Music Weekly podcast: The Rolling Stones and the Beach Boys

Welcome to another slice of Music Weekly. Kieran and Alexis are joined this week by Michael Hann.

Stanley Booth's The True Adventures of the Rolling Stones, published in 1984, has been hailed as a classic rock'n'roll volume. As the book is reissued, Stanley talks to Sean O'Hagan about the horror of Hells Angels at the Altamont gig, his "daredevil" adventures with the band, and how he got off the road to destruction.

Brian is Back! Yes, in Singles Club, believe it or not we've got a rare entry from the Beach Boys … And we'll have some of your thoughts on last week's singles.

When her mum smashed up her guitar, Louise Distras wrote a song called Bullets and set off on a mission to bring punk, politics and protest back in to the musical mainstream. She came in to talk to Charlotte Richardson Andrews about planning a musical revolution. Plus we get a sneak preview of Bullets.

Next week we'll be podcasting from the Great Escape in Brighton.

Thanks for listening. Leave your thoughts below the line.
