Summary: I Know It's Only Rock And Roll But I Like It
Review: This book is another in the Omnibus series. Great little book packed with information from the beginning to the present. Most every Stones song is covered. Very thorough.

Summary: Informative but opinionated
Review: This book should really be titled "The Complete Guide to One Man's Opinion of the Rolling Stones." Granted, you can hardly expect someone to discuss all the Stones' records without having some opinion; however, Hector's tone is fairly pretentious and almost always snobbish. Worth reading for hard-core Stones fans, but the Appleford book is much more detailed, and it isn't so painfully clear how hard the writer is trying to impress you with his critical voice.(As you may have guessed, I disagreed with about 50 percent of what this guy wrote.)

Summary: It Has Its Purpose
Review: This booklet published before the Rolling Stones release Bridges To Babylon serves the purpose of outling each of the Rolling Stones songs and a summary of their recordings. A very detailed description of each track is given. Helpful for those debating whether to purchase a particular recording. Yes, there are some slight biases. However, the author does not make his opinion too overbearing. A nice pocket size booklet for Rolling Stones fans.
