Great job. Brian and Keith always put two guitars together well. Time forgets Brian’s guitar and only gives Keith’s guitar credit. This is one of those songs that Brian’s guitar dominates.
Thank you for your comment. I only found out this year they played this song at their very first gig at the Marquee in 1962. It's where it all started for them. No surprise it was one of their strongest early arrangements IMO.
Yep , that’s the ‘ real ‘ Rolling Stones ‘ as I remember them . Caught them in concert in Melbourne at The Palais theatre , St. Kilda ; what a treat . My favourite band of all time . Brian was a genius . Would have given anything for the opportunity to meet him / them . Their music will live on for ever 👍
I had the great privilege of seeing the Rolling Stones in concert at the Theatre Royal in Christchurch, New Zealand in February 1965.I was 15 years of age and had already become interested in Blues music.I recall when the curtains opened there was Brian Jones with his Vox guitar and he made it talk .Only a nine song concert as they were still a young band. I honestly felt Brian was the Rolling Stones with his Blues background and what a disappointment it was when Brian was tossed from his own band and to live a very short life. He will never be forgotten.Thank you Brian Jones and uo6ur memory lives on. RIP.
The EARLY Stones were the best with Brian Jones. Mick also sounds great along with the rest of the Group. They were a good contrast, with their gritty rhythm & blues style, to the Beatles.
Brian Jones was (is) the epidemy of 60s London Cool. He had the hair, the weird clothes, and he terrified every American parent from coast to coast. Gotta love him. Oh yeah, he played guitar like an old Blues musician straight from Mississippi.
There's a great deal of _(understandable)_ nostalgia for the early Stones. In fact, I feel it too. But come to think of it, it's not just the Stones, but that whole era that I miss.
There are more than two guitars in mix ...one plays fifths riffing 12 bar blues,one accentuates melody by playing just chords and seventh chords and one is kind of unison with harmonica playing at some moments and is playing solo work and different fills and licks while Jagger is singing...all of those could be obviously overdubbed the way Les Paul and Buddy Holly used to do with studio and live takes and than mixed...When performing songs like this live Richards was busy with power chords while Brian used to try to emulate as much as he could by playing and fills,licks and chord changes at once...so he was much more busy than Keith early in their carrier...Brian was all over the guitar neck
He would have left the Stones.Getting the sack just expedited that process.Brian was a talent but never a team player..How the band put up with his selfish antics for as long as they did is a mystery
Unfortunately, I don't think Brian would have lived to be as old as the other Stones, even if he hadn't drowned. He had a enlarged heart and liver from years of drug and alcohol abuse. I think he might have lived a few more years, but with those issues along with his acute asthma, I doubt he would have made it to 40 and that would have been if he was lucky. But I also think the Brian Jones years were the very best of the Rolling Stones, there was more creativity when Brian was there and as Bill once said, "What Brian brought to their music was a flavor." Once he was gone, so was the flavor and the creativity.
Hugely underrated within his own band too. You might know this story already: Keith wanted Bill to use a Fender bass from the mid-Sixties to get a Motown-like sound. Bill wasn't convinced and that disagreement rumbled on until 69 when Bill got his short-scale Fender bass. That's partly the reason Keith started either doubling bass parts or playing the parts himself after 65.
In Jazz the epitome of cool is Miles. In Rock, either Brian or Jimi. I saw two Stones concerts, 65 and 66. Brian was the focus of attention. Mick did keep up, though.
Unfortunately just as he was very good multiinstrumentalist, he lived very sad experiences that drove him to death through alcohol and drugs. Many english beat and blues groups tried to played the harmonica as he did but they could get that beautiful sound, he was the first to use the slide guitar and he introduced Bo Diddley beat including the sounds of his guitar, listen Mona or Not fade away. He was a genuine blues man.
@@ROLLOGUITAR we share the same birthday. He was always my favourite saw them in 64 been a fan ever since love their old stuff Brian’s music talent was far superior to the rest ,
I first came across it on their 'On Air' album. That version is quite different and I went back to '12x5' to find this one with a more laid back groove
Brian provided a very solid rhythm base what kept Keith on the track. Without him... well, anybody can compare for example the "Get off my cloud" actual and original version. The original version was very tight rhythmically. The actual... well the actual version is on the border of falling apart.
@@rookmaster7502 love it .Alexis Korner once said in thé early days Brian would pic up Keith s axe ....to rétuned it and be listenable ! As al kooper done with Dylan who sung and played slight l'y un tuned ....
Brian was totally dedicated to R& B . The Stones made a good job, not to say phantastic. Sadly he (Brian) came into drugs. He tought Keith to play guitar and get the spirit.
Brian Jones Hermoso brillante tímido callado Las drogas y el alcohol lo llevaron al infinito Siempre te recordaré como mi amor 🥹 💙💙💙💙💙💙 💋💋💋💋💋💋 Gm 4/7/23/!!!!!!
The Stones style changed radically when Brian left. Maybe because of Mick Taylor. Or maybe Brian contributed more than we know. Anyway they SUDDENLY became a different band.
My guess is two-fold. Brian had been a seminal early 60s blues guitarist and a wonderful multi-instrumental colourist during the Stones 65-67 pop period, just before the 68-72 golden period. But bands like Cream, the Jimi Hendrix Experience, Santana and Led Zeppelin were changing the blues-rock scene. It's clear that Mick Taylor was brought on board to allow the Stones to create more improvisational music live on-stage and in the studio. It seems to me that the Stones changed their music, as the times changed and its highly unlikely that Brian would have been very interested in the kind of virtuosic stuff the Stones were playing post 69. The official reason Brian gave for leaving the group was his distaste of the new material on Let It Bleed. Yet Midnight Rambler seems tailor-made for his slide work.

Poor Brian Jones--wasted by such over-the-top drug use. He was the man who got the Stones together, and then like so many others, threw it all away on drugs. RIP Brian
Brian's music is legendary, which I try, in my own small way, to keep alive in spirit on this channel. Thanks for dropping a line. I hope you enjoy other content on here. I will start making more Stones related content soon after taking a short break.
The original and best version by the two composers of this song Walter Brown (vocals) and Jay McShann (Piano). For some strange reason, the photo here is of Brownie McGhee and not Walter Brown, who, as far as I know, did not play the guitar ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xObTsgz1bik.html This was recorded in the early 1940s when Charlie Parker was with Jay's band, but he does not play on this.
Thanks for your comment William. Being a jazz fan too, I love the frequent connections between that genre and The Stones. Whether it's Brian's teenage obsession with Julian 'Cannonball" Adderley, Keith's mum playing hours of Sarah Vaughan, Ella Fitzgerald and Billie Holiday, Mick Taylor's integration of some of John Coltrane's ideas in his solos and of course Charlie's background. These guys rarely get the credit they deserve as musicians.
Originally this appeared on the LP 12x5, but as someone else has pointed out this particular mix, I think is from the EP 5x5, which has subsequently been used in a number of compilation albums.
In 1962 yes.. Maybe there would never have been any Rolling stones without Brian Jones, you're right. But you can be also sure there wouldn't be still Rolling stones in 2022 without Jagger.
The glimmer asses were crazy jealous of Brian. Mick's attempt at harmonica in later years sounds infantile compared to Brian's effortless genius sound.
They sound different and to be honest I prefer Brian's harmonica sound. But Mick came up with the goods more often than not. Gimme Shelter and Midnight Rambler are two of his best.
