Goin' Home with the Rolling Stones '66: Photographs by Gered Mankowitz - Hardcover
by Gered Mankowitz (Photographer), Gered Manowitz (Photographer), Andrew Loog Oldham (Foreword by)
The Stones at home and unplugged by official Stones photographer Gered Mankowitz
By the start of 1966, the Rolling Stones' position as rock gods was established. They were making serious money and splashing out on new homes and cars. Their official photographer and friend, Gered Mankowitz, was invited to shoot an "at home" session with each member of the band. "They hated the idea of unknown photographers visiting their private sanctuaries ... If I did it then the press office would have a large selection of this type of image and could fulfil any magazine request without having to bother the band."
Mankowitz kept these photographs in supermarket carrier bags stashed under his desk for several years, "getting in my way and frequently wondering why I continued to hold on to them." This is the first time these sessions have been collated and published. The book includes both iconic and unseen photographs: Mick in a kipper tie turning on his new television and posing outside with a new Aston Martin; Keith, Lord of the Manor-style, with his blue Bentley and antique sword at his East Sussex home; Charlie grinning next to lingerie drying in the garden; Brian in obligatory silk shirt in front of a handpainted mural; Bill in the kitchen with his dog. Goin' Home with the Rolling Stones '66 is a beguiling collection of images, shot with incredible skill, that offers that rare thing in Stones photography--a fresh perspective. It features an introduction by Mankowitz and a foreword from the Rolling Stones' legendary manager, Andrew Loog Oldham.Details
