      They always hid his age during the early years so as not to upset the girls. Wouldnt have gone over very well if it got out that when they were in their eatly 20s, he was 31 (there used to be a saying among youngsters that "you shouldnt trust anyone over 30"). That was the demarcation line between kids and grown ups . I vividly remember the day Jagger turned 30 and buying Rolling Stone mag, where it asked the question "Is he not to be trusted anymore?"

Told him I saw him with The Boys on 07/01/66 on Atlantic City’s Steel Pier next to the Diving Horse! He told me that he remembered that date and venue. Total English Gentleman. And my former favorite bass player for still the World’s Greatest Rock and Roll Band.

    To think that the man in this interview spent years in one of the most successful and famous rock bands of all times is amazing. He's so kind and obviously full of the riches of great wisdom that he shares so generously. There's no trace of the self- centered attitude and ego that many pop starts are foolish enough to indulge in. So "down to earth" and warm with a deep appreciation of family and fellow Brits who endured a horrible war. So much respect for Mr Wyman. Bless him.

    Hey, Bill, great to see you. I remember sitting in Central Park in New York, when I was 19 (I"m now 76) reading this little paperback, a biography of the Stones (I was still learning to remember all you guy's names) and reading how your age was kept hidden from the fans (I think you were tagged as 24) because they didnt want the girls to know you were 31 years old . That put you above the age when you werent supposed to be trusted anymore (the age at which one was considered adult was 30 and one couldnt trust adults). I remember sitting there around 1 in the afternoon on a bench, reading that little book with total fascination. I was a huge fan from the first time I saw the Stones on the Red Skelton show on TV. The first time I heard you guys I stopped listening to the Beatles and didnt listen to them again until they came out with Rain and Paperback Writer . But the rhythm and riffs you guys put out beat the shit out of I Wanna Hold Your Hand . BTW, I always thought it was so cool the way you held the bass straight up . I thought maybe you learned playing on a stand up double bass . Now I figure it had to do with your small hands and it was easier to get your hands around the neck in that position. Best wishes to you, man. Thanks for all the great sounds .

    Great interview! For the record, a lot of food and supplies that did get through was from Canada. A lot of Canadian sailors died getting it there during the years long Battle of the Atlantic.

    Bill Wyman became my favorite Stone in 81 when he released Je Suis Rock un Star. Best summer of my life, and that song made it. His version of Stagger Lee is the Best.

      @2v_5r84 even her mother was ok with this,and remember how she was then,looking like anything else but a13 years old girl,and they got rich with the divorce,but yes,it was a great fault from Bill,for me the gay and lesbian priests of the english church are far more annoying

    Bill and Rain era Paul, not a bad grounding for a bass player. One time I heard a bassline I'd been playing on an old soul record, it was quite similar. And I realised I'd got it through Bill.
    There's something about hearing him talk completely outsidd the Stones set up. Edifying

    Bill moved in different time lines than other members. He was the oldest with a ten year difference.
