONE ALONE is revealing both of the inner tensions present within the Stones from the beginning and of its members' complete dedication to the band and its music. Comfortable in his steadfastly workmanlike role, Wyman presents the ambitious machinations of front man Mick Jagger with the amusement, exasperation, and resignation of a family member--which, as STONE ALONE's fastidious recounting of the minutiae of the musician's career succeeds in convincing us, he practically is.
