In the 1960s, The Rolling Stones were managed by Andrew Loog Oldham.

… move by Loog Oldham. In Charlie Is My Darling filmmaker Peter Whitehead (Tonite Lets All Make Love In London) goes on a tour of Ireland. Along the way, he interviews the group members and films them in hotel rooms and changing rooms. He also shot a lot of live material and fan quotes.
