THE ROLLING STONES SONGBOOK

"The original Rolling Stones manager Andrew Loog Oldham probably deserves credit for the band's delinquent attitude and antidote-to-the-Beatles posture, but his pretensions as studio mastermind are less convincing. If his greatest gift to the Stones was pressuring Jagger and Richards into writing their own material, he grabbed some payback with this collection of schlocky orchestrations of some of their best-known 60s tunes".
