Great wee documentary! Nice Content. Keep up the good work. 💖🐶🔊
I could laugh at the ready, steady, cook mistake but the important thing here is you are educating people about this amazing band! Well done
Thank you. Its good to hear off people who overlook some of my mistakes
It's not like nobody else makes mistakes so don't worry, it's good what you're doing
Yeah I gotta say, I loved seeing Brian playing the sitar, it really showed the intricacies In playing that instrument, and of the part he was playing, I think it was paint it Black! I started listening to the stones around 69, and Brian had passed away, but I listened to get yer ya'ya's out. I would have been 5 at the time. Anyway I had to back track to discover Brian, and what I knew about him, by the time I was old enough to really have a point of view about it, I think you really got it right, Brian was something while they we're really nothing, and he did shape both of them into decent musicians. He taught Mick to play harmonica, taught Keith more about guitar than I think anyone wants to admit, but those years at Edith Grove, absolutely created the stones, and what they were all about. Initially that was weaving and you made that point. Mick Taylor was a soloist, a beautiful soloist, but that's about it! Brian had way more too offer, unfortunately he couldn't deliver in the end!! But yeah great content, and concept!!✌️
@@filmretrospective5334 I thought you meant it, just for a laugh :)) Made me smile anyway. This was a very interesting biography, thanks.
first appearance on ready steady cook lol
I was waiting for someone to pick up on that 😂
LOL! I heard that, too!
I heard that and thought maybe it was changed due to copyright laws.
😂😂
Imagine a guy saying that before they shove it in lol
I think some people are meant to shine very brightly, fir a very short time, and then burn out. Brian was one of those. Despite his early death, his legacy lives on. We are still,54 years later talking about Brian Jones.
Yes Dope and alcohol has a tendency to do that
Sad that so many people used Jones' death to sell books. Hope they all get the Karma they deserve.
Fitzgerald's book is a complete mess, that's for sure, but there's one item in the autopsy report that's nearly always glossed over: the punctate hemorrhages in Jones's brain. This sometimes occurs as a result of epileptic seizures, and Bill Wyman--who roomed with Jones for years on the road--has speculated that the late guitarist was an undiagnosed epileptic. But the hemorrhages may have resulted from physical trauma.
...Or drug and alcohol abuse.
Do you recall if Bill Wyman went into any more detail about that at all ?
It would be interesting to know what he had actually observed that led him to believe he may have been undiagnosed epileptic .
What about The Pipes of Pan at Joujouka?
The real shame to this story is that the true genius behind this band died before he could continue further musical contributions with the world. Sadly substance abuse has robbed the world of many gifted souls. RIP Brian.
Ps. It was Brian who who brought extraordinary and diverse musical textures to the Stone's sound , which vanished from from every album after his death.
Post-Brian the stones settled down to playing the same couple of songs for the next few decades. Good songs, but nothing new.
Jones was NOT a genius and he never contributed anything to the Stones.
great recap
Thanks for watching
Really well done. Thanks for sharing. No irrelevant bullshit, just the story.
Nice one.
Brian’s last work with the Stones was playing Auto Harp on Midnight Rambler.
You Got The Silver not Midnight Rambler.
Midnight Rambler Brian only played a Conga drum.
He played guitar full-time from the early 60s until his death and never recorded any songs that he wrote as far as I know. But did anyone ever look more like a pop star than him?
HIS SONGS ARE RECORDED BUT THE GLIMMER TWINS KEPT STEALING THE CREDITS TOTAL A*HOLES
He co-wrote the early Stones' hit songs
Very well done and informative doc. Shame someone as talented as Brian went out like that.
Keylock lied about that claim of Thorogood doing Brian Jones.
That he did
But why?
@@mcashnvbecause he did it
Exactly !!!

Brilliant mate!!
Hey good job. I like your written as much as the found video. Good job.
Glad you enjoyed it!
BAD JOB
Brian was brilliant and he got the whole thing going. He was also psychologically injured, which undermined his life. People like that shouldn’t play with Acid long. From 1967 on, he rarely contributed meaningfully to songs. The songwriters always lead a band, and Brian didn’t write well. The rest is the story of excess and decline.
Thanks for watching
90° pool water, high levels of alcohol in his blood? That's a recipe for disaster. Thirty years later, it was happening frequently with drunk people in Jacuzzis.
That just slip below the water and drown.
Too right mate!!Keep up the work it’s all we have,the work…
Always!
Been loving these features on musicians (especially the ones for The Beach Boys) is there any other people you'll be covering in the future?
ill be doing Mick and Keith soon. Probably kurt cobain. But the more subscribers i get the more i'll upload. Thanks for watching!
@@filmretrospective5334 I'll deffo be tuning in, keep up the good work!
Very sad story about Brian Jones' death in 1969.
This man was very talented!
No JONES, NO STONES!!!
They seemed to do OK without him...I'm sure he would've been fine as well, given the facts concerning how well he was doing professionally and personally at the time.
Very enjoyable. Well done!
Many thanks! working on the next now
@@filmretrospective5334Good man, I’ve just subbed!👍🏻
Good account thank you
Welcome
Good video!
thanks more on the way
Interesting little doc thx
no problem, more on the way
This is a great peice on Brian. Would love you to do one on Jimi hendrix. Thank you for this gem 💎
NO THANX HE IS JUST SPEWING A LOT OF HE SAID SHE SAID BS...bRIAN WAS INNOOCENT AND WAS MURDERED
I liked it, the home scene with his parents had to a big influence his personality. He was the best straight up musician in the band in my opinion....like Syd Barrett's life he reached for the answers too soon and ..Kicked out of home at 17 ...The G tuning and his love of American blues was the start of the Stones.....
Thanks for watching
The mysterious thing to me about Brian Jones is not so much his death but how he came to have so much money ? Most of the Stones' song-writing royalties would've gone to Jagger and Richards and performance royalties are notoriously meagre. And yet he was able to buy this house, pay a fortune for alterations, and finance an extremely expensive drug habit, both for himself and numerous hangers on. Now that IS a mystery.
Thanks for watching
It depends. I think bands like the Beatles and the Stones got good incomes with the gigs. They were very very famous and were constantly touring until 1966. I think he also earned money with the sells of the records. It's not only the writer and the composer who earn royalties. The other members of the band also earn more money when the record sells good. His wage as a member of the band was maybe more important. Charlie Watts, Roger Daltrey or Keith Moon although they've never been composers were not poor either.
People like this have people around who often bring dope. Brian also got a very gracious financial settlement from the stones. Basically he could retire comfortably at 27.
I read one if those books a long time ago, atleast it might have been one of those, anything to make a buck. Awesome video.
Grossly unlikely there would be hash cakes. Brian was paranoid about having illegal substances on the premises and hash was included. There is a problem about Brian drowning as he was a very good swimmer
Brians girlfriend Anna was there at the time and she thought something suspicious was going on that day
Cool to see a photo of the preety things The stones rivals only much better!
After hearing his life story I can understand why he was depressed, and having mood swings.
Fire the founder of the group is ballsy and low. Brian had a huge drug problem that was fueled by Richards who did the same to others. Richards somehow survived while the others including Brian and Gram Parsons did not.
The Stones could not tour the US with Brian’s outstanding court issues. It was the only way to go, and Brian was unhappy in the Stones anyway. A very mutual solution that had to happen. They were all mates but up against a wall is all. Sad
I think the midnight rambler was Keith!!! " He'll steal your mistress from under your nose"
That’s true! I know I did plus a 100 other guys & gals I’ve known in my time. Who knows? Maybe it was the gal stealing the guys buddy!
@@jamesmarshall3521
Sex, drugs, rock n roll.
Theres no loyalty amongst those ragamuffins.
Brian Jones was an outstanding man!!! Rest in Peace Brian! You're the first Stones!!!!!!
Brian Jones was murdered in 1969 by drowning.
Thanks for watching
I used underestimate how important Brian was to the Stones. I now understand. Regardless, it’s the Jagger/Richards compositions that matter most. Beggar’s Banquet through Some Girls is an astonishing run of 10 years of perfect to nearly perfect albums. It didn’t hurt to have a young Mick Taylor for most of those LPs.
If Keith Richards and Mick Jagger were the mind and body of the Rolling Stones, Brian Jones, standing most of the time in the shadows, was clearly the soul. If it wasn't for Brian then the songs would be oh so plain. Brian added a special touch with all those exotic instruments to each song. As Bo Didley would say, He’s the only white cat that ever got my rhythm.” - Bo Diddley speaking of Rolling Stone, Brian Jones, 1963. Brian’s musical prowess did not extend to composing but examples of his talent can be heard on numerous Stones recordings, among them, his slide guitar on “I’m a King Bee,” “Little Red Rooster,” and “No Expectations” from Beggars Banquet. He plays the sitar on “Street Fighting Man” and “Paint It, Black;” organ on “Let’s Spend the Night Together;” marimba on “Under My Thumb” and “Out Of Time;” recorder on “Ruby Tuesday;” dulcimer and harpsichord on “Lady Jane;” saxophone and oboe on “Dandelion;” mellotron on “She’s A Rainbow;” and his harmonica playing graces “Not Fade Away,” “2120 South Michigan Avenue,” and “Prodigal Son. Mick and Keith are noted for ripping people off. Marianne Faithful said, Ruby Tuesday was mainly composed by Brian but he got no credit ! Mick Taylor wrote Moonlight Mile but received no credit and other songs he wrote ! Brian composed the soundtrack, A Degree Of Murder. The Rice Krispies jingle and helped to write Eight Miles High with Gene Clark but Brian didn't want any credit .
@@SuperAnimelover100 That's the truth!
It didn't hurt to have Bobby Keys, Jim Price, and Nicky Hopkins for most of those LPs either.
Great musician, the founder of The Rolling Stones! Terrible how they treated him but Brian had many issues with Drugs and he Overdosed.
Great musician, the best in the history of the Stones, unless someone wants to make an argument for Mick Taylor, but Brian, as a person? Didn’t he father like five children by five different women before he was 25? He deserves praise for his musical contributions, but enough of the hero worshiping.
I wish I had been around the London scene in the mid-late 1960s (I was born in the early 70s). Brian needed another taffy musician around to keep him grounded. I am also a Jones, and play multiple instruments and I am well-educated. I would have given him a place to be accepted and taught him how to speak his native tongue. Nos da a heddwch
But it wasn't forgotten about was it Jagger and Richard never forgot
I watched the BBC doc about him and he seemed psychologically damaged. Like the kid from Clockwork Orange
Does anyone know if part of the reason Brian was kicked out of his parents house was for doing drugs?
Es ist Leuten wie uns zu verdanken, dass Opa auch heute mal nen roten Anorak anziehen darf !!!!!!
The pool was too hot and it gave Bryan a assma attack like it can if you get in to a hot tub that is what killed Bryan Jones
One of the first 27 club members,yeah I think Mick had him rubbed out
Thanks for watching
Nope
Robert Johnson was 30 years before Brian.
What would he done had he lived? He certainly had to get away from his demons first.
I was about 10 when Brian sadly passed away, i wasn't aware at the time to much of the details, because i was to young to understand.
He had many children. I wonder where his money went.
he was drowned in the freshwater trough and his body was thrown in the pool, educated guess ?
Psychic said , Brian didn't drown in the pool but they killed him somewhere else and dumped him in the pool.
That was why he was on the bottom his lungs were full of water or he would have been floating..
As mentioned, someone with a delicate psyche should lay off the acid. And no guy in his 20s should be taking quaaludes.
The Stones lost a dimension to their music when Jones was spun off, but like you said, that was his own doing.
He was ready to take off on a musical venture. He had many many associations of musical ability that would have worked with him. Many musicians just want to play and don’t have the patience to “work out “a tune for hours , even the studio work is frustrating to them, they just want to play and Brian was that kind of guy. “Jones & Friends “ would have been a memorable project.
He had no discipline, no matter any talent he had! Ask all his children?!
He is a Brit wearing an American flag as an tapestry? Any patriot knows the field of blue is always on the top left, as viewed !Zero respect for that
Thanks for watching
He was English..not American..so he didn't care..
??? What!! It’s being used as clothing, really , for that use who cares about being correct. John Entwhistle bass for the Who had a jacket made for the likeness of the British flag. It’s a statement maybe but it’s just something to do. Brian was a Brit but maybe he liked America to show that (or not ).
sure Brian was great but Keef and Mick made the band songwriting is key to any band
Thanks for watching
Everybody thinks that it was Mick and Keith’s band, but it was Brian’s band.Brian was the person that created the Rolling Stones in the beginning. He chose the music. He chose the name. He was the leader. He signed all the recording contracts, the management contracts, all kinds of things.
Jones’s importance to the Stones went beyond minding their business affairs. As Rolling Stone magazine stated in an Aug. 9, 1969 cover story about Jones’s passing, “If Keith Richards and Mick Jagger were the mind and body of the Rolling Stones, Brian Jones, standing most of the time in the shadows, was clearly the soul.
@@SuperAnimelover100 exactly my friend 👍
It sure it.
@@SuperAnimelover100 Brian Jones was in charge, but couldn't maintain it for various reasons, he wasn't writing songs essential to their success, and he couldn't stay emotionally invested due to drugs and booze....it would be like saying without Graham Bond, Ginger Baker and Jack Bruce would have never been successful with Cream.
He was rubbed out by Jagger , Keith. It's been proven
Thanks for watching
Well said !!!
Don’t believe it…
What was motive and do you have anything to prove this...they kicked him out of the band and he did the rest himself.
He was a junky
When you take 'Ludes'& drink you will pass out. I've done it many times in late 1970's& early 1980's. That's what happened to Brian, and he passed out in the Water qualudes, are a downer& Brian, died by them& drowning. Period.
if the two principle protagonists where guilty it does not make sense if your a HANGER ON ..to kill the goose that's laying golden eggs lol
Other than Anna Wohlin Frank Thorogood and Tom Keylock benefited more off brian than anybody. They would have been the last people wanting him dead. Hence why Tom sent a nurse (Janet Lawson) to look over him.
At the time they all believed he drowned. But as the conspiracy theories began they started to change their mind and remember things differently.
The Only One who truely knows what happened to Brian, is GOD THE FATHER!!!!! 'NOUGH SAID. CASE CLOSED. 😢
As all the top rock musicians in England know, Brian went off the Golden Gate Bridge with Mick Jagger trying to pull him back..or maybe even push him, in front of the band and Tom Keylock.His death was a farce as reported. In fact it was a year off, he'd been hiding in the U.S.A. As far as the songs, they were great when he was in the band, and very average afterwords. A very simple deducement.I like some of the later stuff, off course, but I mean as far as charting well. There may be an expose someday, we'll be looking for it.
he was not a genius....that term is used far too much these days. He had a talent for picking up various instruments and playing them at least well enough to contribute to the band. As a guitar player he was , like Keith Richard, a garage band guitar player. He played some decent slide guitar, but nothing difficult.
