That can mean only one thing: the return of Satan's Jesters, otherwise known as the Rolling Stones. Just in time, too, to keep rock from losing its evil leer for good. After a fairly quiescent 18 months-the Altamont tragedy sobered a lot of people, the Stones included; four deaths will do that-Mick Jagger and his fellows are back with a new U.S. distributor (Atlantic) and their own label, Rolling Stones Records...

...uses the analogy of stock-market speculators who, when the market crashed in the '30s, were so defeated that some of them committed suicide. " Everybody does that. We're trying to learn how to avoid it, to identify your self with something bigger... God. Not just Jehovah, Lucifer, Satan, or Christ, but with all these things.
