Legendary rock ‘n’ roll photographer Gered Mankowitz joins Sounds and Vision to talk and reminisce with Andrew on a variety of subjects. The two chat about how Brian Jones was a troubled soul, the story behind the famous Rolling Stones’ Primrose Hill photo session, Marianne Faithfull’s early days, and how Jimi Hendrix’s landmark London performance at Bag O’Nails went over Gered and Andrew’s heads. But that’s only part of the conversation and part of the story — listen in and enjoy.
Andrew Loog Oldham is the original manager/producer of the Rolling Stones, founder of Immediate Records, writer of STONED, 2STONED, and ROLLING STONED, and the longtime lead DJ on the Underground Garage channel on SiriusXM. Sounds and Vision is the next chapter.
