The phase two era is my favorite of the Brian Jones Stones. I even like Satanic Majesties. Almost everyone seems to forget that the Rolling Stones was Brian Jones' s band. He hired Jagger and Richards. He was the creative force that made those albums so special. Brilliant musician, the ultimate pop star. RIP Brian Jones.
If I was A young musician just starting out I would begin with the Rolling Stones First album and work my way through all there albums up to There Satanic Majesties . It will get you ready for the great albums to come afterI 1967 . I took up the electric guitar because of Keith Richards. . I was so lucky to grow up with them .
Keith Richards looked to America for beggar's banquet? Brian Jones did that 10 years earlier. Mastered steel guitar and blue open tuning and harmonica and made Richards famous. What's the matter with you people
@@Methilde Thank you for recognizing and eloquently stating a core truth about the Stones. Jones's devotion to blues got them into the clubs and recording studios, but Keith's riffs & hooks with Jagger's melodies gave the Stones longevity. Their manager Andrew Loog Oldham was a surprising PR genius. 19 when the Stones hired him, he told them to stop wearing matching stage clothes and released albums without their band name on the cover (unheard of), all this while the Stones went toe-to-toe with the Beatles in 1964. Oldham also had to force Keef&Mick to write songs, their first three albums were covers; he impressed on them the necessity of creating original music to become a fully-realized band like the Beatles. The point is none of that would've mattered if Keef&Mick had no talent.
I see a bad moon rising. See that's why Mr. Jones said shortly before his leaving his life, that he wanted to do music like CCR. Ah well he was 27. He had a few years left
Jean luc Goddard didn't record or film the completed song. He was pissed that the film was edited as such. You see Brian Jones playing guitar just fine, look with your eyes open.
Not by the time Jimmy Miller produced Johnny Thunders in 1982. The two bag heads couldn't manage to get a full album together. Instead they only managed to get a 12" EP. And some were half arsed acoustic songs drenched in reverb.
Folk rock 1969? Try sitting on a fence. 1963. It's English folk but it's good English folk. Compliments of Brian Jones. And Jones was involved with country honk. Ok?
That simply isn't true. Wyman has credited himself for coming up with the riff, while messing about on a piano, but there has never been any mention of Brian Jones being involved in the writing of the song. Whoever came up with the initial riff, it was all Mick and Keith's work after that. Brian Jones played guitar on the song, that was all.
We love you had first mellotron chords? It is Brian Jones energy, that man had rhythm. Dandelion is poppy pop. What's wrong with self indulgence? Her satanic majesties request? That's proper rebellion.
No...that would be The Graham Bond Organisation on the song "Baby Can It Be True" in 1965. There were many other uses of the instrument before The Stones got their hands on it. For instance, Manfred Mann used a Mellotron on the single "Ha Ha Said The Clown".
Interesting that the actual Stones tracks are being used in this presentation… as opposed to horrific soundalike versions you sometimes hear in these docs but goddamn… the sanctimonious verbal outpourings of the assorted journos is cringe as all fuck
The band recreated some 19thc whiteboy folk that never existed. CCR I hope was not considered roots. It was a contemporaneous slant at America, swamp rock guy down. Yeah. Brian Jones dug it.
Gimme shelter intro sounds like Brian Jones. Repetitive melodic. Ok Richards gets some credit. But I know Brian Jones . It is the song. I mean the song.
I see you have a thing for Brian. By Let It Bleed Brian was finished, that's the plain truth. He had no part in writing or playing on "Gimme Shelter". He barely merits a credit for appearing on Let It Bleed. He played autoharp on "You Got The Silver"...no guitar, and certainly no writing. This Jones mythologising is wishful thinking.
@@ursulaplatt5000 I know as much as I have read in numerous books and interviews, including the recording session logs and Brian Jones had nothing to do with Gimme Shelter. I'm a fan of Brian Jones, what he brought to The Rolling Stones was priceless, they would have been nothing without him, I mean it was his band from the start, but by the time Let It Bleed was recorded he was finished musically, sad, but that's the way his life played out. I'm also a fan of reality, not myth making. You believe what you like Ursula, it's your business. I'm going to stick with the official version(s) from the people who played on the records and wrote the songs.
It doesn't sound like Keith Richards. And there isn't documentation of the instrumentals. The intro, not played live often. Man, connect the dots. I'm tired.
Oh please what the fuck you know ,I seen queen ,I can not stand queen ,rubbish opera crap rock ,zeppelin very good band in the studio ,saw them once back in the day ,they were good but Jimi was sloppy plant kept screaming a bit to much ,seen the stones several times back then. ,stones are unbelievable grest performers , the greatest concert I have ever seen.
