Hearing the story of The Rolling Stones was fascinating, but I did not care that this audio was taken directly from a documentary. I would have rather watched it, instead of listen to it on my drive to work. I did enjoy the concert clips. Hearing the band during their early days was exciting. Like all other tragic stories of rock bands: drugs, women, and egos eventually break up the group. If you like The Rolling Stones, I would suggest finding this documentary instead of listening to it.
