Exile On Main Street by Bill Janovitz
A Season in Hell with the Rolling Stones
A concise analysis of the Rolling Stones' messy, mythic double album that traces its chaotic recording sessions in France during the band's tax exile, the mixture of blues, gospel, country and rock that shaped its loose, gritty sound, and the interpersonal and drug-fueled turmoil behind the music. Drawing on session notes, interviews and musical analysis, the narrative situates the work in its cultural and historical moment, assesses contemporary and later critical reactions, and explains how its flaws and spontaneity helped forge a durable, debated legacy.
