Angelina Rocca's narration--serious but not unfriendly, exhaustive but not exhausting--sets the right tone for this audiobook about the trendsetting women associated with the Rolling Stones. Rocca convincingly conveys the author's premise that Marianne Faithful, Anita Pallenberg, Marsha Hunt, and Bianca Jagger weren't the women "behind" the Rolling Stones; they were agenda-setting equals whose influence will be forever embedded in the band. These women fulfilled roles as lovers, wives, muses, stylists, cultural guides, trendsetters, and accomplices. Though much of the material is familiar to fans of the Stones, there are still revelations about Pallenberg and Faithful, along with well-researched profiles of Hunt and Bianca Jagger. The result is a pleasant, informative pop study. R.W.S. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine [Published: JUNE 2023]
