60 Years of the Rolling Stones, with Lesley-Ann Jones
Show Notes

Lesley-Ann Jones discusses The Stone Age, her biography of the self-styled greatest rock'n'roll band in the world.

Lesley-Ann Jones interviewed hundreds of insiders and eye witnesses to create the biography. As a friend of Bill Wyman in the 80s, she was curious to investigate further the emotional chaos the band has left in its wake - as well as to detail how a group of white suburban kids brought the music of black America to British audiences.

This is an edited version of a live launch event at the Social, Little Portland Street, London W1,  in July 2022. Lesley-Ann Jones is in conversation with Radio Days Book Club host Duncan Steer.
