The 60th anniversary of the Rolling Stones will be celebrated with great fanfare by the BBC. The English channel has indeed prepared a docu-series and a radio program which will include exclusive interviews with the group.
The four-part series will be called ‘My Life As A Rolling Stone’ and will air on BBC Two and iPlayer this summer. Each episode will last one hour and will be dedicated to the legendary rock band and its four members: Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Ronnie Wood and Charlie Watts.
Never-before-seen interviews with the musicians (with the exception of Charlie Watts, who died last year) as well as unseen archive videos will thus draw up “intimate portraits” for each member and allow them to come back to their great career.
For the episode centered on Charlie Watts, his story will be told via archival interviews and tributes from his stage mates and colleagues in the music industry.
The band’s manager, Joyce Smyth, said in a statement: “We are delighted to celebrate 60 years of The Rolling Stones with these four films which will give fans everywhere fascinating new insight into the band.”
Meanwhile, Mick Jagger recently revealed that he will be releasing his new solo single “Strange Game” this weekend.
