"Uptight With The Stones"
This is a hardcover book with dust jacket from 1973. The author is Richard Elman.
'Richard Elman traveled with The Rolling Stones on their 1972 tour of the South. This is his report - an intimate, graphic, sardonic account of what it was like. It shows the Stones on-stage and off, particuarly Mick Jagger. It catches the world of groupies, record magnates, security guards, and celebrities determined to be with-it. Above all, the book conveys a sense of what the Stones have to do - "Manipulate an undifferentiated multitude." For The Rolling Stones in action are now a highly contrived operation; and, Elman says , Mick Jagger's famous style has become "an active repudiation of the joyful experience it purports to be about."

About Me :
I started collecting records in 1966. I started selling records in Goldmine in 1985. I now sell records at all Northwest record conventions : Portland, Seattle, Tacoma, Olympia, Port Townsend, Eugene, Grants Pass, and Canby. And at Crossroads Music in Portland, Oregon. On Discogs I am 'Fragilerecords'. My records are from a no smoking and no pets home. I am a record collector, not a DJ, so I almost never play my records. I only have a few posters, magazines, press kits, sheet music, and flyers.

I take great care on every package and I do each one personally. It will be sealed in a plastic bag. I will package it with cardboard on the top, on the bottom, and on the sides. I use hand cut composite cardboard that won't get bent. The package will say "BOOK" in red on both sides.
