Many of them have gladly turned
up time and again: Mick Jagger, who
has been on the cover twenty-seven
times sometimes alone, sometimes
with the band or Keith claims the
all-time record. The shrewdest
among our cover subjects collaborat-
ed with us in the creation and refine-
ment of their public images. Many of
those powerful pictures have since
grown to define an era. When I
started
Rolling Stone
in Novem-
ber 1967, the magazines initial char-
ter was to cover rock & roll music
with intelligence and respect. Even
then, we knew the fervor sweeping
our generation encompassed more
than just music. And so we gradually
broadened the charter to include
everything the music touched, em-
braced or informed: politics, movies,
television, video games, the Internet,
sports, crime, comic books, gurus,
groupies, hippies, Jesus freaks,
narcs, pimps, drugs and all the other
forms of American social behavior,
pathological, heroic and otherwise.
These events and personalities
were captured for the cover of
Rolling Stone
by some of the
finest photographers of our time. A
partial list would include Annie Lei-
bovitz, Mark Seliger, Richard Ave-
don, Anton Corbijn, Albert Watson,
Herb Ritts, David LaChapelle, Martin
Schoeller, Hiro, Platon, Francesco
Scavullo, Matt Mahurin and Matthew
Rolston. In addition, a great roster of
illustrators and cartoonists have con-
jured and invented for the cover: Matt
Groening, Mike Judge, Garr y
Trudeau, Trey Parker and Matt
Stone, Ralph Steadman, Maurice
Sendak, Paul Davis, Milton Glaser,
Robert Grossman, Gottfried Heln-
wein, Daniel Maffia, Andy Warhol
and Anita Kunz, among others.
Many of these covers have been
controversial, even shocking, so

This book,
the complete collection of
Rolling Stone
s covers from
1967 to the present, represents not just the evolution of a magazine but a
record of our times. For almost four decades, no surer sign has heralded the
arrival of a performer, artist or personality than an appearance on the cover
of
Rolling Stone
. Virtually every important rock musician and movie
star has appeared on one of the nearly one thousand covers reproduced
here, along with the politicians, comedians, cartoon characters,
filmmakers, pop singers and TV actors who have helped to shape our era.
