Pretty Scandalous

Internet had finally acquired one very curious and scandalous documentary film, which was made about The Rolling Stones way back in 1972 by the infamous photographer and cameraman Robert Frank during the band’s North American tour, said NME. The most interesting part about this movie was always based on the band’s hatred of it. Eventually, large parts of a documentary called “Cocksucker Blues” were uploaded onto Flavorwire.com on August 19 and still remain available to all viewers. “Cocksucker Blues” was never shown in public due to The Rolling Stones’ anticipation of it because according to their opinion it portrays them in the very negative light. Musicians just began to dislike the fact that Robert Frank had decided to show them while they’ve acted in the weird way behind the scenes. Well, things like this will become history anyway, so maybe The Rolling Stones have to understand something about themselves, their past and present. After seeing this documentary the band’s guitarist Keith Richards said that if at least one man will take a look at it then they shall never enter the US again. Pretty harsh remark that will make people go for this documentary even more, so Richards was too fast to say it. Nevertheless, maybe it could’ve been scandalous back in the early 70’s, and today it’s just another autobiographical thing.
