Will I love Like a Rolling Stone?

A kind of cultural Zelig, Jann Wenner has observed, followed, and eventually helped lead (by, for example, founding the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame) the evolution of rock & roll music from the Acid Test/Grateful Dead era of his Bay Area youth, through his publication and half-century stewardship of Rolling Stone magazine, to his ultimate incarnation as a zillionaire political mover-and-shaker, first-name hobnobbing with the likes of Bill and Hillary, Michelle and Barak. This kiss-and-tell memoir invites us to witness that journey first-hand, and to spend candid time with the likes of John and Yoko, Paul and Linda, Mick,… show more.
