Title: He Was There
Review: An excellent book by a man who actually witnessed the events he recounts. Considered by many to be the peak of the Stones' performing career, their 1972 tour of America certainly deserved to be covered in detail and Mr. Greenfield did so. He was also filing regular reports for Rolling Stone magazine during the tour and these are paraphrased throughout. The book would have been better if he had used the original material from RS, but this is a minor quibble. It's a must-have for anyone wanting to read about the Greatest Rock 'n' Roll Band In The World at the height of their powers. And the recently released DVD of the superb 72 tour movie Ladies And Gentlemen The Rolling Stones is another must-have for any Stones fan.
