From March 1965 to May 1966, photographer Bent Rej enjoyed unique access to The Rolling Stones, having become one of the trusted inner circle of friends and associates, accompanying them on their first full European outing: the Satisfaction tour. This extraordinary special edition presents Rej' s collection of intimate photographs of this charismatic group of young musicians, and revealing a forgotten time in the history of rock. Revelling in the first fruits of popular success they are nevertheless unaware of what the future will hold. Only Mick Jagger begins to pose self-consciously in front of the lens, and it is only with hindsight that we realise that at this point, The Rolling Stones were perched on the edge of the heights - or abyss - of superstardom.

Bent Rej was born in Denmark and started working as a photographer for one of Denmark' s leading newspapers in the early 1960s. In 1965, he began taking pictures of rock and pop stars, which is when he met and got to know The Rolling Stones as friends. Since the 1970s he has built a reputation of world renown working in the fashion and advertising industries. He is also a highly acclaimed garden and flower photographer, as well as being an acknowledged expert on architecture. He has collaborated with Robert Dallas on a book about Provence and its buildings. Bent divides his time between Provence, London, and Copenhagen
