Sam Cutler is the former tour manager for the Rolling Stones and the Grateful Dead.
"A quintessential addition to any die-hard rock and roll fan's
bookcase." -- Daily Vanguard
"An entertaining, eye-opening memoir ... the book hits a
particularly colourful stride with the Stones' arrival in LA to
finish Let It Bleed and rehearse for the dates ahead." -- Uncut
Magazine
"Cutler is one of the select few people alive uniquely qualified to
report first-hand on all of the music and the madness surrounding
the events of that historic tour, including those which occurred at
the infamous free concert at Altamont ... Sam Cutler's You Cant
Always Get What You Want is a fascinating historical snapshot not
only on the life and heady times of the Stones, the Dead and
Altamont, but of the Sixties themselves. As such, it is not to be
missed." -- Blog Critics
"Effortlessly readable, packed with entertaining, sleazy,
behind-the-scenes tales. These include Cutler's fistfight with rock
impresario Bill Graham outside the Stones' dressing room door, a
bizarre encounter with the Butter Queen of Dallas (think Plaster
Caster, except with, well, butter), plus a riveting take on the
horrors of Altamont." Portland Mercury
"His memoir of his time with first the Stones and then the Grateful
Dad brings to life hippie-era delights (lots of acid) and an
encroaching darkness ... he unleashes one killer road tale after
another." -- Rolling Stone
