Mick Jagger read some verses from Shelleys poem Adonais in Hyde Park 1969 in memory of Brian Jones, who had drowned few days earlier. Beat poetry and romantic poetry have been influences to the Jagger/Richards’ lyrics since they wrote their first song. But the table has also been turning. Stones-lyrics have influenced poets too. Partly or more thoroughly. I think it could be of interest to map these Stones-influences to the poetry from different countries. As a dane I have noticed several traces in Danish books of poetry – but also one irish/English (Paul Muldoon). Let’s make a (hopefully worldwide) map of Stones referring and Stones influenced poetry and poets!
Ireland:
Paul Muldoon: Hay (1998)
Denmark:
Klaus Høeck: Pentagram (1976)
Peter Laugesen: Katatonien (1970)
Michael Strunge: Udafnatten (1982)
Jan Thielke: Nat efter nat (1994)
Jan Thielke: Ånden er over os (2005)
Jan Thielke: Faderskabsdigte (2008)
Dan Turèll: Feuilleton 6: Not Fade Away (1973)
Dan Turèll: Here Comes Your 19th Nervous Breakdown (1973)
