Reviews for Altamont: The Rolling Stones, the Hells Angels, and the Inside Story of Rock´s Darkest Day
Joel Selvin's book...is a deeply researched, minutely detailed, account of the event as it unfolds, occurs and concludes; and as a result comes to conclusions much greater than historical myth or a 'documentary' film can portray...This book is definitely worth a read, and it is extremely well researched.
