When the Rolling Stones first landed at JFK Airport in June 1964, they hadn't yet had a hit record in America, and no one even noticed their arrival. By the end of the 60s, they were mobbed wherever they went in New York City, packed audiences in at Madison Square Garden, and were the toast of the town on the celebrity scene. Fifty years later, the impact that Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, and the rest of the band left on the Big Apple remains indelible. Christopher McKittrick explores the history of the Rolling Stones through the prism of New York, charting the parallel paths of the world's most famous band and America's most famous city.
