They have a new record out: Exile on Main Street, a great title for the new Rolling Stones: the once-ragged band of London’s cold-water flats are now English tax refugees living on France’s Côte d’Azur. Stories of Bill Wyman lunching with Marc Chagall appear in the press. The gaunt outlaw of rock ‘n’ roll, Keith Richards, lives in high-ceilinged splendor at Villa Nellcote, once commandeered by the Nazis during the Second World War. There drug taking reaches prodigious proportions, threatening everything. But I am removed from these stories. Dominique Tarle is the French photographer who photographs them (magnificently) during this time. It is when they arrive in America to begin the tour that promotes the record that I once again join them in Los Angeles. (FROM AN AMERICAN STROY)
