Edition limited to 5000 signed and numbered copies (n. 3169). Each book personally signed by at least 9 of the contributors.

Over 600 photographs are included, many of which are published exclusively in Blinds & Shutters - with Rolling Stones photos and Beatles photos. The fascinating text that runs throughout the book is written by 93 contributors and is the result of five years' international research and close collaboration revealing first-hand accounts of the events of the Sixties and acclaimed as the definitive cult chronicle of that decade. Photographer Michael Cooper worked together with leading musicians (the Rolling Stones, the Beatles, Marianne Faithfull, Eric Clapton), artists (Francis Bacon, Andy Warhol, Peter Blake and David Hockney) and writers (William Burroughs, Jean Genet and Allen Ginsberg). His intimate images and candid portraits of their lives are here recorded with comments and recollections by friends and associates. Forewords by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards.
