Length about an hour 20 -- somewhat interesting but nothing new after 10 minutes of viewing.

I watched an hour's worth and found it pretty interesting.  The first little bit dealt with how a 16 year old kid got into business in the days before computers.  He had to use a typewriter, a magic marker and his school's mimeograph machine to run off his first Stones newsletters.  After sharing his history he discussed how he finally met and began working for the Stones.  That was interesting - and he mimics their voices perfectly.  He's more than candid about his preference for Keith over Mick - a little more than needed in my view.

Thanks for posting.  I would have enjoyed being in the audience.

from Bill :

I'll be speaking about "Under Their Thumb" at the New
York Public Library next month.  I'll be at the Tompkins Square branch (331 E.
10th Street) on Saturday, May 21, at 2 p.m.  See
http://www.billgerman.com/events.html for more info.

Stop by if you're around.  It should be a fun afternoon.  'Til then, feel free
to "friend" me on Facebook and/or to "like" the Facebook "Under Their Thumb"
page.

All the best,
Bill German

PS: For those of you just north of NYC, I'll also be speaking at a library in
Westchester next weekend.  (Click on the above link for info.)
