Honestman, if you could go back and edit your post to put the credits in,
that'll be easier for people who want to save the credits along with the photos.
thanks for thinking about it ... and for all the fascinating shots
I was not sure at all.

...for the question mark about that first one.
it does of course resemble some shots Philip Townsend took, and maybe it is his,
but this one looks like 1964, and Townsend's "iconic" Chelsea-Embankment session was in may 63
and was all black & white, wasn't it? a lot of other Stones photographers went for that same ambience when they shot the Stones -
there was a thread about that around here a while ago - let me see if i can find it ...
ah here it is: [www.iorr.org]

200 pages, concentrating on the events of summer 1969 - Brian's departure & death, the Hyde Park concert, Brian's funeral, the shooting of Ned Kelly - the Mirrorpix archive (Daily Mirror) is credited and a lot of the pictures I haven't seen before look like good press photographs (maybe that's why no individual credits). Nice quality of photo reproduction in a nice big format (10" x 10" or about 25 x 25 cm) which as I've noted above is just too big to fit my A4 scanner. Lots of double spread photos too.
I haven't read all the text yet but I've already spotted a couple of things that look like inaccuracies to me.
1) The band is said to have been told about the problems happening at Altmont before they left their downtown hotel, and "Keith was all for not showing up, but he eventually went". Not only does this sound out of character, but I always thought that Keith spent the night on site at Altamont and therefore never went back to the hotel...
2) On first reading, the text appeared to say that the Beatles had given the Stones "I Wanna Be Your Man" before they ever came to see them at the Crawdaddy - on second reading this may be just poor editing.
Verdict so far: very good for pictures - text, could do better.
