Gered Mankowitz chats about his iconic photographs of The Rolling Stones and Jimi Hendrix and how Brian Jones was a handful

Legendary rock 'n' roll photographer Gered Mankowitz joins Sounds and Vision to talk and reminisce with Andrew on a variety of subjects. The two chat about how Brian Jones was a troubled soul, the story behind the famous Rolling Stones' Primrose Hill photo session, Marianne Faithfull's early days, and how Jimi Hendrix's landmark London performance at Bag O'Nails went over Gered and Andrew's heads. But that's only part of the conversation and part of the story — listen in and enjoy.
