First of all, I´d like to thank you for your support and your nice reviews. The idea of writing a book about the live career of the Stones came already up a few years ago, when I realized that almost no one knew something about my favorite guitar player Mick Taylor… Over the years I couldn´t find a book that summed up the whole live history of the Stones – which remains quite astonishing - ´cause the Stones are regarded by many as a live band. Then I decided to write this book – as a fan – but I wanted it to be based on facts and written in an adequate style – which was a lot of work. In late 2011 two German publishing houses were interested in publishing it but finally rejected the project – “Rolling Stones books are no best sellers”. I was really disappointed about it and finally saw the chance to publish it on my own as an eBook, went to a well known German illustrator who designed the cover – and then I couldn´t afford to add some photos – it just would have been too expensive. After its success as an eBook in Germany I could realize a dream to get it translated in English by an experienced translater. In my opinion Steve Ellery did a hell of a job.
