Mick Jagger's 50!

BBC Radio 2
on BBC Radio 2

What a Drag It Is Getting Old
The original Jumping Jack Flash celebrates his 50th birthday today. Rolling Stones biographer Philip Norman reflects on the life and career of the social-climbing rock infidel, the sex icon who strutted his way across the world stage from enfant terrible of the permissive generation to pillar of the 1990s establishment, via the "greatest rock and roll band in the world".
This programme explores the differences between the real Mick Jagger and the myth, with classic cuts from Jagger's archive interviews, Rolling Stones music, and the views of Lord Rees-Mogg, John Birt, Mary Whitehouse, Long John Baldry, Gerry Marsden and Ros Miles. Producer Trevor Aston
