Results for The Rolling Stones

Before they became ubiquitous, The Rolling Stones were unique, pioneering a gritty, blues-based rock and roll that played in stark contrast to the hum-able Beatles fare. Called variously hard rock, psychedelic, rowdy, violent, visceral, drugged-out and pop, the Stones' bad-boy image is wrapped tightly about the persona of lead singer Mick Jagger, who has been at the helm of their psychedelia-blues-rock to oldies odyssey. Playing their first gig as The Rolling Stones in England in 1962, they hit the U.S. in 1964 and have gone on to become one of the most successful and durable groups in rock and roll. The Stones continue to be an immense draw on tour and show no signs of letting up....more

  • King of Rock 'n' Soul: Solomon Burke Gets Deep

    by Denise SullivanJune 18, 2008Comments (0)

    Most of what I know about Burke's history comes from Guaralnick's interviews with him. But what I felt when I talked to Burke myself was something else entirely—perhaps best described as spiritual refreshment—and it's something that I will carry with me from here. He's a Philadelphia native who loves country music and a former "wonderboy preacher," with 21 children, 89 grandchildren (read more)

  • Charles Manson: When I Get to the Bottom

    by Brian BrownJune 11, 2008Comments (37)

    Dennis Wilson called Manson his Wizard and the two became very close, swapping girls, songs, and religious ideas. Wilson meanwhile championed Manson to the elite music establishment by opening all sorts of doors for him, dropping him off, guitar in hand, at the hippest gatherings and playing his demos to whomever would listen.

He is able to mimic almost any rock star of the past 40 years—not only as a singer and guitarist but also as a songwriter—and he is astonishingly prolific. He certainly has more charisma. With his tousled hair, leather clothes, legendary drinking bouts, grainy voice, and heavy-lidded insouciance, Adams has impressed (read more)
