I thought it is a really, really good record..I sounds like it could be straight from 67 thru 73 period of the Stones..the songs are the way we always wanted to hear them..Rocking Rolling Stones....don't miss it..
Yes, and the stress of managing "the animals" as he called them on or around payday, was too much. After all, practicing those instruments all day would take a toll on anyone. So he turned it over to Oldham and that's when he lost control.He wrote almost all their best songs though, that much is fairly obvious.@@joevanlear7566
They bring my wild side out. It feel good im 69 always looking for ways to feel young. New album does that RIGHT ON Stones Thankyou Greatest Rock Band Ever
Big props to the Rolling Stones for being purveyors of the blues and Black American music! These cats developed into outstanding stylists, songwriters, musicians, and performers over the decades, but, they ALWAYS remained true and dedicated to the blues! Their tribute album Blue and Lonesome is awesome and low-down and funky! And their latest album Hackney Diamonds is outstanding and one of their best!
I've made that exact premise many many times. As a young man in the 60's it was sort of frightening with the advent of long haired hippies tuning in dropping out. Psychedelics, Burning bras and draft cards. A changing of the guard of the tired old social mores, question authority. Yet there was the greatest music of any generation before or after, headlined by the Rolling Stones. They were there in the late 50's early 60's and they're still at it. As relevant now as then. 60 years later i'm sure they could sell out the largest soccer stadium in the world. Of my top 50 songs of all time, the Rolling Stones make up about 12 of those songs, they cannot and will not be denied. Rock on Guys.
A friend of mine sent me a link to like the Billboard album chart from a week in 1974. My God, every album is not only great but the music has lasted into today. If you were to take a snapshot of the Billboard album chart from 2023, my guess is that 50 years from now no one will remember any of the music.
Those days were slower and you appreciated things more because no computers/cell phones. If you wanted to take a picture of something you had to have a f****** camera😂
I was in love with Keith when I was 15 he was the best thing I'd ever seen or heard and I had a poster of him on my wall still love the band .R.I.P Charlie.
Anita Pallenburg was a sex bomb as was Marianne Faithful especially after the acid and mars bar bust in the late 60s. Anita was seen as a naughty sex bomb on drugs living party girl sophisticated jet set luxury lifestyle. After Performance the famous film from 1969 many of us were infatuated with her at school.
I am a big fan since the 60’s for reasons I can’t explain. I just like their music, the rhythm, the blues, the singing, the lyrics. This documentary explains why they are so popular and powerful. Great job! Thanks for sharing. Just got their latest CD hackney diamonds and it’s great!
"12 X 5" my favourite LP - "Litte Red Rooster" "Off the Hook" "Not Fade Away" "Empty Heart" - great early stuff. Countless thanks to The Rolling Stones. Brian (RIP) Charlie (RIP
This is the most historically accurate documentary I have seen about the Stones. No bullshit mythology or fanboy fantasies. Well researched and factual presentations about the Stones are rare and truly refreshing to see.
Just had to point out at 9 minute mark, you said , Mick & Keith brought Brian Jones and others into their band. The rolling Stones was started by Brian Jones and jones only, Brian brought Mick and Keith into the band
How a serious history of The Rolling Stones can screw up something that basic is ridiculous. Obviously, the entire bent of this video is glorifying Mick and Keith.
Musically and creatively the Stones were always Keith's band. Jones was a poser who became wealthy and famous on the talents of his bandmates. As far as I am concerned the Rolling Stones started that day on the Dartford railway station. There were at least five FOUNDING members of the Rolling Stones. One man can not "found" a group. Don't be silly.
@@williardbillmore5713 You don't know what the fuck you're talking about. Brian Jones not only founded the band he named them. Don't take my word for it, give Bill Wyman a call. Yes, one guy can get a group underway. The FACT that Jones founded the band AND named them is BASIC. Richards is awesome and later on Mick and Keith wrote the songs and I love them for doing so. But give credit where credit is due. Even Jagger (and many, many musicians and critics) have said that Brian's talent on many instruments and his imagination gave the Stones a certain texture in their music that was gone for good when Brian became too drunk and drugged up to contribute.
Lucky enough tio see them live, righr in front of my eyes!!! 1994, Voodoo Lounge tour. Thanks for that show. Love you guys And Mick Taylor as well. Best lead Guit. I ever heard. Him and Keith playing toghether, I may as well be in heaven. 😅❤
This was a great documentary, very fair and insightful without getting too deep into the personal squabbles the Stones have had. After 60 years together who wouldn’t have issues from time to time. The Brian Jones comments here never cease to amaze me. Yes, he was a key part of the early Stones and just as important as Mick or Keith. He couldn’t keep it together and they let him go, get over it, that was over 50 years ago and the Stones have been somewhat successful without him!
I remember hearing Satisfaction on my Big brother's radio. I turned 18 in 1980 and I remember watching them do beast of burden on TV. Now I'm 61 and I think of Jagger as old but I don't feel old. I have to remind myself that a 40 year old person thinks of me as an old woman.🎶 You make a grown man cry🎶
Mick & Keith are still going strong it would seem. I will always love Keith for being as cool as he is. He once when asked what was it to being cool responded you either are or you're not. Open and shut case. I read his book Life and found it refreshing that he wrote it himself and it is a brief account of what is a much more variable experience. All lives are. The Glimmer Twins are so romantically decadent. But so full of life and lore.
Lots is misinformation in this: At: 7:37 it's stated:The Rolling Stones actually pretty kinda started a band called The Little Boy Blue and the blue boys and at 8:56 eventually Mick and Keith welcomed Brian Jones and Bill Wyman, this is historically incorrect, Mick and Keith saw Brian playing slide guitar at the Ealing Club and asked if they could join his band he was starting,then Bill joined then Charlie last. ain't no kinda started about it.Also at 29:10 states: however during this period Brian Jones addictions spiraled out of control, Um Brian wasn't a drug addict junkie, in fact in 67 when he was in a hospital in France for being drained, they considered Brian a role model patient and the head nurse Mrs. Gillett in recent years spoke very highly of Brian and the nurses loved him. Also he wasn't fired,he left the band and Bill Wyman states on video how they were still good friends. Mary Hallett was the grounds keeper at Cotchford Farm when Brian brought it in Nov 68 and Brian said he would only buy it if she could stay on as grounds keeper. May wanna do a little more research.
Such a lot of incorrect info here. There are much better and older sources that have taken pains to research their content. If you plan to learn ANYTHING on the internet, please use several sources.
I don`t like these kind of doku too.They want the people to think that Jagger/Richards formed the Stones . Some let Brian totally out, horrible. Mainstream shit.
Wrong. The core of the Rolling Stones was a;ways and still is Keith and Mick. They were together and playing long before they ever met Brian. Brian did not have a band because he didn't get along with anyone. Jones was above all an alcoholic and as he started taking amphetamines and acid he went downhill very quickly. He WAS fired for being a drunk and tripping more than he wasn't and his drug convictions meant he couldn't get a work Visa to tour. Jones could no longer function as a musician or even a human being. The night he died he was found to have been taking huge amounts of amphetamines and then sedated himself with enough booze to cause him to pass out and sink to the bottom of his pool,,,he didn't even really drown. There wasn't enough water in his airway to technically call it a drowning he just stopped breathing and sank. Had he not killed himself that night he was n't going to live much longer anyway. Jones was a talentless poser, a malignant narcissist, a psychopath and a waste of space. No one who knew him well liked him at all for very good reasons. BTW Paul Trynka lied to you about EVERYTHING.. YES EVERYTHING! This video is a refreshing representation of the truth about Jones.
Since I knew him personally and in the flesh, while the know it a all's have merely read books....you loose, and I win. It's like bigfoot. Anyone can get a monkey suit and take fuzzy pictures. Whose 9 feet tall to wear the costume? The top ten hits just stopped coming and never really returned. The few good on'e Mick and Keith did write never charted quite as well if at all. Those are the undeniable facts. If you like Tumbling Dice, good for you, but it's not a classic like Satisfaction.Give me fact's not a "follow the heard" opinion. Start Me Up was their last top 10 hit, am I right? 40 years ago? Wyman was the only one to vote against the exit.
As a little boy I had a plastic fantastic Audio Sonic turntable (with built in amp) and a record. It was a sampler with Carly Simon,Santana, John Mayall and...The Rolling Stones Brown Sugar. Bit of a fan ever since. Beggars Banquet, Let it Bleed and Exile on Main St. my fav Stones albums.
Brian had MAJOR INPUT INTO THE STONES... WORKING EVERYTHING OUT WITH MICK , KEITH. I Definitely Noticed Mick and Brian answering interviews plus he was better looking then Mick. Charlie I know he was 80 yrs. old. But what a great Jazz Drummer and as a drummer no one could play like this incredible man......R.I.P CHARLIE
Little Boy Blue and the Blueboys were a band that was active until 1962. The band's members were: Dick Taylor, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards. The band's albums include: Rollin' Stones Blues The band's songs include: Johnny B. Goode Beautiful Delilah Little Queenie La Bamba Around and Around Down the Road Apiece
@@um9272 It shows that there was a band before Brian ran his advert and that Brian joined Mick and Keith's band and he "founded" NOTHING. That story about Jones forming the Rolling Stones is just a myth. The plaque at the Dartford train station honoring Mick and Keith for forming the Stones was correct.
@@elenikorkodelaki2695 What were you doing before you joined? ( Mick and Keith's band) .. *Um... well I was just sort of bumming around waiting for something to happen really. I had quite a few jobs and uh I was trying to get a band going but it was unsuccessful until I met up with Mick and Keith* ...---Brian Jones talking about joining the Blue Boys
What got Mick and Keith back together was the acceptance (perhaps reluctantly) that Rolling Stones was bigger than either of them: that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
The blue Boys were Keith's band and that never changed. When they changed their name to the Rolling Stones it was still Keith's band... Jones was just a hanger on.
The story of how The Rolling Stones formed has now been codified in the rock and roll history books. Mick Jagger and Keith Richards were already acquainted, while Brian Jones played with Alexis Korner’s Blues Incorporated, Ian Stewart, and Charlie Watts. The meeting between these parties at the Ealing Jazz Club served as the flashpoint for 60 years of rock music. If you asked Jones how the band formed in the early days, however, you might have gotten a direct response in the form of a letter. When the Stones were in their earliest solidified incarnation, Jones received a letter from a fan named Doreen Pettifer. She asked how the Stones had formed, and Jones was amicable enough to provide her with an answer. “Dear Doreen / Many thanks for your letter and for the great interest you have shown in the band,” Jones writes. “It’s very gratifying that you should be so willing to help us to the extent you are doing so. Some information.” From there, Jones lays out each of the band members and what their duties entail. Personnel: Keith Richards - Guitar - 19 years old - went to Art School, then straight into rhythm and blues. Mick Jagger - Vocal Harmonica 19 years old. London School of Economics. Charlie Watts, 21 worked in advertising for some years - now full-time musician. (Drummer) Jan Stewart - Piano, 23 works with I.C.I. as a Shipping Clerk during the day (known affectionately as “Stu”) Bill Wyman - Bass - 23, works during the day as a storekeeper or something equally horrible. Only member of the band married - only one who’ll ever be married. Proud father of a baby son (or daughter) Myself, Brian Jones - Guitar and Harmonica, 21 was studying Architecture - more artistic satisfaction from R & B. (Mick, Keith, and myself as I expect you noticed, wear our hair out long, the others being more conventional) Jones also provides a brief history of the band up to that point. *“The band is really an amalgamation of two bands. The one being an R&B band I formed about a year ago, and the other being a group run by Mick and Keith in S.E. London. I was introduced to Keith and we decided to pool our resources, so with Stu from my band, and Mick from Keith’s we became the nucleus of the ‘Stones.’”* Adding: “The first job we did was a half an evening at the Marquee, Oxford Street standing in for Alexis Komer’s Blues Inc. Our first residency was at the Ealing Club, Ealing Boy, which we still do most weeks, unless we are playing elsewhere. Charlie joined us at this point & Bill a bit later. By now we have carried our banner to most parts of London, though by no means every area. We are finding our style of rhythm and blues more readily acceptable than most others in the country at the moment”. “We are doing a series of Saturday dates at the Poole, Dorset, starting next week. We play the Ken Coyler Club and every Sunday evening play the Station Hotel, Richmond which has been described as one of the most hip sessions,” he adds. “We have, I may add, a habit of breaking attendance records. We have signed an agreement with an independent recording company, I.B.C who channel their releases through the major company labels. We have already cut quite a few sides, all on the commercial side.” “Jerry Grant, producer of ‘Saturday Club’ has heard and apparently impressed by an LP of ours, and is coming to hear the band in action at Richmond. … You raised a point in your letter about Blues material. You must appreciate that blues are not easy to put over to the average club audience. They prefer something more in the twisting, jumping line. However at the Ken Coyler club - we always stick in a host of blues material. This is the only place we ever push this type of material with any success.” “Unlike most forms of jazz the accent in R&B should not be on soloists but on an overall integrated group sound - hence the absence of the strings of solos,” he concludes. “Your point of getting our name known before a record is released is a really good one. We must really work together on this. At the moment we haven’t a suitable photograph to send, but this can soon be rectified. Well, I think that’s about all. Once again thank you for your interest in Rhythm and Blues and ourselves. It’s wonderful music and deserves more recognition. We look forward to hearing from you and seeing you on the 19th.” If you’re interested in owning this specific piece of rock and roll history, Bonhams has put the letter up for auction. A word of warning, though: the item won’t go cheap. Current estimations have the letter going for between £17,000 - £25,000. The Myth that Jones "founded the band and auditioned and recruited every member is a lie and has grown into an internet myth. The source for this myth is Bill Wyman who seems to have believed the braggadocious lies Brian told him for all those years about how it was once "his" band. Bill was quite willing to tell every journalist and book writer who interviewed him that lie... There is no way Bill could possibly have first hand information about how they got together. Brian asked Keith if he could join Keith's band The Blue Boys around April or May 62 and Bill did not join until mid December 62.
Thank you , many obscure film/video /interview, parts , yes some Disputed parts , will always be ,yet the rare video I enjoyed , somebody must of said No to the Altamont footage parts where they threaten to stop ,overall its all been said before by whomever , The Rare Footage a delight to See , under any ,stipulations or mixtures thereof They are The Greatest Band of All Time .I like Hackney Diamonds ,theres a return to Roots , pervading it ,
@@chandulal68Baloni. There was no band to name without Mick and Keith. Jones was a poser and an asshole. There were three geniuses in the Rolling Stones . Two were musical geniuses and one was a managerial genius. Brian was NOT one of them.
@@chandulal68 Bill knows better than what he tells...He is no bastion of honesty just because he was quiet and didn't take drugs ... and here is a hint ...Wyman was not one of the musical geniuses. He was largely brought into the band because he had an extra amplifier and he always had lots of cigarettes. That should tell you something about his talent. Bill was the last one to join so his knowledge of how the band started before he came along was NOT first hand. Bill was never the best bass player...Hell, he wasn't even the best bass player in the Rolling Stones. You should know that if you were a true fan. BTW... Paul Trynka lied to you about EVERYTHING. Shame on you for being so gullible.
Love 'em or hate 'em, you've gotta love The Stones! Great music, for a start, everything else is just a bonus......... There's no better frontman than Mick + Keith is everything a rock star should be, he makes it look fun + always appears to be enjoying himself. The Rolling Stones are a Rock n Roll band........... They might even be THE Rock n Roll band???............. or I might be talking out of my arse?!?!? (the consensus opinion)
"Satisfaction" and "Start Me Up" will always represent the guys. The Top 5 albums of the Summer of love were Sgt.Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band. == Beatles The Monkees == Headquarters The Doors == The Debut Doors Album Jefferson Airplane == Surrealistic Pillow The Stones == Flowers
They have so many better songs than those two... personally if I never heard them again I wouldn't mind...Torn And Frayed, Hand Of Fate, Stray Cat Blues, Sway, Dancing With Mr. D, Time Waits For No one, Down In The Hole and Ventilator Blues are all way better tunes
😂I LOVE Stray Cat Blues and the even more obscure Hand of Fate. Stones have so many great songs that most people aren't aware of hidden away on their not too well known albums!😂
Oh wow, Syd Griffin, of the Long Ryders and what the press called the Paisley Underground, The Now, my band loved it. Rickenbackers and Sweetheart of the Rodeo era Byrds and fringe suede jackets. Should be a retrospective of this little known movement.
keith is my goat possibly.... he starts off so many tracks w his guitar and he jus kills it....there is a reason they sold so many records this band has had the longest run of all time maybe too! jus an amazing band im 45yo and ive always loved the rolling stones call me old or call me whatever but idgaf i ius love em ... ive done the cock strut before im a goon i know

27:16 The result of the Beatles traveling to India wasn't the album 'Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band'. They had already recorded and released that album. The songs they wrote while in India became 'The White Album'.
Can we pleeeaaasse change the format of these rockumentaries? The old footage, and interviews with the band members are fantastic. But listening to some "music critic" drone on about the obvious points at which the music changed is so boring! Talking about things as banal as the subjects driving without seatbelts. Ugh!
You're right that's a lie....Brian Jones did all the hiring....he hired Jagger and Richard's as a package deal than hired Wyman than Watts...Jones is not alive to defend himself...Lee Deuce former Baltimore stripper aka Jack the stripper.
Got that right. Bill Wyman took umbrage to Dartford putting up a plaque at the rr station that stated that Mick and Keith formed The Rolling Stones. Not so, he said.
Granted Brian was the "in" guy in the blues scene in the early day's however Mick & Keith came as an already formable unit. Whilst doing albums of blues covers Brian was still relevant, but once the necessity of composing original tunes came into play poor Brian quickly became a dinosaur. He couldn't compose a song if his life depended on it (quite literally) plus he was into the rock and roll "lifestyle" yet couldn't handle his drugs. Unable to live the life and produce the necessary product, when it came time to step up to the plate he couldn't get out of the dugout
Keith's band was Little Boy Blue and the Blue Boys. Brian had no band anymore at that point. He asked Kieth if he could join Keith's band with the ONLY guy who answered his advert, IAN Stewart. Keith agreed. *“The band is really an amalgamation of two bands. The one being an R&B band I formed about a year ago, and the other being a group run by Mick and Keith in S.E. London.

Keith's debut solo album _Talk is Cheap_ was described at the time as "sounding more like the Rolling Stones than the Rolling Stones", but it was really Keith taking a big swipe at Mick.
46:18 “The Stones took a break in the mid-1980s to consider their options.” Only because Mick and Keith couldn’t work together. Mick’s gripe was Keith: Keith asleep backstage but no-one wants to wake him because he keeps a loaded gun under his pillow, Keith asleep in the studio, Keith flew off to Jamaica instead of mixing the album, Keith slugging press photographers/destroyed a hotel room/gotten into a fistfight with the locals/fallen into a coma. Keith asleep or not showing up until hours after the scheduled start time. The bandmate Keith personally vouched for (Woody) is freebasing again and Mick is singing at a stadium backed by not one but two guitarists falling over onstage. Then there’s Charlie’s heroin addiction… Keith’s gripe: Mick was working hard on his solo career trying to ditch the Stones, and in 1983 had deviously signed a deal with CBS for three solo records for millions of dollars on the back of a Stones contract, without a word to anybody in the band. Says Keith (from his book): “I don’t care who you are, you don’t piggyback on a Rolling Stones deal. Mick felt free to do that. It was total disregard for the band. We didn’t build this band up to stab each other in the back.” As for Keith’s frequent disappearance, he would level the same charge at Mick, who used up any songs he had written (for the Dirty Work_ album) for his solo album. Even as late as 1987, Mick was more than a tad reluctant to talk about the Stones, except to say “no-one should care if the Rolling Stones broke up”. That’s how bad it was between the Glimmer Twins. Despite all this, they still look up to each other.
2:10 How does Sid Griffin get into all these British rock documentaries? He wasn’t there for the beginning of The Beatles, Stones, etc.-he just knows all the stories and tells them like he was, droning on and on. He was born in 1955; bet he wasn’t hanging with the Stones when he was 10.
I have not heard the new album. I like many of the old songs like "Playing With Fire", "Paint It Black," and "Under My Thumb." I am sure it will be a great album. I like "Tumbling Dice" and many more songs like the one Mary Ann Faithful wrote that Mick recorded.
The great thing with today's technology is its so easy to sample all the new stuff - and then decide whether you want to buy, or just keep streaming...
Hokum - it was Brian Jone's band originally - he paid wages to Mick and Keith (when he felt like it !). Mick and Keith eventually took over as front men - even though Brian was probably the best musician in the band - but not the best person !
Jones was a poser and a talentless hanger on. He did not found the Rolling Stones. He joined Mick and Keith's band that had been together for almost two years.
Yes - overall not a very nice individual but despite the singing / song writing he was a talented musician. If hed been allowed to live on, who knows what else he'd have done.@@maryr9398

The Blues and Soul music came int0 Britain not just via the ports of Liverpool, London, Bristiol, but Discos for American service men starioned in the Uk in small towns near the Bases they were stationed at.
Mick & Keith & Stewart?had a band ‘little boy Blue & the Blues boys ‘.Brian asked them to join him because he didn’t have a band at the time. So they all got together & Bill Wyman joined later & finally Charlie joined . So who started The Rolling Stones ? Brian brought them together sort of ?
Eric Burdon at 14 was hanging around the music venue in Newcastle meeting Louis Armstrong and Bo Diddeley and he also was inspired in the 1950s and was performing old blues music very early 1960s. They dont get the recognition they deserve but were clearly a working class band and not the fashion.
44:13 "Mick wanted to focus on his solo career". It was more than that. Mick had had enough of Keith's drug habit, drink habit (where Keith and Ronnie would fall over on stage), turning up for shows late, disappearing during recording sessions, getting into legal trouble...
The claim has been made that Brian Jones never wrote anything and could not. This is false. Brian Jones wrote the soundtrack of the movie A Degree of Murder.
This a terrible documentary, Brian with Stu put the Stones together, a 6 member group and then Oldham the manager got rid of Stu (chin to big) who became their Road Manager. Lots left out, any youngsters watching this get your info somewhere else. Brian Jones was my man in the Stones and unfortunately self destructed, still he was way ahead of Jagger and Keith as a bad boy, 2 illegitimate kids before the Stones which in 1962 was very bad behavior

His name is Andrew OLDAM, not "Oldman". There are so many fundamental inaccuracies in this video.... the Beatles went to India and that resulted in Sgt Pepper???..... they went to India in Feb 1968 but Pepper had already been release in June 1967.
Fun to watch documentary. I feel like you’re gonna throw in some more stuff like the hiring of Nick Taylor, also, Brian Jones was physically emotionally abusive to Anita, and I got to the point where he was being physically abusive, and Keith simply got her out of the hotel room, that’s how that happened to save her from being beaten up you sure have included the fact that yes, the Hells angels killed a guy, but he was approaching the stage with a pistol his hand. This can be seen in the movie about Altimont gimme shelter .I kind of want to hear some tidbits on things like what is this song paint it Black about. anyway, it’s kind of a short video about decades of information cell there’s that

The physical and psychological deterioration that happened with Brian Jones in the mere two years between '66 and '68 was horrifying. There didn't seem to be any way back for that man. A truly tragic figure. He may not have written the songs but he embodied the spirit, and they were never that great again.

Yes, and the stress of managing "the animals" as he called them on or around payday, was too much. After all, practicing those instruments all day would take a toll on anyone. So he turned it over to Oldham and that's when he lost control.He wrote almost all their best songs though, that much is fairly obvious.@@joevanlear7566

I love how they're still playing. Legendary
Those days look like they were so much better and more fun than now.
I've made that exact premise many many times. As a young man in the 60's it was sort of frightening with the advent of long haired hippies tuning in dropping out. Psychedelics, Burning bras and draft cards. A changing of the guard of the tired old social mores, question authority. Yet there was the greatest music of any generation before or after, headlined by the Rolling Stones. They were there in the late 50's early 60's and they're still at it. As relevant now as then. 60 years later i'm sure they could sell out the largest soccer stadium in the world. Of my top 50 songs of all time, the Rolling Stones make up about 12 of those songs, they cannot and will not be denied. Rock on Guys.
A friend of mine sent me a link to like the Billboard album chart from a week in 1974. My God, every album is not only great but the music has lasted into today. If you were to take a snapshot of the Billboard album chart from 2023, my guess is that 50 years from now no one will remember any of the music.
Those days were slower and you appreciated things more because no computers/cell phones. If you wanted to take a picture of something you had to have a f****** camera😂
They were. I blame mostly law enforcement and the War on Drugs.
I couldn't agree more.. now we live in CCTV Britain!@@gregoryjclark81
I was in love with Keith when I was 15 he was the best thing I'd ever seen or heard and I had a poster of him on my wall still love the band .R.I.P Charlie.
Anita Pallenburg was a sex bomb as was Marianne Faithful especially after the acid and mars bar bust in the late 60s. Anita was seen as a naughty sex bomb on drugs living party girl sophisticated jet set luxury lifestyle. After Performance the famous film from 1969 many of us were infatuated with her at school.
but you didn't mention important age data, I guess he was about 40 then? Keith looked best 40-50 better than Mick at last...
see, not only your age counts as a vital info here
@@janpierzchala2004 60's & early 70 's Keith however old he was then.
@@deborahrohl7690 I see. Thank You. To me he looked extremely well around 1980
I have seen them in concert twice. They were very entertaining.
LOVE THE STONES ❤❤❤❤❤
I am a big fan since the 60’s for reasons I can’t explain. I just like their music, the rhythm, the blues, the singing, the lyrics. This documentary explains why they are so popular and powerful. Great job! Thanks for sharing. Just got their latest CD hackney diamonds and it’s great!
You're welcome! Enjoy the new music.
Excellent, 5 stars. Thank you
"12 X 5" my favourite LP - "Litte Red Rooster" "Off the Hook" "Not Fade Away" "Empty Heart" - great early stuff. Countless thanks to The Rolling Stones. Brian (RIP) Charlie (RIP
There was no 12 x 5 LP in U.K.
There was an EP
If You Need Me, Around & Around, Confessing The Blues, 2120 Michigan Ave. Empty Heart
Give me the original from Big Mama Thornton's Little Red Rooster every time
& RIP Stu...

This is the most historically accurate documentary I have seen about the Stones.
No bullshit mythology or fanboy fantasies. Well researched and factual presentations about the Stones are rare and truly refreshing to see.
ROCK n ROLL and the best among the best.their story never gets old
Just had to point out at 9 minute mark, you said , Mick & Keith brought Brian Jones and others into their band. The rolling Stones was started by Brian Jones and jones only, Brian brought Mick and Keith into the band
How a serious history of The Rolling Stones can screw up something that basic is ridiculous. Obviously, the entire bent of this video is glorifying Mick and Keith.
Musically and creatively the Stones were always Keith's band. Jones was a poser who became wealthy and famous on the talents of his bandmates.
As far as I am concerned the Rolling Stones started that day on the Dartford railway station. There were at least five FOUNDING members of the Rolling Stones. One man can not "found" a group.
Don't be silly.
@@williardbillmore5713 You don't know what the fuck you're talking about. Brian Jones not only founded the band he named them. Don't take my word for it, give Bill Wyman a call. Yes, one guy can get a group underway. The FACT that Jones founded the band AND named them is BASIC. Richards is awesome and later on Mick and Keith wrote the songs and I love them for doing so. But give credit where credit is due. Even Jagger (and many, many musicians and critics) have said that Brian's talent on many instruments and his imagination gave the Stones a certain texture in their music that was gone for good when Brian became too drunk and drugged up to contribute.
Wow so not true. @@williardbillmore5713
This is ?? Brian Jones was invited by MJ and KR to join their band ! see ya .
This was AWESOME, Thank you!!! 😎
You're welcome!
Lucky enough tio see them live, righr in front of my eyes!!!
1994, Voodoo Lounge tour.
Thanks for that show.
Love you guys
And Mick Taylor as well. Best lead Guit. I ever heard.
Him and Keith playing toghether, I may as well be in heaven.

When I heard Jagger singing Im an Emotional Rescue I thought it was The Bee Gees on Smack.
I worked production & was able to be a runner for a couple of shows - awesome band & crew
Thank.youf

You're welcome. Thanks for watching?
Yep.Alan......you've just been to "rock school"
👍😂Love.your.sarcasm...........
I enjoyed the rare video ,
This was a great documentary, very fair and insightful without getting too deep into the personal squabbles the Stones have had. After 60 years together who wouldn’t have issues from time to time. The Brian Jones comments here never cease to amaze me. Yes, he was a key part of the early Stones and just as important as Mick or Keith. He couldn’t keep it together and they let him go, get over it, that was over 50 years ago and the Stones have been somewhat successful without him!
Thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment and offer your POV.
They've been verysucessfiul..without him
I remember hearing Satisfaction on my Big brother's radio. I turned 18 in 1980 and I remember watching them do beast of burden on TV. Now I'm 61 and I think of Jagger as old but I don't feel old. I have to remind myself that a 40 year old person thinks of me as an old woman.🎶 You make a grown man cry🎶
Mick & Keith are still going strong it would seem. I will always love Keith for being as cool as he is. He once when asked what was it to being cool responded you either are or you're not. Open and shut case. I read his book Life and found it refreshing that he wrote it himself and it is a brief account of what is a much more variable experience. All lives are. The Glimmer Twins are so romantically decadent. But so full of life and lore.
Lots is misinformation in this:
At: 7:37 it's stated:The Rolling Stones actually pretty kinda started a band called The Little Boy Blue and the blue boys and at 8:56 eventually Mick and Keith welcomed Brian Jones and Bill Wyman, this is historically incorrect, Mick and Keith saw Brian playing slide guitar at the Ealing Club and asked if they could join his band he was starting,then Bill joined then Charlie last. ain't no kinda started about it.Also at 29:10 states: however during this period Brian Jones addictions spiraled out of control, Um Brian wasn't a drug addict junkie, in fact in 67 when he was in a hospital in France for being drained, they considered Brian a role model patient and the head nurse Mrs. Gillett in recent years spoke very highly of Brian and the nurses loved him. Also he wasn't fired,he left the band and Bill Wyman states on video how they were still good friends. Mary Hallett was the grounds keeper at Cotchford Farm when Brian brought it in Nov 68 and Brian said he would only buy it if she could stay on as grounds keeper. May wanna do a little more research.
Such a lot of incorrect info here. There are much better and older sources that have taken pains to research their content. If you plan to learn ANYTHING on the internet, please use several sources.
I don`t like these kind of doku too.They want the people to think that Jagger/Richards formed the Stones . Some let Brian totally out, horrible. Mainstream shit.
46:48👈🏻 😂
Wrong. The core of the Rolling Stones was a;ways and still is Keith and Mick. They were together and playing long before they ever met Brian. Brian did not have a band because he didn't get along with anyone. Jones was above all an alcoholic and as he started taking amphetamines and acid he went downhill very quickly. He WAS fired for being a drunk and tripping more than he wasn't and his drug convictions meant he couldn't get a work Visa to tour. Jones could no longer function as a musician or even a human being.
The night he died he was found to have been taking huge amounts of amphetamines and then sedated himself with enough booze to cause him to pass out and sink to the bottom of his pool,,,he didn't even really drown. There wasn't enough water in his airway to technically call it a drowning he just stopped breathing and sank. Had he not killed himself that night he was n't going to live much longer anyway.
Jones was a talentless poser, a malignant narcissist, a psychopath and a waste of space. No one who knew him well liked him at all for very good reasons.
BTW Paul Trynka lied to you about EVERYTHING..
YES EVERYTHING!
This video is a refreshing representation of the truth about Jones.
Since I knew him personally and in the flesh, while the know it a all's have merely read books....you loose, and I win. It's like bigfoot. Anyone can get a monkey suit and take fuzzy pictures. Whose 9 feet tall to wear the costume? The top ten hits just stopped coming and never really returned. The few good on'e Mick and Keith did write never charted quite as well if at all. Those are the undeniable facts. If you like Tumbling Dice, good for you, but it's not a classic like Satisfaction.Give me fact's not a "follow the heard" opinion. Start Me Up was their last top 10 hit, am I right? 40 years ago? Wyman was the only one to vote against the exit.
As a little boy I had a plastic fantastic Audio Sonic turntable (with built in amp) and a record. It was a sampler with Carly Simon,Santana, John Mayall and...The Rolling Stones Brown Sugar. Bit of a fan ever since. Beggars Banquet, Let it Bleed and Exile on Main St. my fav Stones albums.
55:44 "Does this face look like it's been to the fountain of youth?" gets me every time!😆
Brian had MAJOR INPUT INTO THE STONES... WORKING EVERYTHING OUT WITH MICK , KEITH. I Definitely Noticed Mick and Brian answering interviews plus he was better looking then
Mick. Charlie I know he was 80 yrs. old. But what a great Jazz
Drummer and as a drummer no one could play like this incredible man......R.I.P CHARLIE
Brian totally screwed underage girls, got them pregnant and left them with nothing
Those eye bags made him more beautiful than Mick? 😂
each time I listen I like it better.
They were HUGE IN THE 70s , Stones became even bigger .

MY PERSONAL ICONS FOREVER 🏥☦️🪖🇺🇲🐄🎃🎃🎃🎃♾️
The blue Boys were Keith's band and that never changed. When they changed their name to the Rolling Stones it was still Keith's band...
Jones was just a hanger on.
The story of how The Rolling Stones formed has now been codified in the rock and roll history books. Mick Jagger and Keith Richards were already acquainted, while Brian Jones played with Alexis Korner’s Blues Incorporated, Ian Stewart, and Charlie Watts. The meeting between these parties at the Ealing Jazz Club served as the flashpoint for 60 years of rock music.
If you asked Jones how the band formed in the early days, however, you might have gotten a direct response in the form of a letter. When the Stones were in their earliest solidified incarnation, Jones received a letter from a fan named Doreen Pettifer. She asked how the Stones had formed, and Jones was amicable enough to provide her with an answer.
“Dear Doreen / Many thanks for your letter and for the great interest you have shown in the band,” Jones writes. “It’s very gratifying that you should be so willing to help us to the extent you are doing so. Some information.” From there, Jones lays out each of the band members and what their duties entail.
Personnel:
Keith Richards - Guitar - 19 years old - went to Art School, then straight into rhythm and blues.
Mick Jagger - Vocal Harmonica 19 years old. London School of Economics.
Charlie Watts, 21 worked in advertising for some years - now full-time musician. (Drummer)
Jan Stewart - Piano, 23 works with I.C.I. as a Shipping Clerk during the day (known affectionately as “Stu”)
Bill Wyman - Bass - 23, works during the day as a storekeeper or something equally horrible. Only member of the band married - only one who’ll ever be married. Proud father of a baby son (or daughter)
Myself, Brian Jones - Guitar and Harmonica, 21 was studying Architecture - more artistic satisfaction from R & B.
(Mick, Keith, and myself as I expect you noticed, wear our hair out long, the others being more conventional)
Jones also provides a brief history of the band up to that point.
*“The band is really an amalgamation of two bands. The one being an R&B band I formed about a year ago, and the other being a group run by Mick and Keith in S.E. London. I was introduced to Keith and we decided to pool our resources, so with Stu from my band, and Mick from Keith’s we became the nucleus of the ‘Stones.’”*
Adding: “The first job we did was a half an evening at the Marquee, Oxford Street standing in for Alexis Komer’s Blues Inc. Our first residency was at the Ealing Club, Ealing Boy, which we still do most weeks, unless we are playing elsewhere. Charlie joined us at this point & Bill a bit later. By now we have carried our banner to most parts of London, though by no means every area. We are finding our style of rhythm and blues more readily acceptable than most others in the country at the moment”.
“We are doing a series of Saturday dates at the Poole, Dorset, starting next week. We play the Ken Coyler Club and every Sunday evening play the Station Hotel, Richmond which has been described as one of the most hip sessions,” he adds. “We have, I may add, a habit of breaking attendance records. We have signed an agreement with an independent recording company, I.B.C who channel their releases through the major company labels. We have already cut quite a few sides, all on the commercial side.”
“Jerry Grant, producer of ‘Saturday Club’ has heard and apparently impressed by an LP of ours, and is coming to hear the band in action at Richmond. … You raised a point in your letter about Blues material. You must appreciate that blues are not easy to put over to the average club audience. They prefer something more in the twisting, jumping line. However at the Ken Coyler club - we always stick in a host of blues material. This is the only place we ever push this type of material with any success.”
“Unlike most forms of jazz the accent in R&B should not be on soloists but on an overall integrated group sound - hence the absence of the strings of solos,” he concludes. “Your point of getting our name known before a record is released is a really good one. We must really work together on this. At the moment we haven’t a suitable photograph to send, but this can soon be rectified. Well, I think that’s about all. Once again thank you for your interest in Rhythm and Blues and ourselves. It’s wonderful music and deserves more recognition. We look forward to hearing from you and seeing you on the 19th.”
If you’re interested in owning this specific piece of rock and roll history, Bonhams has put the letter up for auction. A word of warning, though: the item won’t go cheap. Current estimations have the letter going for between £17,000 - £25,000.
The Myth that Jones "founded the band and auditioned and recruited every member is a lie and has grown into an internet myth. The source for this myth is Bill Wyman who seems to have believed the braggadocious lies Brian told him for all those years about how it was once "his" band. Bill was quite willing to tell every journalist and book writer who interviewed him that lie... There is no way Bill could possibly have first hand information about how they got together. Brian asked Keith if he could join Keith's band The Blue Boys around April or May 62 and Bill did not join until mid December 62.
Thank you , many obscure film/video /interview, parts , yes some Disputed parts , will always be ,yet the rare video I enjoyed , somebody must of said No to the Altamont footage parts where they threaten to stop ,overall its all been said before by whomever , The Rare Footage a delight to See , under any ,stipulations or mixtures thereof They are The Greatest Band of All Time .I like Hackney Diamonds ,theres a return to Roots , pervading it ,

There were three geniuses in the Rolling Stones . Two were musical geniuses and one was a managerial genius. Brian was NOT one of them.
@@williardbillmore5713 well I guess you know better than Bill Wyman 🤷♂️
@@chandulal68 Bill knows better than what he tells...He is no bastion of honesty just because he was quiet and didn't take drugs ... and here is a hint ...Wyman was not one of the musical geniuses. He was largely brought into the band because he had an extra amplifier and he always had lots of cigarettes.
That should tell you something about his talent.
Bill was the last one to join so his knowledge of how the band started before he came along was NOT first hand.
Bill was never the best bass player...Hell, he wasn't even the best bass player in the Rolling Stones.
You should know that if you were a true fan.
BTW... Paul Trynka lied to you about EVERYTHING.
Shame on you for being so gullible.
Nothing new here on the Stones, but still fun. After all, anything with the Stones is cool.
Love 'em or hate 'em, you've gotta love The Stones!
Great music, for a start, everything else is just a bonus.........
There's no better frontman than Mick + Keith is everything a rock star should be, he makes it look fun + always appears to be enjoying himself.
The Rolling Stones are a Rock n Roll band........... They might even be THE Rock n Roll band???............. or I might be talking out of my arse?!?!? (the consensus opinion)
Superb band and well put together documentary 👏
"Satisfaction" and "Start Me Up" will always represent the guys.
The Top 5 albums of the Summer of love were
Sgt.Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band. == Beatles
The Monkees == Headquarters
The Doors == The Debut Doors Album
Jefferson Airplane == Surrealistic Pillow
The Stones == Flowers
They have so many better songs than those two... personally if I never heard them again I wouldn't mind...Torn And Frayed, Hand Of Fate, Stray Cat Blues, Sway, Dancing With Mr. D, Time Waits For No one, Down In The Hole and Ventilator Blues are all way better tunes
@@Mike-hh3cxHave to disagree with Dancing With Mr D ,but agree with the rest
Hendrix??????
😂I LOVE Stray Cat Blues and the even more obscure Hand of Fate. Stones have so many great songs that most people aren't aware of hidden away on their not too well known albums!😂
also Time Waits for no One is a great Track!
Oh wow, Syd Griffin, of the Long Ryders and what the press called the Paisley Underground, The Now, my band loved it. Rickenbackers and Sweetheart of the Rodeo era Byrds and fringe suede jackets. Should be a retrospective of this little known movement.

27:16 The result of the Beatles traveling to India wasn't the album 'Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band'. They had already recorded and released that album. The songs they wrote while in India became 'The White Album'.
And then,after all that peace and love, the Beatles sued each other.

Can we pleeeaaasse change the format of these rockumentaries? The old footage, and interviews with the band members are fantastic. But listening to some "music critic" drone on about the obvious points at which the music changed is so boring! Talking about things as banal as the subjects driving without seatbelts. Ugh!

Well they are so old now, they simply don't remember
Got that right. Bill Wyman took umbrage to Dartford putting up a plaque at the rr station that stated that Mick and Keith formed The Rolling Stones. Not so, he said.
Granted Brian was the "in" guy in the blues scene in the early day's however Mick & Keith came as an already formable unit. Whilst doing albums of blues covers Brian was still relevant, but once the necessity of composing original tunes came into play poor Brian quickly became a dinosaur. He couldn't compose a song if his life depended on it (quite literally) plus he was into the rock and roll "lifestyle" yet couldn't handle his drugs. Unable to live the life and produce the necessary product, when it came time to step up to the plate he couldn't get out of the dugout
Keith's band was Little Boy Blue and the Blue Boys. Brian had no band anymore at that point. He asked Kieth if he could join Keith's band with the ONLY guy who answered his advert, IAN Stewart.
Keith agreed.
*“The band is really an amalgamation of two bands. The one being an R&B band I formed about a year ago, and the other being a group run by Mick and Keith in S.E. London.

The myth that Brian decided to form a band and auditioned every member and hand picked who he wanted is a blatant lie and over the years it has become a widespread myth. The fact is that Brian joined Keith's band and then that band changed their name to the Rolling Stones.

Keith's debut solo album _Talk is Cheap_ was described at the time as "sounding more like the Rolling Stones than the Rolling Stones", but it was really Keith taking a big swipe at Mick.
46:18 “The Stones took a break in the mid-1980s to consider their options.”
Only because Mick and Keith couldn’t work together.
Mick’s gripe was Keith: Keith asleep backstage but no-one wants to wake him because he keeps a loaded gun under his pillow, Keith asleep in the studio, Keith flew off to Jamaica instead of mixing the album, Keith slugging press photographers/destroyed a hotel room/gotten into a fistfight with the locals/fallen into a coma. Keith asleep or not showing up until hours after the scheduled start time. The bandmate Keith personally vouched for (Woody) is freebasing again and Mick is singing at a stadium backed by not one but two guitarists falling over onstage. Then there’s Charlie’s heroin addiction…
Keith’s gripe: Mick was working hard on his solo career trying to ditch the Stones, and in 1983 had deviously signed a deal with CBS for three solo records for millions of dollars on the back of a Stones contract, without a word to anybody in the band. Says Keith (from his book): “I don’t care who you are, you don’t piggyback on a Rolling Stones deal. Mick felt free to do that. It was total disregard for the band. We didn’t build this band up to stab each other in the back.” As for Keith’s frequent disappearance, he would level the same charge at Mick, who used up any songs he had written (for the Dirty Work_ album) for his solo album. Even as late as 1987, Mick was more than a tad reluctant to talk about the Stones, except to say “no-one should care if the Rolling Stones broke up”. That’s how bad it was between the Glimmer Twins.
Despite all this, they still look up to each other.
The Beatles went to India AFTER Sgt Peppers, not before.
Wonder what other information in this documentary is wrong.
Who is Keith Richards< I have heard a few people talk about him recently
Froch desperate for Rob to make excuses for him in the first Groves fight but Robs not having any of it. Love it.
2:10 How does Sid Griffin get into all these British rock documentaries? He wasn’t there for the beginning of The Beatles, Stones, etc.-he just knows all the stories and tells them like he was, droning on and on. He was born in 1955; bet he wasn’t hanging with the Stones when he was 10.
RIP Charlie
I have not heard the new album. I like many of the old songs like "Playing With Fire", "Paint It Black," and "Under My Thumb." I am sure it will be a great album. I like "Tumbling Dice" and many more songs like the one Mary Ann Faithful wrote that Mick recorded.
Mary Anne Faithful didn't write shit.....Lee Deuce former Baltimore stripper aka Jack the stripper.

Hokum - it was Brian Jone's band originally - he paid wages to Mick and Keith (when he felt like it !). Mick and Keith eventually took over as front men - even though Brian was probably the best musician in the band - but not the best person !
Jones was a poser and a talentless hanger on.
He did not found the Rolling Stones. He joined Mick and Keith's band that had been together for almost two years.
Too bad he couldn’t sing or write songs.
Yes - overall not a very nice individual but despite the singing / song writing he was a talented musician. If hed been allowed to live on, who knows what else he'd have done.@@maryr9398
His sorry ass couldn't touch Mick Taylor on guitar
What were you doing before you joined? ( Mick and Keith's band) .. *Um... well I was just sort of bumming around waiting for something to happen really. I had quite a few jobs and uh I was trying to get a band going but it was unsuccessful until I met up with Mick and Keith* ...---Brian Jones talking about joining the Blue Boys
Hard to believe Charlie Watts has been gone for over 2 yrs now. Will they keep on Rockin'?
The Blues and Soul music came int0 Britain not just via the ports of Liverpool, London, Bristiol, but Discos for American service men starioned in the Uk in small towns near the Bases they were stationed at.
Mick & Keith & Stewart?had a band ‘little boy Blue & the Blues boys ‘.Brian asked them to join him because he didn’t have a band at the time. So they all got together & Bill Wyman joined later & finally Charlie joined . So who started The Rolling Stones ? Brian brought them together sort of ?
Eric Burdon at 14 was hanging around the music venue in Newcastle meeting Louis Armstrong and Bo Diddeley and he also was inspired in the 1950s and was performing old blues music very early 1960s. They dont get the recognition they deserve but were clearly a working class band and not the fashion.
The beatles's friend😊
44:13 "Mick wanted to focus on his solo career". It was more than that. Mick had had enough of Keith's drug habit, drink habit (where Keith and Ronnie would fall over on stage), turning up for shows late, disappearing during recording sessions, getting into legal trouble...
This is incorrect....Brian Jones posted an advertisement to create a Blues band. Stu was the first show up...get your facts correct...this is hogwash
Paul Trynka lied to you about EVERYTHING! The advert that Stu posted in that JAZZ magazine was for a RHYTHM and BLUES band.
The claim has been made that Brian Jones never wrote anything and could not. This is false. Brian Jones wrote the soundtrack of the movie A Degree of Murder.
Mick and keith and almost like an old married couple they bicker but still love each other
bien,good.fantastic,etc.
This a terrible documentary, Brian with Stu put the Stones together, a 6 member group and then Oldham the manager got rid of Stu (chin to big) who became their Road Manager. Lots left out, any youngsters watching this get your info somewhere else. Brian Jones was my man in the Stones and unfortunately self destructed, still he was way ahead of Jagger and Keith as a bad boy, 2 illegitimate kids before the Stones which in 1962 was very bad behavior
Jones was an awful person.

I thought Brian put out an ad and that's how they got together..?
without the Beatles there is no Rolling Stones.
Keith has that artful dodger look with his top hat. He looks babacool.
They made a few memorable records, full stop
His name is Andrew OLDAM, not "Oldman". There are so many fundamental inaccuracies in this video.... the Beatles went to India and that resulted in Sgt Pepper???..... they went to India in Feb 1968 but Pepper had already been release in June 1967.
Fun to watch documentary. I feel like you’re gonna throw in some more stuff like the hiring of Nick Taylor, also, Brian Jones was physically emotionally abusive to Anita, and I got to the point where he was being physically abusive, and Keith simply got her out of the hotel room, that’s how that happened to save her from being beaten up you sure have included the fact that yes, the Hells angels killed a guy, but he was approaching the stage with a pistol his hand. This can be seen in the movie about Altimont gimme shelter .I kind of want to hear some tidbits on things like what is this song paint it Black about. anyway, it’s kind of a short video about decades of information cell there’s that
It's Mick Taylor

Jones had no band at the time. As he says he was UNSUCCESSFUL at getting a band going.So he met up with Mick and Keith and joined the Blue Boys.
The only one Brian "recruited" was pianist Ian Stewart.
No mention of Mick Taylor.
Their best music was the Mick Taylor period.
No mention of how the Beatles opened doors for the British Invasion.
The physical and psychological deterioration that happened with Brian Jones in the mere two years between '66 and '68 was horrifying. There didn't seem to be any way back for that man. A truly tragic figure. He may not have written the songs but he embodied the spirit, and they were never that great again.
