Description

In 1963, in a south London hotel, Andrew Loog Oldham discovered an unknown rhythm and blues band called the Rolling Stones and became their manager and producer; by 1967 they had achieved worldwide celebrity, been arrested in a notorious drugs raid and split with the manager that made them. 2Stoned is the remarkable record of these years, when Oldham's radical strategies transformed them into the Greatest Rock 'n' Roll Band That Ever Drew Breath. In his first book Stoned Oldham recorded his early years and the meeting with the Stones that changed all their fates; 2Stoned is the story of what followed.

There is no better history of the period more thrillingly told * Time Out * 2Stoned is the volume everyone has been awaiting, and it doesn't disappoint * The Times * Oldham is a prose stylist of no little talent * Q Magazine *
