Mick Jagger. E-book. Formato EPUB Philip Norman - Mondadori, 2013 -
Esibizionista, sfrontato e trasgressivo, a settant'anni Mick Jagger mostra sul palco la stessa grinta di un tempo, oltre a quell'irresistibile fascino androgino ancora in grado di richiamare a ogni concerto un pubblico sterminato, e non solo femminile. La vita avventurosa e davvero unica della rockstar più famosa del mondo è qui raccontata da Philip Norman, già autore di opere fondamentali sui Beatles, su John Lennon e sugli stessi Stones. Il libro segue il protagonista dall'infanzia nella tranquilla contea del Kent fino agli studi nella severa Dartford Grammar School, dove l'adolescente Mick scopre il blues, lo accompagna dai primi passi nella Swinging London degli anni Sessanta fino alla nascita dei Rolling Stones e ai memorabili tour planetari. Grazie a interviste esclusive e materiali d'epoca chiarisce i retroscena degli eventi, anche drammatici, che hanno costellato la lunga carriera di Jagger, come l'arresto per detenzione di droga e la breve esperienza del carcere, la tormentata relazione con Marianne Faithfull, la morte di Brian Jones, fondatore della band, le violenze degli Hells Angels al concerto di Altamont e il rapporto burrascoso ma indissolubile con il "gemello" Keith Richards. Se ovviamente ampio spazio viene dedicato al talento (spesso sottovalutato) di Jagger come cantante e musicista, creatore di un inconfondibile "marchio" sonoro e coautore di pezzi indimenticabili.

VICTORIA & ALBERT MUSEUM CATALOGUES NOTE. The Drawings of Old London, which form the subject of this Catalogue, were made by Mr. Philip Norman, LL.D., F.S.A., in almost every case from the actual buildings, many of which have since been demolished or essentially altered in appearance. They form, consequently, an important record of characteristic examples of Old London architecture, chiefly domestic; and, from this point of view, may be recommended to the attention of students. The collection was purchased for the Museum, in January 1896, on the recommendation of Professor W. Middleton and William Morris. The drawings can be seen by visitors, in the Students' Room of the Department of Engraving, Illustration and Design (Room 71), at any time when the Museum is open, except on Sundays. The Department also contains other drawings and prints of a similar nature; and a Topographical Index referring thereto.
