The Rolling Stones: In the Beginning

With Unseen Images

Bent Rej
Bent Raj had unprecedented access to The Rolling Stones between summer 1965 and spring 1966, touring with them and becoming a trusted friend. Reflecting that intimacy, this collection of his photographs captures the months in which the band transitioned from mere fame to rock superstardom, with hundreds of images showing the Stones ‘off guard’ as well as on stage and at home.

"The photographs are amazing - the Stones are still practically children, messing around, pulling faces and writing the odd song."
GQ

"The finest single collection of Stones photographs I have ever seen"
Bill Wyman

NEW, EXPANDED EDITION CONTAINING NEVER-BEFORE-SEEN PHOTOGRAPHS.

In 1965 the Rolling Stones were big and about to be huge, when Bent Rej was given unprecedented access to a year in the eye of the rock 'n' roll storm, accompanying the band on its first full European outing: the Satisfaction tour.

The Rolling Stones In the Beginning is Rej's collection of more than 300 intimate photographs of the band on stage, on the road and at home, documenting a year in the life of the Rolling Stones as they enjoyed their first taste of popular success.

Long a fan favourite, this brand new edition offers an even closer look into the making of music history with images recently unearthed from Rej's archives.
