NUEVA YORK (AP) - Cuando Mick Jagger estuvo preparando ideas para una
exposición que destacó la carrera de los Rolling Stones durante cinco
décadas, quiso recrear el ambiente de la banda en sus primeros años.
Por lo tanto, tuvo un equipo para recrear el primer departamento de Londres ( Edith Grove 102) que él y sus compañeros de banda compartieron en 1962, con platos sucios, botellas de cerveza y discos de blues desparramados en todo el piso.
"Eso fue lo más extraño en realidad ... El edificio aún está allí - no es un edificio que ha sido derribado o cualquier cosa, está justo a la vuelta de la esquina de donde vivo en la actualidad", dijo Jagger. "Es muy revelador el espacio ... y huele a él y se siente como él.
"Acabo de recordar lo que realmente era", agregó.
"Había muchos lugares como ese en los primeros años 60 ... no querrías vivir allí ahora", dijo Charlie Watts.The Stones también recreó su estudio de grabación, completo con instrumentos originales, para "Exhibitionism - The Rolling Stones", la exposición de la banda que debutó en Industria en Nueva York el sábado después de su lanzamiento en Londres a principios de este año. Incluye coloridos trajes de gira, el libro lírico de Jagger, el diario de Keith Richards en 1963, el kit de batería de juguete de Watts y varias fotografías, desde carteles hasta portadas de revistas.
"Nada de eso me hizo llorar particularmente, algo de lo cual me hizo reír", dijo Jagger sobre los recuerdos.La exhibición se desarrolla en Nueva York hasta el 12 de marzo de 2017. Algunas de las piezas son obras de Andy Warhol, Alexander McQueen y John Pasche, quien diseñó el logotipo de la lengua icónica de Stones.
"Es como tropezar con recuerdos dondequiera que me busques", dijo Richards. "Doblas la esquina (y dices)," Ah, ahí es donde la dejé, ya sea una guitarra o un pedazo de ropa, todo suena una campana en alguna parte ".
Ronnie Wood, que se unió al grupo en 1975, dijo que disfrutó de ver los "pequeños motivos" a lo largo de la exposición, y añadió que uno de sus recuerdos favoritos fue unirse a la banda para su primera presentación pública - en su cumpleaños.
"Tuve que aprender todo el catálogo de los Stones para estar listo para ir al escenario el 1 de junio, mi cumpleaños, para mi primer show público con ellos", dijo sonriendo.
Cuando se le preguntó cuáles son sus objetivos futuros para la banda, Watts dijo: "Vivir con vida es lo más importante en este momento, o Levantarse por la mañana ".

Mick Jagger , "Now you can visit the Rolling Stones' 1962 apartment"
NEW YORK (AP) — When Mick Jagger was coming up with ideas for an exhibition highlighting The Rolling Stones' five-decade long career, he wanted to re-create the mood of the band in its early years.
So, he had a team recreate the first London apartment (102 , Edith Grove) he and his band mates shared in 1962, complete with dirty dishes, beer bottles and blues records placed throughout the flat.
"That was the weirdest thing really. ... The building is still there — it's not a building that's been knocked down or anything, it's right around the corner from where I actually live now," Jagger said. "It's very redolent of the space ... and it smells like it and feels like it.
"I just remembered how it really was," he added.
"There were a lot of places like that in the early '60s ... you wouldn't want to live there now," Charlie Watts said.
The Stones also re-created their recording studio, complete with original instruments, for "Exhibitionism — The Rolling Stones," the band's exhibit that debuted at Industria in New York City on Saturday after launching in London earlier this year. It includes colorful tour outfits, Jagger's lyric book, Keith Richards' 1963 diary, Watts' toy drum kit and various photographs, from posters to magazine covers.
"None of it made me cry particularly. Some of it made me laugh," Jagger said of the memorabilia.
The exhibit run in New York through March 12, 2017. Some of the pieces are works by Andy Warhol, Alexander McQueen and John Pasche, who designed the Stones' iconic tongue logo.
"It's like bumping into memories everywhere you look for me," Richards said. "You turn the corner (and say), 'Oh, that's where I left it. Whether it's a guitar or a piece of clothing, everything sort of rings a bell somewhere."
Ronnie Wood, who joined the group in 1975, said he enjoyed seeing the "little motifs" throughout the exhibit, and added that one of his favorite memories was joining the band for his first public performance — on his birthday.
"I had to learn the entire Stones back catalog to get ready to go onstage on June 1, my birthday, for my first public show with them," he said, smiling.
Of his highlights, Richards said, laughing: "I can pick out a few lows but we won't bother with them, but otherwise, it's been pretty much a high all the time."
The Stones will release a new album of blues cover songs called "Blue & Lonesome" on Dec. 2. When asked what his future goals are for the band, Watts said: "Staying alive I think is the biggest thing at the moment, or getting up in the morning."
