Why Altamont went so wrong for the Rolling Stones and everyone else

We're recasting Nate's 2022 interview with Joel Selvin author of "Altamont: The Rolling Stones, the Hells Angels, and the Inside Story of Rock's Darkest Day" in which he details who was at most fault for the disastrous rock festival and how it broke the spirits of three bands involved: The Rolling Stones, The Grateful Dead and the Jefferson Airplane.
