@@aaronsmith5433 Great art? Oh, God, really? I was raised on Mahler, Wagner and Beethoven, and you want to teach me what great art is. And, secondly. Learn how to properly write and how to use commas.
3 great pieces of music shaped the late 60's for me and others... "Light My Fire" the Doors. "Like a Rolling Stone" Bob Dylan. "I Can't Get No Satisfaction" the Rolling Stones.
Plus so many others !!😂 Can you pretend to sum the 60's with those 3 ?? be serious!! and by the way "like a rolling stone is from 65 , the very half of 60's.. Sorry I don't want to make fun about your ranking but it's just impossible to take only those 3 , although I like madly 2 of them ..
I was afraid of the Stones when they came out,and Mom would call the parents of friends and tell them I wouldn't come over if they were played. I was 7 years old. The Beatles were a mania and I really believe they did everything to please my age group. Nice music for an innocent boy ,but not for a boy in adolescence and who was first inspired by James Brown. The brothers of friends weren't happy about me stopping them playing the Stones,but did their best to change my interests in music . The breaker was when a friend gave me an LP by the Stones. It was the Hex LP . I liked many of the songs other than ": Let's spend the night together" I was young and thought why do a song about staying up all night and eating popcorn and watching movies ❓ I was at about 14 when my mom opened the door of my room while I was playing "'Lets spent the night together" and said " I don't see ever want to ever hear that song when company is over" ❗ I said " Why "❓She said " It's a song about staying up all night and having sex with a girl " ❗ Thanks mom ,and now it immediately became my favorite song and most of my Beatles LPs moved to the bottom shelf .🤪😜❗
Mick Taylor and Nicky Hopkins. Throw in Jones and you can define this group by who it left out! Still, they did have more staying power than any of us could have imagined.
Swagger. Thats the word. They have amazing endless Swagger. RIP Charlie. Wow love you Stones, so glad that I got to see you live. The show was amazing. Even my father was prattling on about these old boys should give it up when they were just early 40's lol. Amazing, wonderful..
@@DAVEBROWNE2004 I'm just curious as to WHY The Grateful Dead recommended the Hell's Angels to Mick Jagger in the first place. Surely they must have known how violent and murderous they were, at least that's what I would think.
I was there , 3 rd row WOW . First concert, then I went to Central Park to see The Jefferson Airplane ,front row, went back stage and interviewed Grace Slick. Those were the days my friend, we thought they would never end.
Had this vid in my library for years .Brought out this A.M. to watch the guys I grew up with and fortunately still breathing the same air with. They’ll always be an ONLY. Rocky
They were Brian's blues band. He added an ethereal quality to them later that kept them up with the sound of the time. He was a brilliant musician that got sucked into the vortex of drugs fame, and darkness, with a questionable death. Mick Taylor made them rock your socks off. I read an interview in a guitar magazine recently where Keith Richards said " ...I miss his tone..," So do we. I love Ronnie Wood. He IS a Stone. But " Let it Bleed " through " Exile " was their zenith. There were some great tunes and hits afterward. But " Sticky Fingers " grabs your head by the ears, and makes you listen, and want to listen again. I still am.
Well said but respectfully I have to say there’s a huge amount of lack of respect for Mick and Keith’s work on Let it Bleed which is arguably the greatest Stones if not rock record of all time and no Jones or Taylor. Many people say Brian Jones was the Stones or that Mick Taylor was responsible for their peak period. (They may not have been given enough credit by Mick and Keith but you really have to question how much they deserved considering what Mick and Keith could deliver! Let It Bleed was during the transitional period without either Jones or Taylor which produced Gimme Shelter, Midnight Rambler, Monkey Man, You can’t always get what you want, etc... all guitars were by Keith and Jagger did some of the greatest harp ever played on a rock record. Hats off to producer Jimmy Miller, pianist Nicky Hopkins and saxophone by Bobby Keys. Yet there’s no doubt the prior Beggars Banquet again Jagger/Richards were just starting to peak while Brian faded and Mick Taylor wasn’t yet there. Then of course Sticky Fingers is as good as it gets, while Exile was a great record they retreated creatively. Great songs but no 2000 light years, Sympathy for the devil, Jumping Jack Flash, Street Fighting Man, Monkey Man, Gimme Shelter. However the early 70’s were going retro with laid back country, blues, straight forward rock n roll.
I disagree with nothing you stated. Brian was sadly toast by late '68' and Jagger/Richards picked up the flag in ' 65 ' for songwriting ( which was where the money wss (( and still is )) and continue to carry it, even if they hobble around while doing so. We all have our favorites. Mine are Beggars-Exile era. My comment failed to clarify that it was Mick Taylor's tone that Keef missed. But Sticky Fingers was, and still is an incredible album. Brian helped keep them musically relevant through ' 69 ' with his musicianship on various instruments. Some people like to argue what was " their best album. " I just say " favorites ". Their best album may be their next one.
@@drvee1983 Exactly how any discussion about something subjective like music should go. Yet we both know the basic facts. I’d say that it is the opinion of most rock n roll especially Stones fans to say the Beggars through Exile period was the best and it was again mostly driven by Jagger/Richards through the transitional period which would have broken most bands if it wasn’t for the super team who had been leading all along. Jones has his place as does Taylor but it’s the best band mostly thanks to Mick and Keith. It wouldn’t have been the same class act without Charlie’s drumming style nor Bill. They were not only musically important but their down to earth personalities probably were a big help in keeping Mick and Keith grounded as well.
i love them all and every iteration of the band. RIP Charlie. The heart and soul of the band. Keef's other drummer from the Wino's is doing quite nicely but he lacks being Charlie. RIP Brian and thank you Mick Taylor.
Thank you for focusing on those two years. I was born too late to be part of that. The thing for me is they came out of that. With the most important rock‘n‘roll record ever. EXILE ON MAIN STREAT.
We loved the fact that the Stones sounded raw. We didn't want things to be too polished. We didn't have fancy foot pedals and distortion makers, we just cranked the amps and guitars up the best we could to get good tones. We loved the blues, too, at least where I was in Ohio. IMO, the best albums were, "Beggars Banquet," "Let It Bleed," and the one with "Brown Sugar" and "Gimme Shelter" on it. I saw them back in the day and they packed the entire "Rubber Bowl" in Akron, Ohio. Keith Richards says, "I never had a problem with drugs, I had a lot of problems with police." My personal all-time Stones song is, "Street Fighting Man," because at the time the record was released, we really were fighting and marching in the streets, so it became sort of the national anthem of the protesters.
John, you are speaking of the album’s produced by Jimmy Miller. He even played drums and percussion on some tracks. Mick Taylor played on releases Let it Bleed through It’s only R&R
There's a whole lot of stuff that marks the end of 60s. The biggest in music was the last Beatles album and them breaking up .world is still talking about it 50years later,I DON'T hear anything about stones at all in that context,yeah they marked the end of an Era by some getting killed at a concert.If you know history of music Tyey didn't hire stones for Woodstock because of Street fighting man being released, they didn't want a riot that did happen at that concert Atlanta I guess.someone was killed going to a rock concert..First stones record was Lennon McCartney written. They also learned to write through Lennon McCartney.,Jagger has said so himself.Jagger and Richard's are no Lennon And M cCartney.But then nobody is ,they are hands down the most successful musicians of all time,especially in song writing department.i think yesterday and Something are now out doing White Chrismas S, most recorded song
I've been studying and reading about and listening to the Stones since the late 70's. They're my favorite band. This documentary is pretty damned good. Stop critiquing, and just listen for a minute. The film teaches us a great deal, and has good insights. Thanks for sharing it! We!want!the Stones!

Hey people nobody has that raw rock and roll sound like the stones do. I ve seen them live many times. Man they are the ultimate high brothers and sisters.
Brian Jones epitomizes that dark mysterious energy I associate with the late 60s which as a very small child just becoming conscious I felt and remember more than what was happening on the surface. The post-Jones Stones always seemed like a business, the beginning of that cold distant detached corporate mentality to rock that took hold in the 70s and despite punk pricking it's pretentious bubble reinforced itself in the 80s to the point where creativity was killed at birth in any act and anyone unfortunate enough to have it like Kurt Cobain was crushed in the corporate beast's machinery and spat out.
Maybe, with Mick Taylor, The Stones had a suberb fine guitarist. Ok. Maybe . Sticky Fingers, is - no doubt about it- a great record. Surely "Exile" is a great "american" album. Without hesitation, The Ron Wood Years, were/are, more or less, a good joke. But, clearly, The Jones Years, were magic. This magic, was lost without him.
When I was about 14, I was on a bus singing "Satisfaction" out loud, but not too loud. I remember catching a glimpse of this older guy looking at me. I wanna thank that guy for not yelling at me to "Shut The Fuck Up!!" I would have been crushed. 🙃
In the beginning was Brian Jones, the genesis of the Rollingstones, who was a trained musician from his formative years, his parents - Lewis & Louisa Jones were musicians as well.. Louisa was a piano teacher, taught Brian to play at a very young age.. Brian, was plagued with asthma, his parents purchased a wind instrument, clarinette to aid with his lung capacity.. Then a little later on Brian received a guitar as a gift from his parents.. Hence Jones had an edge on his other bandmates.. Brian was preforming in little jazz bands predating the Stones.. Then in 1962 , Keith & Mick happened upon the Ealing Jazz club where Alexis Korner and blues Inc. were the in house band, Brian Jones was preforming dust my broom on slide guitar which was an amazing feat.. Brian Jones was sensational and Mick & Keith were mesmerized.. Jones wanted his own band of blues cats..
Brian did write, (Ruby Tuesday, etc..(many riffs were his but stolen/credited to Jagger/Richards...it was Brian who taught Keef the open G tuning that became trademark...easy for the public to believe all the fabrications spoon fed tot hem by a less than truthful Keef/Richards , easy to rob a dead man and rewrite the truth...but many of us know Brian was the magick and always will be.
+Jorge simoes Nuno WRONG! Many songwriters (Brian Jones, Mick Taylor and Billy Preston beetween them) wrote songs for the Rolling stones, in exchange for a very pretty big payment they don´t figure in the credits. Just take a look how many albums the Rolling stones did with Brian and how many they did in the same amount of years after Brian´s death. They did so many albums with Brian because he wrote the songs for them. When Mick did things alone he made pure shit!
There is the music for a movie, written by Brian Jones, he also recorded some songs with Jimi Hendrix (until today this records are lost). But ok, I´ll stop here. Don´t make my life depend on it.
I see "Between the Buttons" as a transitional album. It was very striking when it came out, and it was clear that they were moving in another direction (along with many other bands at the time).
the British Version is a Phenomenal Album, ït is very transitional and give s us a glimmer of how Mick and Keefe could hold up a tune, Connection is my Ãll time favorite Stones song, jùs såyîn ¡😎🥚😎¡

Fools that gave Thumbs down are extremely ignorant. Don't focus on the visual glitch yet the beauty of the heart of just touches of stories of clips of the Rolling Stones. RIP Charlie and Brain. Thankful Rolling Stones keep pushing on... Rock N'Roll, Rhythm Blues and often a touch of jazz too.
I loved the stones ♥️ 🎉, and I'm always going to be a stones fan till the day I die🎉🎉.I'm strictly a stone's fan they are and always be 2nd to none 62yrs is freaking proof of that 🎉🎉
Funny that at 55:40 Keith gives that heroine addict evasive, empty eyed look when he says that there is that person who everyone just knows is not going to live a long life. Everyone has been thinking that for the past 50 years about Keith, but he's still here. Keith is amazing.
@@lyricberlin I doubt he is now anyway. No reason for it. Also no idea what you're talking about but I'm sure it was over a decade ago, and the human body sheds it's skin completely every 7 years (not to mention the blood transfusions)
Rolling Stones & the Beatles,once said you can like both but only truly love one. I really like & respect the Beatles, but the Stones are my passion! The Zones have that angst & raw sexuality that the Beatles never had.
Brian was great no doubt. Mick Taylor was incredible and gave them their greatest rock n roll band in the world belt. After Taylor they became a greatest hits review. nuff said.
Not even close. Vibe worse tracks on the Taylor years albums are significantly better than the songs you mention. Beggars is the best of non mick but it's a much more simplistic style with less need for Taylor like riffs but you still have some terrific jones slide guitar parts that he put together when he was semi aware and capable.
Lots of opinions from old men who lived vicariously through these great bands and most of us probably disagree with a lot being said but we can agree The Stones were number 2 in impact and influence behind The Beatles in the 60s.
I don’t know... they’re definitely up there, but I’ve always thought The Velvet Underground was the 2nd most influential group of the 60s. It’s close, maybe too close to call. Plus, you can’t really quantify something like that, being honest. They’re all way up there, but I definitely agree the Beatles were #1, definitely THE most influential.
@@nikolademitri731 Velvet Underground helped by Warhol were the 3rd branch to the rock tree. From the US east coast there we got The Stooges and Iggy Pop,Lou Reed ,the reinvented Bowie and the glam movement all the way to the shoe gazers.
I became a Stones fan with Jumping Jack Flash and Beggar' s Banquet. Their popsong era never left a big impression on me. From 68 to 73 they were on their top level. Songs for centuries.
I love you guys - The Beatles, The Stones - there's no basis for comparison and is just something that someone started, probably Andrew Loog Oldham, to generate ink and album sales. The Stones are a blues-based rock and roll band that grew out of the London blues scene led by guys like Cyril Davies and Alexis Korner. The Stones are deeply steeped in the blues and in a country-western blues tradition (read Nankering With The Stones by James Phelge) - The Beatles are a Liverpool rock and roll covers-band with country-western, blues, rock n' roll, movie and show tunes, English music hall, and English folk influences - which included the collaborative talents of all four members, especially the internal songwriting axis of Lennon and McCartney. The Beatles always wrote a fair share of their own recorded material and, with the soundtrack of A Hard Day's Night (UK version), were one of the first, if not the first, British bands to release an album consisting entirely of their own written material. Loog had to lock Jagger and Richards in a kitchen to get them to start writing their own material and it took them a while to come up with something suitable for The Stones to record - - though some of their early efforts -- That Girl Belongs To Yesterday, It Should Be You - - were recorded by other artists. The Beatles career really started in '59 when George Harrison joined McCartney and Lennon. While The Stones really gelled in the winter of 1963, by which time the Beatles were well on their way to international prominence. The one area where they do share commonalities is the three-way tension of of their frontline - Jagger, Richards, Jones - McCartney, Harrison, Lennon and their "drummer" issues - Ringo joined The Beatles just before their first official recording date - which resulted in the single "Love Me Do". Charlie was in a few other bands besides the Stones before committing to his rhythmic role in The Stones. If we are going to be making these silly comparisons at least some basis in reality would help. The Beatles are in the same musical boat as Gerry & The Pacemakers, The Searchers, Billy J Kramer and the Dakotas - - other Liverpool bands. The Stones, in contrast, are part of a London legacy of blues and rock and roll that put the boot in the "trad-jazz" scene of the London nightlife at the time and includes Korner, Davies, The Yardbirds, The Kinks, The Who for a start. The Beatles from the beginning of their official recording career to the end (with a few bumps toward the end of the road) kept the same core musical personnel and producer. The Stones, not so much - with various producers and band members coming and going. The only real point of comparison between The Beatles and The Rolling Stones is their vast success outside of England - - and there are those who question whether Liverpool is really part of England. Love all the people.
Elegantly put, Mabusha Masekela. The only thing I would add is that The Beatles are, truly, a pop band. The Stones were never really out to make friends and considered the 'pop' bit of it as a lark.
You'd think comparing the Beatles and stones nonsense would have ceased by this era...they are both great innovative bands. But as even Mick Jagger has said " we were never in their league on any level"
What Jagger said was how great the Beatles were in the studio making records , music with genius George Martin, the rolling stones they had a lot trouble with the law and bad critics, by rolling stones were a very different band than the Beatles, raw blues rock, the rolling stones were great in concert ,with mick ,dancing and jumping around by 1968 they were better than the Beatles live touring band ,I dont think the Beatles would've kept up with rolling stones and there stage present.
Would have liked to hear a version with Jones as a major player.It's similar to Keith Levene getting bumped out of the early Clash, or losing Barrett in Pink Floyd; they were the ones with the groundbreaking ideas.To my mind, the loss of Barrett was deadly to PF, though I'm well aware many would argue that.
musically, I always liked best the stones period between let it bleed and exile on main street. the addition of bobby keys on sax and nicky Hopkins on piano really added flavor to the stones" sound. after this period stones kinda went downhill which can be said of any band that's been around as long as them. but that period was, I think, their best!
Wow a lot of really old men who’s talking about how much better Stones were when they were young!! I think it’s hard to listen to them before 68 cause they could hardly play!
@@rj-ps8hy Agree. Cameramen fixated only on Jagger. Very little live footage of other band members. Ladies & Gentlemen... (Film of the Exile tour) was even worse 🤬
@@michaeloleary5208 I saw them in Brussel and it was really over Get Yer Yas Yas, Taylor was since 3 years with the Stones and much more musicaly involved on live concerts.
@@matthewcrich5951 I hear there is hundreds of hrs of reel left over from gimme shelter doc from the maysle brothers,I would love too see more of their 69 live shows besides MSG and altamont,although I think it be great too watch brown sugar played 1st time that nite,2 yrs before the record release
It's one of many. Personally I rate "I Wanna Be Your Dog" considerably higher than Flash, and, frankly, the older I get the more laughable Mick's cod-American accent becomes.
7:42 - the Stones were actually writing clever songs about English society like Play With Fire in '65 before the Kinks started doing it with Well-Respected Man, Dedicated Follower of Fashion, etc.
Rolling Ormond Yeah I was thinking the same thing. There's a shit load of great mid 60's Stones English pop songs starting with The Last time, Satisfaction isn't blues at all. Mother's little helper, Play with fire, paint it Black, Have you seen your mother baby, 19th nervous breakdown, Get off my cloud, ruby Tuesday, lady jane and those are just the hits during those "phase 2 years".
***** Of course everyone has to disregard this era and scream "Mick Taylor the best years' over and over, but the mid-sixties had some very sharp, durable songs, better than the Taylor years to be honest, no matter how complex the guitar solos.
Rolling Ormond I'm a fan of all the eras really, (yes even Emotional Rescue, fun album, Tatoo You and Undercover as well. As a kid looking at the pictures in the books as well as listening to the change in their sound, it always amazed me how quickly and radically those times changed for everyone by the end of the 60's and as great as they were from the start by the end of that era they really did break in to a whole another sound starting with Jumping jack Flash. What set them apart from great bands like Cream and later Zeppelin was their groove, it was heavy but always something to move to, of course they had to keep Mick shaking and a moving.
2,000 Light Years From Home beats anything on Sgt. Pepper for me by a mile, it's stood the test of time and was one of the first futuristic records, Brian Jones creativity at its' genius best. If Jones had sorted himself out and lived, he didn't need the Stones, in a sense he'd outgrown them and I think he would have done interesting relevant stuff in the 1970s probably in collaboration with others and been a thorn in Jagger/Richards side.
Satanic Majesties is a vastly underrated album. Yeah, I could do without all the free-form jamming that takes up too much space; but this alum also had "Citadel," "2000 Light Years From Home," and many more that were absolutely perfect. "Performance" was a fantastic film, I never tire of seeing it again. It (and the song "Memo From Turner") were the best things Jagger ever did, IMHO. When he first saw the script, he's reportedly said to Anita "I can't do this, it's not me," to which she replied: "Of course it isn't, it's Brian." "Rock n Roll Circus" also had Jethro Tull -- who also wiped out the Stones. And it's not that the Stones' performance was bad, it wasn't; but there were others there that were just ... more impressive, and that's precisely why Jagger sat on it. Brian was murdered, as we all know. Don't believe a word Keylock says; he was persoally involved. See "Case Closed: The Murder of Brian Jones," a transcript of a psychic communication. If you sneer at such things, well then of course, don't bother. Otherwise, check it out.
Tbh I hated the Jethro Tull performance it just made sick. The Who appearance though was great and actually more impressive. Where can I watch the movie "Performance" safely? Also can you send me a link about the Jone's murder documentary
It's probably well known by now that, early on in the Stones' career, Brian considered replacing Mick with Paul Pond, who adopted Brian's surname and became Manfred Mann's lead singer as Paul Jones. Although technically a better singer, he didn't have Mick's charisma and wouldn't have written the songs Mick and Keith wrote. Still, the Stones definitely lost something when they lost Brian. Consider, for instance, Brian's moody, atmospheric arrangement of "Play With Fire," the tape of which he handed Chrissie Shrimpton for submission when she'd been told by Mick and Keith to submit the more typically rock 'n' roll version "Mess With FIre." Rest in peace, Brian.
In over 40 years as a Stones fan, I’ve never heard that Brian handed Play with Fire to Jagger’s girlfriend Chrissie Shrimpton to submit it AND that they had called it “Mess with Fire”? Who says that?! The cliche phrase has always been “Don’t play with Fire” long before the Stones were born. What a load of nonsense. Where did you pull that from? Keith had dabbled with Spanish and Baroque classical style finger picking long before he met Brian Jones. I’m not anti-Brian Jone but you Jones fans come up with a lot of shite. Give him credit for what he did do and get over trying to give him all the credit which he doesn’t deserve. Sure he may have been treated somewhat unfairly but he dished it out too.
The atmosphere of the arrangement had more to do with the production by Phil Spector and Jack Nitzsche than anything to do with Brian Jones since Brian isn't even on the recording. Here is the documentation of the recording session at RCA in Hollywood. "The song was recorded late one night in January 1965 while the Stones were in Los Angeles recording with Phil Spector at the RCA Studios. Richards performed the song's acoustic guitar opening while Jagger handled vocals and tambourine (enhanced using an echo chamber). Spector played bass, and Jack Nitzsche provided the song's distinctive harpsichord arrangement and tamtams."
Greg Gomberg Thank you for the refresher, I do remember reading that at some point. Either way without diminishing Brian’s actual contributions he didn’t do as much as much as so many falsely claim. What’s so strange about it is that the song doesn’t sound like it could have been recorded in Hollywood, not even in January. It’s such a drizzly English rainy day sounding song.
Loved this movie.... and it made it clear. You can argue all you want, and wonder what they said to Jimi...or who made the band, critique, others, compain about the video quality.the hypocrisy, but remember, "after all it was you and me". Brian, Jimi, Janis are not victims of rock, or fame, or the drug culture. It is beyond me to speculate the reasons for their early demise, or attribute it to any social or psychological cause.
Brian Wilson famously called Between the Buttons his favorite Stones album, w/My Obsession being his favorite Stones tune. Yeah, man! He even popped in for one of the sessions! (Shoulda produced the thing! Hehe! He's only the greatest rock n roll producer of all time!)
every time i see that snipped about the house raid story i can't help but love how the commentator pronounces 'a naked woman with a RRRug-aRRRound-heR' XD
In my opinion not enough people 'GET' the Stones. They are the greatest authentic interpretation of the American Blues Rock sound. There's nothing nice about the blues, or Rock n Roll it's a vibe and an energy, that doesn't go into the studio to please people. To get on the radio. That isn't them. Like Dylan, and many of the greats, they do what their souls tell them too. If it sells it sells. They aren't here to win friends. They are here to do what they do. They took the American sound, and mixed it up with a classic education, a diet of good books, and also class A and sour mash bourbon. This really happened, in '68 with Beggars Banquet... Before that, they were chasing the Beatles... and The Kinks with Between The Buttons.
After Brian. The band lost it's shine & that off key sensitivity which was their trade mark. Not taking away anything from Mick Taylor, the band took on a hard raunchy biker image for the longest time. No comment regarding Ronnie Wood, except he brought them back to their original roots for a spell. Still it was Brian who was the special one who tagged the band.
Scott Pepper As long as Jagger is alive they've not lost their shine. Not the best singer, not the best dancer but the greatest frontman of any rock band.
Scott Pepper I'm a huge Brian Jones fan & totally agree with you. Have you checked the music he made in Morroco? Awesome stuff. His innovation is sorely missed by the stones. He played so many instruments it's no joke. He was a true multi-instrumentalist
+dimethaltryptamine1 A "deathbed confession" to murder or any confession to murder in the US at least is not taken as guilt. A trial will still be held and evidence must exist other than just a confession. Unless you were joking about the gardener then Jones' death would stand as before which I believe was ruled "death by misadventure". Murder would only be a layman's opinion and have no weight at all outside of gossip magazine readership. One's death in a bed seems to have a commonality that is uncommon, that is the imagery of it anyway. Reality has another surprise for those who have never witnessed death.
+peter mills Thanks. Hey you ought to watch (if you haven't already) the Ginger Baker documentary , "Beware of Mr. Baker." It's from 2012 and I gave it a ten star rating on IMDB.
James Boyales, read Brian Jones The making of the RollingStones, all the research in this Brian Jones bio is based on people who knew the Stones on a personal level, Marianne Faithful stated in her own bio that Ruby Tuesday belonged to Brian, she was there in the studio. Remember Marianne Faithful was Mick Jagger's girlfriend from 1966 - '69. You heard them commenting about Bill Wyman being responsible for writting Jumping Jack Flash. Mick and Keith were known to steal other people's work. Did you watch this Documentary?? Ruby Tuesday was a ballad based on an Elizabethan story and a blues # by Skip Johnson. Etheleal , very British, an 18th century story of royalty with a counter culture vibe of the mid 1960's..
Though the book may say one thing we need Brian Jones here to speak up for himself. Unfortunately, he can't make an appearance to defend himself. Perhaps Bill Wyman and Maryanne Faithful would be wise to come forward on their own and produce a Documentary special. RIP Brian Jones. You are missed but never forgotten.
There is a rumor that when the RS recorded at Muscle Shoals that Ry Cooder taught them guitar tunings and Honky Tonk Woman was ripped off. I don’t know if this is true but I wouldn’t doubt it. Anybody know about this?
Not only Ruby Tuesday but it was Brian that came up with the riff for satisfaction. Not keith's fake story of waking up and forgetting he recorded it. Or whatever his story is these days.
Did this video stop twice while the audio played for anyone else? I have Premium, cleared my memory, etc - still about 5m wasted in the middle and at the very end. Baby Brian... many ppl still say the Glimmer Twins killed him by stealing from him and using him/ making fun of him. I think that's evident here as well. So sad. Pissed me off for years but I still love the guys. Dichotomy?
