THE TRUE ADVENTURES OF THE ROLLING STONES

Book ID/图书代码: 02919019C00009

English Summary/英文概要: Stanley Booth, a member of the Rolling Stones’ inner circle, met the band just a few months before Brian Jones drowned in a swimming pool in 1968. He lived with them throughout their 1969 tour across the United States, staying up all night together listening to blues, talking about music, ingesting drugs, and consorting with groupies. His thrilling account culminates with their final concert at Altamont Speedway—a nightmare of beating, stabbing, and killing that would signal the end of a generation’s dreams of peace and freedom. But while this book renders in fine detail the entire history of the Stones, paying special attention to the tragedy of Brian Jones, it is about much more than a writer and a rock band. It has been called—by Harold Brodkey and Robert Stone, among others—the best book ever written about the 1960s. In Booth’s afterword, he finally explains why it took him 15 years to write the book, relating an astonishing story of drugs, jails, and disasters. Updated to include a foreword by Greil Marcus, this 30th anniversary edition is for Rolling Stones fans everywhere.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 滚石乐队核心圈子的成员斯坦利•布斯在1968年布莱恩•琼斯淹死在游泳池前几个月才认识了乐队。在他们1969年的美国巡演中,他和他们住在一起,整夜听蓝调,谈论音乐,吸毒,和一群追星族在一起。他那激动人心的叙述随着他们在阿尔塔蒙特高速公路上的最后一场音乐会而达到高潮——一场关于殴打、刺杀和杀戮的噩梦,标志着一代人的和平与自由梦想的终结。然而,尽管这本书详细地描述了滚石乐队的整个历史,特别关注了布莱恩•琼斯的悲剧,但它所讲述的远不止一个作家和一个摇滚乐队。哈罗德•布罗基和罗伯特•斯通等人将其称为史上描写20世纪60年代的最佳作品。在布斯的后记中,他终于解释了为什么他花了15年时间写这本书,讲述了一个关于毒品、监狱和灾难的惊人故事。更新到包括格雷尔•马库斯的前言,这个30周年的版本是为滚石的球迷而作。(WYL)

Awards/获奖情况:“对边缘生活的生动描述。”——TheWeek.com

“斯坦利•布斯对乐队的喜爱,并没有阻止他描写上世纪60年代滚石乐队世界黑暗的一面……这是我唯一推荐给普通读者和最忠实的书迷的关于滚石的书。两者几乎在每一页都能找到顿悟。”——罗伯特•帕尔默,《纽约时报》书评

“如果你从来没有买过一本关于摇滚乐的书,没关系,这就是你一直在等你的书。“花花公子

“真令人吃惊……部分是口述历史,部分是午夜日记,在一个午夜永远持续的世界里。”——洛杉矶读者

“粉碎……布斯找到了自己的声音和动力,他的音调和激情是我在流行新闻中从未见过的……他的书超越了滚石自那以后所做的一切。”——米卡尔•吉尔摩(洛杉矶先驱报审查员

“布斯的文笔有力生动地再现了一个被自己的激情所陶醉的时代,继而发现一种难以驾驭的音乐并以此为生的失控过程。在20世纪60年代的所有编年史中,没有任何文字能如此勾起人们对那段岁月的回忆。”——罗伯特•斯通,沙龙

“到目前为止,这本书是关于这个主题的最好的书(包括理查兹自己的作品,很受欢迎),布斯的书也是关于这个由20世纪60年代的摇滚革命创造的怪物内部生活的最有说服力的书。”——理查德•威廉姆斯,《卫报》

“简单地说,《滚石》的真正冒险是音乐新闻的重要文本之一。开创性的,富有洞察力的,有趣的和悲剧性的,这是一篇今天永远不会发生的报道。”——休斯顿出版社

“布斯的散文(他的其他作品包括《节奏》和《基思:直到我死为止》很有文笔,也很有趣。关于不良行为的趣闻比比皆是。但在告诉摇滚的故事,在1969年,美国之旅,让他和他们在这个国家往返奔波的途中与命运。——阿尔塔芒特,巨大的户外“免费音乐会”,4人死4人生——布斯也有一个更大的故事。——《记录与先驱报》

"A vivid account of life on the edge." —TheWeek.com

“[Stanley Booth’s] affection for the band did not keep him from writing about the seamy underside of the Stones’ world in the 1960s. . . . It is the only book about the Stones that I would recommend both to the general reader and to the most devoted fan. Both will find an epiphany on almost every page.” —Robert Palmer, New York Times Book Review

“If you’ve never bought a book about rock and roll, no matter—this is the one you’ve been waiting for.” —Playboy

“Astonishing . . . part oral history and part midnight diary in a world where midnight goes on forever.” —Los Angeles Reader

“Shattering. . . . Booth has found his voice and momentum with a pitch and passion I’ve never seen equaled in pop journalism. . . . His book outdistances anything the Stones have wrought since Let It Bleed.” —Mikal Gilmore, Los Angeles Herald Examiner

“Booth’s strong, sound prose brings to life the out-of-control process through which an age intoxicated by its own passions found a hard-driving music to live hard by. In all the annals of the 1960s, there is nothing on paper that so evokes those days and nights.” —Robert Stone, Salon

“By far the best book on its subject (including Richards’s own well received effort), Booth’s book is also easily the most convincing account of life inside the monster created by the rock revolution of the 1960s.” —Richard Williams, Guardian

“The True Adventures of the Rolling Stones is, simply put, one of those essential texts of music journalism. Groundbreaking, insightful, funny and tragic, it’s a piece of reporting that could never take place today.” —The Houston Press

“Booth’s prose (his other books include "Rhythm Oil" and "Keith: Till I Roll Over Dead") is writerly, funny. Good anecdotes about bad behavior abound. But in telling the tale of the Stones, during that 1969 American tour that sent him and them criss-crossing the country en route to the date with fate — Altamont, the giant outdoor "free concert" where four people were killed and four were born — Booth also has a larger story to tell.” —Record & Herald News
