Mick: The Wild Life and Mad Genius of Jagger

Written by Lee King

“He’s a smart little mother******, I’ll give him that.” – KEITH RICHARDS on MICK JAGGER
Mick: The Wild Life and Mad Genius of Jagger ($20) tries to show us the real Mick Jagger. Is he A Street Fighting Man? A Jumping Jack Flash? Or a Man of Wealth and Taste? It turns out he is all of these, and much much more. Mick Jagger can only be described as a force of nature, one of a kind, and one of the most dominant cultural figures of not only our time, but arguably all time. Strutting, swaggering, often elusive yet always spellbinding, he grabbed the world by the throat more than half a century ago and, unlike many of his most gifted peers, hasn’t let go since.
