‘Gered was at one with the band. More than that, for that special time, he was in the band.’
-ANDREW LOOG OLDHAM

‘He was a hell of a lot of fun. That’s why he was a good photographer.’
-MARIANNE FAITHFULL

Delve into the unseen archive of iconic photographer Gered Mankowitz as he shares rare and newly discovered images of his time with the Rolling Stones, alongside his most iconic shots.

Just a teenager, Mankowitz took some of the best-loved photographs of the Stones in their frantic, formative years. Now for the first time he looks beyond those famous images – unearthing frames that have never been seen before, plus those rarely used.

Also featuring Gered’s first-hand stories and a host of expert writers on the band and their music – including The Times’ chief rock and pop critic Will Hodgkinson, Ben Sisario of the New York Times as well as academics, fashion writers and more – The Rolling Stones Rare and Unseen is a fresh look at the greatest story in rock ‘n’ roll.
