The 40th anniversary edition of Rolling Stone magazine has a series of interviews with iconic figures from music politics and culture of the last 40 years. Jagger, Jimmy Carter, Dylan, Scorsese, Neil Young, Jack Nicholson, Jane Fonda, McCartney and more. Some great quotes about the sixties:
Patti Smith: "Rock n Roll is more than music. It is a consciousness."
Michael Moore: "Rock n Roll didn't mean just music. It was a coat of armour against everything coming at you."
Keith Richards: "England was bloody boring and something had to happen. Rock n Roll happened basically."
