Being a Stones lover since I first saw them on TV, I have collected photos over the years. Now, I can't find them. I must admit the thought of  700 photos of the Stones in a book is the solution to my problem. Something one can enjoy and also pass on to future generations too. If you're a Stones fan like myself, this is a must have.

The Rolling Stones are to release a new photo album to mark 50 years since their first ever gig.

The photographic autobiography - entitled 'The Rolling Stones: 50' - will also include words from the band and images taken by Philip Townsend, the photographer for the their first ever shoot.

In a statement on their official website Rollingstones.com, the band wrote: "This is our story of 50 fantastic years. We started out as a blues band playing the clubs and more recently we've filled the largest stadiums in the world with the kind of show that none of us could have imagined all those years ago."
