Download A Prince Among Stones: That Business with The Rolling Stones and Other Adventures AudioBook Free
"He is a great financial brain for the marketplace. He plays that like I play electric guitar. So long as there's a look on Rupert's face, I'm cool." - Keith Richards on Prince Rupert LowensteinIn 1968 Mick Jagger couldn't realize why The Rolling Rocks were broke. The man he called for help was a German prince, a merchant banker. They forged an unlikely alliance which re-invented the business enterprise of rock 'n' roll. As being a youthquake shook the Establishment, Prince Rupert Loewenstein thrived in both worlds, never relinquishing his elegance or decorum. For practically 40 years Prince Rupert caused the Rocks as - in his own words - "a mixture of bank administrator, psychiatrist, and nanny," usually enthralled along with his clients but often bemused and exasperated with them, too. Coolly impartial and dryly humorous, this is a refreshingly different take on the rock 'n' spin world from within its internal sanctum.
