The Rolling Stones – Sympathy For The Devil
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The print edition can be purchased at Amazon or from any other book seller. If you want an autographed copy the price is $60 for the hardback and $45 for the paperback, plus $8 shipping for each. Go here for purchasing details. The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

Blair-
Good selection!
This is from “Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus,” filmed in mid-December of 1968. Features the last live appearance of Brian Jones, who would die within 7 months. Mick was unhappy with the quality of the 2-day filming, and this wasn’t officially released until 1996.
I would put forth; the version of “You Can’t Always Get What You Want” they perform, is probably their best live version in a small setting.
It gets more interesting. The Stones were playing Sympathy for the Devil at Altamont in 1969 when violence erupted between Hell’s Angels who were providing security and the crowd. One dead, another 3 accidental deaths, numerous injuries and stolen vehicles. A really infamous concert. Cheers –
I remember being that skinny. At 13. Then my body discovered muscles and packed on a few pounds.
