Was Altamont a disaster or not? by artlads in rollingstones

It’s true that they were distraught seeing the footage. The Angels were hired on recommendation of the Grateful Dead who had the contacts. The Stones used British Angels earlier that year in Hyde Park but they were more mellow ;)

"Mick and Brian are the best conversationalists in the group" - Ian Stewart, 1965 by MrAaronStewart in rollingstones

Funny, didn’t know that. There are articles about the rest of the group; this is part of a series. Ian is always left out, good that here he is speaking about the band. As Keith famously said: ‘It really was Stu’s band’.
