60 years of the Rolling Stones

There aren’t many acts who can say they’re on the road for 60 year, but The Rolling Stones have done just that. Their first gig was in the Marquee Club in London on 12th July 1962. Starting tomorrow night on BBC 2, a new four-part series features the reflections of the four band members as they look back on their careers on stage and in the headlines. Sam Anthony is the series producer of “My Life as a Rolling Stone” and he joined us on the show this afternoon. The first episode of “My Life as a Rolling Stone” – on Mick Jagger – is on BBC Two, 9.30pm tomorrow night, with a double bill of Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood on Saturday 9th July, and Charlie Watts’ film on 23rd July.
