Sex, Drugs & Rock 'n' Roll ... The Rolling Stones are as well known for the band members' highly public and often troubled personal journeys as they are for their chart-topping music and flashy concerts.
With eight consecutive #1 albums in the U.S., over 200 million in record sales and decades of sold-out live shows, the Stones are arguably the greatest rock 'n' roll band in the world. Having pioneered a gritty, blues-based style of rock in the '60s - and courting a surly, unkempt image that was the antithesis of the Beatles - the group quickly became superstars with Mick Jagger's unique blend of macho showmanship and campy irony.
This compelling documentary charts the band's nearly 50-year history - from their first appearance in 1962 through their meteoric rise to fame (and notoriety), the British invasion, the famous "rivalry" between the Stones and the Beatles and the personal drama - drug busts, in-fighting, off-stage antics with groupies, line-up changes and the death of founder Brian Jones.

Rolling Stones er et engelsk rockeband dannet i London i 1962. De har vært aktive i over seks tiår, og er et av de mest populære, innflytelsesrike og varige bandene i rockeæraen . Tidlig på 1960-tallet var bandet pionerer innen den rå, rytmisk drevne lyden som kom til å definere hardrock . Deres første stabile besetning besto av vokalist Mick Jagger , gitarist Keith Richards , multiinstrumentalisten Brian Jones , bassist Bill Wyman og trommeslager Charlie Watts , etter at pianisten Ian Stewart ble satt på sidelinjen av manageren deres Andrew Loog Oldham . I løpet av de første årene var Jones den primære lederen. Oldham oppmuntret dem til å skrive sine egne sanger. Partnerskapet mellom Jagger og Richards ble snart bandets primære låtskriver og kreative kraft.
