The Rolling Stones All the Songs: The Story Behind Every Track
This has been translated in Dutch (The Rolling Stones compleet het verhaal van de 365 songs). It looks interesting. Does any have this book? Any comments? Good things? Bad things Any opinions?

I find it hard to believe that someone has managed to compile a book which gives accurate information relating to the writing of each song. The Stones themselves can't even agree on many songs and their own accounts vary depending on which decade they are interviewed.....I'm not saying it can't be done, just that I'm more inclined to think this is just someone who has trawled through a lot of interviews and patched it together.

I was browsing through the book and it was ruther funny.
The author isn't always sure about his information. He used these words many times: "maybe", "possibly", "perhaps", "probably".
It's like he's guessing all the time who's playing what. hahaha
I don't know. The book looks very cool and very good read. But I don't know if the information is all that reliable.

If I am asked I prefer Margotin/Guesdon's book by a mile.
I don't enjoy saying this because I have much respect for Martin Elliott.
