Gone from the band was founder member Brian Jones, replaced by Mick Taylor from John Mayalls Bluesbreakers. Gone too were the Top Tenladen 30minute sets played over inadequate PA systems to crowds of screaming, gawping teenagers. In their place was a fullyfledged 75minute rock show drawing heavily on the new Stones albums Beggars Banquet and Let It Bleed, utilising innovative lighting and staging. Led by the Glimmer Twins  Mick Jagger and Keith Richards  the Rolling Stones rocked across America on a 24date tour whose essence is captured in the live album Get Yer YaYas Out, heralded by many as the finest live rock album of all time. From an unpublicised opening night in Fort Collins, Colorado through to the tragic events at Altamont, California a month later, Is Everybody Ready For The Next Band? (taking its title from Chip Moncks nightly stage introduction for the band) mixes contemporaneous press reports with previously unpublished firsthand accounts to present the story of a tour that has gone down in history as the first rock tour of the modern era, in the words of the people who were there.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Spenwood Books Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47953045160181,"sku":"DADAX1915858569","price":32.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/5804\/8501\/files\/711vspqh81L.jpg?v=1775484905","url":"https:\/\/ergodebooks.com\/products\/is-everybody-ready-for-the-next-band-the-rolling-stones-1969-us-tour","provider":"Ergodebooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
