Wonderful clip !!!!

How different would The Stones be now if Brian was still alive ? 🤔

Yup. Mick and Keith were the singer and the other guitar player in Brian Jones's band at the beginning. That changed and Jones didn't handle it well. They did good stuff with Mick Taylor, and I love Ron Wood. But it was never the same Rolling Stones again. I think of Beggars Banquet and the R&R Circus film as a sort of both high and low point. I'm glad they kept going, but it was never the same. Nothing ever is.

No Jones, No Stones.

No question about it Ryan Jones was the heart and soul of The Rolling Stones. He started The Rolling Stones. He was the most talented rolling Stone. And I truly believe Mick and Keith were deeply jealous of Brian.I can't stand them for it

That’s crazy soo many of you didn’t think the band didn’t improve with mick & KEEF branching out to their musical interest and mick Taylor polishing the final product? Never missed a tour since 1969 and have bought all their albums from 1966 on

The beginning of the stones was mick & keith reconnecting on a train over muddy waters & chuck berry records. Brian may have had connections & great talent but you have to be a complete zombie if keith thought you took too much drugs. Mick tayler era was my favorite for sure

Oh Yess... Brian Jones... He was The Rolling Stones (IMO) and They've Carried The Torch Yess.. But They Just Could Never Be What They Would Have Had He Lived and Remained in The Group... That's Just Indisputable Fact.

The drummer Charlie Watts ran that band with a Iron Fist as soon as Mr. Jones went to Heaven...for decades untill his passing a few years ago....

I've been spreading the word about Brian Jones being the real author of most of their greatest hits. Keith lie's in his book about writing hit songs but really he's just a great guitarist, not as a songwriter per se. One clown tried to tell me that 2000 Light years away was "just l,lV, V chords on the guitar." Yea right , buddy, I mean try it yourself. In " Ruby Tuesday", it was about Ruby ( nickname, I think), who was Brian's beloved grandfather who made caskets and is the subject of the song, not about breaking up with Linda Keith as Richards claims in "Life" his book. Brian did not get along well with his parent's. As in the lyric "Who Could Hang a Name on You" ( the nametag of the casket) and there is no way Keith, a blue's rocker, could have written that song like many others they quaintly claim. Those are complex piano chords with voice leading and extra chords not noted in the commercially available song books.You have to know classical and jazz to get there. He also played a lot of guitar in addition to other instruments though Keith does add a lot of guitar overdubs for the Stones, his specialty is interesting guitar parts.Brian Jones explained this to me personally as a 9 year old and in detail. Sorry fans, Mick and Keith are not all they claim as songwriters, they weaseled him into acceptance of the deal on paper, ( not enough room on the form, and it was a 5 way split anyway) but it had long term repercussions. Now he's dead, tough to fight back there! Some of the songs are of a personal nature, and like many nome de plume works in history it free's up the writer, and writers of books as well, from local personal and legal kickback. So there was two reasons he didn't put up a bigger fight at the time. The other was that he was busy and those kind of things were left to management. His estate did well enough. He is often pictured at the front or center of album covers for a reason, he's not a little rhythm guitarist in the background. Nor is he just a talented multi instrumentalist, appeaser's will argue that when cornered. When fired, he screamed at them that they would be playing "Satisfaction" ( let alone the rest of the 60's lot he wrote) until the day the band died and he was right. The sales and hit's graph dips sharply after he left.

Since he died, the Stones fell out of my interest. Sorry to say it, but never could like them without Brian.

I always wondered why Keith Nobody and Sir Mickey were still around, it seems that there is always more and more interest in Brian, even though the others made him out to be the Devil's Weed was nothing like that and had more class than the others combined, yes nobody is perfect except Keith Nobody who was straight as an arrow never a thread out of place check out any photos of his magnificent stature around 1977 or so and you will understand why he would criticize Brian who was totally out of control and reckless. All this rejuvenation of interest in Brian seems like maybe any day now the truth might come out about who really iced Brian, Keith Nobody, Sir Mickey Jagger, or both, the Lord speaks in strange ways and maybe time is standing still until the culprit is revealed, if not for anything but Brian's sake..

brian makes no secret in the fan letter reply that the origins of his band had been in some way diluted with mick and keith's pop sensibilities. criminal he has not received more due for his insights and intuition which was so crucial to the band's early survival and pocketed him an 5 quid more a week than the others.
