Massimo`s "Aftermath", most boring Stones book ever

Why make an interesting subject so boring? The whole book is written in a minimalistic, telegram style, without any editorial treatment at all. This guy obviosly thinks he`s the coolest man on earth.
The listing of who played what, on each track, is very 'bla, bla, bla'. The stress on chronology is so strict, that some stuff seem out of context.
While writing of the making of "It`s only Rock `n Roll", the author suddenly says that US` president at the time, Gerald Ford, has never heard about Mick Jagger.
For those of us who want to know more about the making of "Undercover", we don`t get much.
For sure, opinionated, this man is not.

It may indeed be the most boring, but "According to (The Rolling Stones)" gets the prize for being the most patronising.
Brought out at the same time that they were airbrushing Bill Wyman off the Rarities cover, they manage to take the art of saying nothing to a new level, by filling in page-after-page of useless uninformative drivel.
Depressing.

Well, that is a true story.
What Jerry said was, "Mick Jagger? Isn't he the motorcycle rider?"

At the end was Jerry's son who rode Mick's bike.
