Cocksucker Blues, Robert Frank’s infamous Rolling Stones documentary, takes a notoriously controversial look at 1972’s Exile on Main Street tour. Because the documentary was made with several cameras lying around (welcoming anyone traveling on tour to pick one up and begin filming), Mick Jagger and the rest of the Stones are depicted as typical rock stars: snorting coke backstage, romping around with naked roadies, acting high out of their minds, etc. Because the filmmaker’s approach was so candid, the Stones (who originally commissioned the doc) refused to allow its release. Ever since then, Cocksucker Blues has been under a court order that forbids the film’s content from being shown unless its director is present. Although Cocksucker Blues is screened every now and then, it has been extremely difficult to bootleg….until now. Thanks to some late 80’s tape trading, Cocksucker Blues is now streaming (in nine parts) on the Internet. Let the hedonistic scandals begin!
