More about this title

About the Composer: Mick Jagger

Mick Jagger co-wrote the majority of the Rolling Stones' catalog alongside Keith Richards, establishing one of rock music's most prolific and influential songwriting partnerships. His compositions span five decades and define multiple generations of rock music, from blues-influenced early work through psychedelic experimentation to stadium rock and beyond.

For guitarists learning from this era, Jagger's songwriting reveals how vocal melody and rhythm guitar interlock. His understanding of hook-driven composition and structural variety makes these songs essential study for anyone learning to balance lyrical and instrumental identity in rock writing.

Why we love this

This collection captures the exact guitar voicings and textures that define the Stones' most iconic recordings, transcribed with precision across five decades of evolution. Guitarists get authentic transcriptions of Richards' riff work, Jones' textural layers, and Taylor's fluid lead lines all in one resource. The 50th anniversary edition and dedicated riff section make this both a playable study guide and a piece of music history.

What to expect

These 50 songs move from the raw, blues-soaked energy of early Stones hits through sophisticated arrangements, psychedelic textures, and swaggering arena rock. You'll feel the evolution of Richards' riff mastery, the interplay between lead and rhythm, and the confidence that comes from playing one of rock's most enduring catalogs.

Who it's for

Guitarists seeking accurate transcriptions of classic rock guitar parts and serious students of rock composition who want to understand how these songs were actually played. This book serves experienced players looking to build repertoire and learners who want to decode the techniques behind iconic riffs and solos.

How to get the most out of it

  • Study the Keith riffs section first to internalize the rhythmic pocket and signature bends that anchor these arrangements, then tackle full transcriptions with that foundation in place.
  • Pay close attention to alternate tunings and dropped strings, which appear frequently across these songs; verify your tuning setup before working through each piece.
  • Listen to the original recordings while reading the TAB to match the exact tone and articulation choices, especially for vibrato width, muting techniques, and string dampening.
  • Work through the songs chronologically by album to hear how Richards and Taylor's approach to the instrument developed and evolved across different musical contexts.

How to use it

Use this as a master reference for guitarists working on classic rock repertoire in ensemble, recital, or solo performance contexts. Individual transcriptions work as study pieces for building technique in rock styles, while the collection serves as a complete curriculum for understanding Stones-era guitar writing and arrangement.

Skills your students will build

  • Transcribing and reading guitar TAB with accuracy across multiple tuning systems
  • Identifying and executing Keith Richards' signature riff patterns and bending techniques
  • Understanding rhythm guitar arrangement within a band context
  • Recognizing textural and tonal variety in rock compositions from 1964-1971
  • Developing finger independence for simultaneous rhythm and melodic lines
