Brian was the first multi instrumentalist pop star. Absolute genius. RIP Mr Jones
I agree
No, also Scott Walker played every instrument!
@@cirrus1964 not about how much shit you can play, its about how well you can play it
@@cirrus1964 As popular as he was I don't think in terms of real 'pop stars' Scott Walker reached the heights that our dearly departed Mr Jones did.
@P. Hamilton And yet it is Jagger who is considered to be one of the harmonica greats!! I think 2120 was an absolute masterpiece on the harp, which of course was Jagger.
Jagger and Richards wrote those early Stones’ classics, but it was Jones who sprinkled the “magic dust” that took them into the next level.
I agree thanks
the stones had many rows about who wrote what the bass player wrote the riff to satisfaction ruby tuesday people said was mainly brian jones
If only Brian was alive to tell his side of the story 😊 R.I.P, Brian
Hell I think he should have got co writing credit on songs like 'Under my Thumb' where his hook makes the song. Jagger/Richards didn't want to give Mick Taylor co writing credit but a nice solo isn't the same as writing the main hook
@humphrey peek Bullshit and I've heard it all for decades. Of all the debates and arguments that's never been one of them. Keith wrote the lyrics, the music for Ruby Tuesday and the only debate is how much if any credit should brian have received for writing the melody with the recorder which he never really claimed to write the hook but enough solo was done that there are doubters. There is no doubt that Brian had absoultely nothing to do with Satsifaction. Bill Wyman years later claimed to have written the bass line to Jumping Jack Flash which is in doubt for one it's very similar to the Satisfaction riff.
I loved him then and I still love him now. The Only REAL Rolling Stone!
Brian Jones should be Inducted to Rock n roll hall of fame as a single muscian for his contributions a multi instrumentalist
I agree 100%! Thanks
@@TheGuitarShow agree, brian jones was a great musician, his talent should be noted by many.
What a beautiful and brilliant idea.
@@wagnergary7632 An idea which should be pursued.. A musician of unique stature
good idea
Thank you. Brian is one of the founding members. No matter what Mick and Keith say .
Pleasure Mark!
Mick and Keith never cast doubt on Brian's founding of the band. They discount his later contributions but both admit Brian was the early catalyst
@@TheGuitarShow They did not form that night they met. Mick wasn't even going to be the singer, Paul Pond was
There would be no Rolling Stones if not for Brian Jones he was the founding member he picked the name and picked the members it was his band.
true, i often muse how the Stones would have evolved had Brian lived and got back with the stones.he was a naturally gifted musician I know they would have been just as great
Yes they would have been named something else. Jagger and Richards were already together and singing the same songs before they met Jones. Jones had been trying to put a band together with no luck before he met Jagger and Richards. Without Jagger and Richards you would have never heard of Brian Jones. The Stones were about the music of Jagger and Richards. Jones is hyped to death because he died young. They hit their peak after he left.
Ian Stewart...
@@jerrypeters2095 It's probably true that the Stones hit their peak after Jones left, but even so- the Original lineup was great enough to go head to head with the Beatles, and that's not nothing. Some might say the Stones were BETTER than the Fab Four, because their shit was more blues-based, and they had a drummer that really swung.
They were exploring the Blues in a way nobody else was doing at the time, and that had a lot to do with Brian Jones.
Thats right!
Hendrix raved about Brian's guitar playing...................nuff said
So cool thanks
@@mattgrant6910 That he was the best slide guitarist in the U.K.
Bill Wyman now owns Brians Les Paul Gold top. I have a photo of me and Bill with it from the early 90's. Brian Jones is so underrated. You never see him in lists of great guitar players but he belongs there. People don't even know he started the Stones. There is a plaque at Dartford train station that says it's where Mick and Keith met and formed the Rolling Stones. He was so far ahead of others. 'The pipes of Joujouka' recordings are a great example of this.
mick and keith lie A LOT when it comes to Brian.
I remember just coming across that record in a record store back in 1981, didn't know it existed, so I bought it, and I was just floored by the Incredible music on that !!
Brian Jones: The Founder & Leader of The Rolling Stones! RIP
wanker
In 1965 the Stones played at the Civic Theatre in Auckland . I was 14 and obsessed with the Stones . Brian was playing the white Vox Teardrop , Keith was probably playing an Epiphone ....... my first concert.
Amazing thanks for the memories!
Thats cool my kiwi brother
I enjoy watching great guitar players. Brian being one of them. God Bless him.
Interesting stuff. Mainly, I want to thank you for talking about Brian Jones, a true 60s rock giant that many people still don't know or remember.
Pleasure Steven! Brian Jones has always big influence! Thanks for watching!
we remember the genius he was
I still think of Ron Wood as the new stand-in for Brian
Wonderful commentary on one of the most influential rock musicians ever.`And like it or not, The Rolling Stones never sounded the same after they lost Brian. Just listen to the Live in Hawaii set on RUclips and you'll hear what I mean.
Thanks - I will check out that youtube video - thanks for watching.
@@TheGuitarShow Use headphones!
Heard them in Melbourne Australia in 1966.
Was looking forward to hearing Keith but came away surprised that most of the cool sounding catchy hooks were played by Brian.
Walkin the dog, last time, Little red rooster, Mona.
2,500 mostly screaming girls, Brian (teardrop Vox) & Keith (Les Paul or Bluesbird?) had un miked Vox ac30’s, Bill a Vox T60 and his Framus.
Wow thanks for this Rob!
Did he play the intro to Walkin The Dog ? the one on the record? I have often suspected he played far more than he is given credit for.
Brian played the hooks but Keith seemed to play most of the non slide solos. Always wonder why they didn't split them up more evenly
So lucky Rob!! This exactly happened to me. But many years later when Brian Jones was long time gone... When I discovered him I thought what a pity he was not there when I saw the band played back in the 90's..
@@marrakeshexpressuk He actually sand back up vocals on that song!
Thanks for this, great documentary about a great guitarist, brilliant player and so sad that Brian is no longer with us. RIP Brian, we are still listening to your fabulous sounds.
Pleasure Derek
He used the Rose Morris 1993 on "Blue Turns to Grey" and the Rick 360-12 was used on "Get Off of My Cloud" and "Mother's Little Helper". He had a way of using instruments differently and sneaking them in, so it can be a pleasant challenge to locate where else he might have used a Rick 12. But being a multi-instrumentalist, it would be difficult to classify any one instrument as his "signature'. Blues harp, Dulcimer, Recorder, Sax, Tanpura, Sitar, Congas, keyboard, 6 & 12 string acoustic and electric guitar... and who knows what else he brought into the mix.
Genius! He added a creative side to the Stones that set them apart and they were never the same without him.
Brian used a Gibson Firebird with slide to play No Expectations At the Rock & Roll Circus. Wonderful clip here.
Thanks David!
I think it was in open A tuning
Brian Jones was way ahead of his time he was one of the best Rolling Stones
THE best
Jones is a musical genius. He always added something special...
Like when he inhaled helium to do the ohhh la la'S on she's like a rainbow, doing it again on 2000 light years from home...
The sitar on paint it black... His contribution to under my thumb.. All the instruments he played on ruby tuesday...
His slide guitar on no expectations.. I could keep going and going...
Sadly alot of people have no clue who Mr. Jones is....
That makes me love him and his music even more...
Mr. Jones has been dead longer than I've been alive...
Still he left a piece of his soul behind in the music..
OCTOBER DUSK No Helium. Voices sped up.

I probably said something you tube didn't like again
LOVE BRIAN JUST AMAZING MUSICIAN... GREAT DUDE.... R.I.P. BRIAN... THANK YOU FOR THE MUSIC 🎸🎸🎸🎹🎸🎤🎤🎼🎵🎶♥️
Glad you enjoyed it
Brian Jones started the Stones, named them and was important to the original artistic sound. IMO, the Stones never regained that level without him. They were very good after Brian but became musically predictible. Brian just couldn't handle fame and lost his head. God rest his soul.
Absolutely agree with you Tod! Thanks for watching
I agree totally. He had the sound I associated with them. Bluesy overtones
Sorry your wrong...the band was best with MICK TAYLOR..Brian BRIAN WHO?
tod dubow BS
Absolutely !
Imagine starting a group that gets really popular and then slowly start getting shunned out of it. Keith and Mick still parade themselves still on the coattail Brian gave them
Yeh! Jones even taught KEITH how to play at the start!! KR could only play 3 chords!!
You my friend are a wally
@@MrThedonhead if you disagree somebody's post, please post something to show why they are wrong, provocative name calling adds nothing to the debate except to show your own ignorance and make things unpleasant for everybody else
This is true although unfortunately I have basically now forgotten all the rift that was between them at the time . I really believe that Brian gave them the push when they were a young band to get them going. Up in heaven Brian can look down and be proud of what he accomplished.
What, no Harmony Stratotone?
I only listen to the Stones when Jonesy was with them. After he went,there was so much missing,which has never been regained.
Me too! Thanks for watching Ian.
Just not true. Exile after he died is a buffet of different sounds, as were Can You Hear The Music on Goat's Head, New Wave and Disco on Some Girls, etc.
Rolling Ormond .......ironically, thanks to Mick Taylor lifting their game. Although promised, MT (who most assuredly helped compose songs) was shown precisely the same amount of credit, zero!
@@lindadote Mick Taylor just masturbated solos, didn't contribute to their exploration of Gospel, Funk, Country, Disco, etc. post- Jones.
steve conn aka Rolling Ormond ......yes, I could have worded things better since Mick Taylor wasn’t around for the “Disco” debacle (utterly *woeful* crap imo). I’d say MT was infinitely more important to the band than your crude description indicates. It’s a fact that “Moonlight Mile” and “Sway” were composed without Keith who was “otherwise occupied” at the time and Jagger most assuredly didn’t compose these songs alone. Then there’s the gorgeous “Winter” off GHS. To describe a virtuoso guitarist (the man joined John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers at just 17 years of age) in the manner you do is disheartening at best. Ultimately, music is a personal thing so really only as good as the individual listener “hears” it or more correctly, *feels* it. Speaking for myself, the Stones have sounded bloody awful for far too long and I can’t remember the last time their music made me “feel” a thing. I love “music” as opposed “noise” so derived great pleasure from Jones’ and Taylor’s contributions. Different strokes....
Brian always ahead of everyone else with guitars, that Green Gretsch , WOW, beautiful !
One of my biggest influences!
I’m another who was around in Brian’s time and really enjoyed the early Stones. Although I loved Mick Taylor’s gorgeous guitar work, it’s a fact that the early music had a uniqueness to it, thanks to Brian’s varied use of instruments. A sound (and magic) the band have *never* managed to recapture. I lost interest in the Stones a very long time ago, the music became far too predictable and repetitive imo. Huge thanks for sharing this.
Very true Linda!
You lost interest in the stones but call yourself Linda Jones 😂😂😂 get a life!!
Yes. I never lost interest but I was never marvelled at their different line ups and music changes. A couple of songs yes, but I was not a diehard fan anymore.
@@MrThedonhead you need to get a life 😂😂😂
@@gideonharris1493 Many share your opinion.
Thoroughly enjoyed the video with photographs and not a robot voice. Thank you for sharing this information with us. Cheers!
Pleasure Petr!
I saw Brian(with The Rolling Stones) in Dallas in 1964.
Amazing thanks Tim!
I saw them at the Long Beach, CA civic auditorium same year. Lots and lots of screaming girls.
I remember him playing the 12 string on a few tracks on December’s Children.
Thanks Gerald
It was seeing Brian playing that Firebird VII on Ed Sullivan that made me say "I've got to play one of those."
Nice Jack - I want one now as well!!!
Jack Grattan ...awesome guitar...always thought it looked a bit wrong on him though
i turned down one for $85 in 1970!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! David J
Incredibly detailed. I love this. Thank you for your immaculate research! Superb job!!

Wow, so cool. I saw many photos of Brian here, that I never saw before. Fantastic.
Pleasure!
Brian Jones was the man. Absolute legend. Had great taste in guitars too. I love that gold top he used on the Rock n Roll Circus
I agree!
Very underrated player, Brian was.. someone actually gave me Vox teardrop & the neck was like a road map, I guess too much beer spillage over the years... 😁
agreed Brian was so innovative for the time - I want a teardop!
@@TheGuitarShow It was a very cool guitar.. I was in a custom guitar shop & showed it to the luthier, he wanted it bad so I sold it, he said he was going to put a neck on it, but I remember the leather belt scratch protector on the back just like you mentioned...
Amazing - they are such an iconic 60s guitar and of course associated with B. Jones. Ill keep a look out! Thanks@@gearmeister
@@TheGuitarShow Will do.. I've seen them in pawn shops but I'd bet collectors are snatching them up nowadays
The Guitar Show Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers Had These Featured On Many Of Their Songs. I Play Left Handed Models, Try To Find One Of These. So Many Guitars, So Little Time.Do Jerry Garcia, Please. Lovely Show, Thanks All At Guitar Show.
Well done, good job well researched with a great choice and selection of photos. That Gretch is an absolute beauty. Brian was such a one off genius. He disected all the blues in all it's forms and then he taught the other chancers in his band the Rollin Stones how to play authentically. Being the greedy little shits they are they stole his thunder and left him high and dry. It was criminal that his band members and so called friends never helped Brian get the help he needed.
@@gloriapascoe2614 agree 100%
Nice intro and narration of the guitars; how I loved that sunburst ES 330 that Brian mostly used along with that non reverse Gibson Firebird - 2 beauties.
Thanks, yes I agree those two are stand outs for me along with the Gretsch and Vox!
If you want a more comprehensive history of Brian's guitars / instruments as well as the rest of the band, buy a copy of "Rolling Stones Gear" by Andy Babiuk & Greg Prevost. Both members of the legendary garage rock band and early Stones influenced band - the Chesterfield Kings. Both also worked at the infamous House of Guitars in Rochester, NY.
I saw the Stones 10July1966 here in Chicago. Opening acts were The Standells and the McCoys.
So cool
Excellent summary. Big fan of BJ. Please do more .
Pleasure Robert - more coming soon!
thanks for all the research you do on these videos Ramon. I like those pictures with Brian Jones and the green Gretsch, so crispy and fresh looking.
Pleasure Sam yes the Gretsch is a beauty
Sam Haddad About 20 years ago I was in a music shop in a back street in Earl’s Court in London. I couldn’t believe my eyes when in the corner I saw a green Gretsch Anniversary exactly like Brian’s.
I asked the owner about it and he told me it had belonged to Brian.
I was beside myself with happiness and asked if I could pick it up and he said yes.
I am a left handed guitar player so I had a quick strum upside down as I have taught myself to play upside down to a certain extent.
It was such a great feeling to hold and play one of Brian’s famous guitars.
While I was playing the owner told me that he had Keith Moon’s monogramed drum kit from 1967/1968 downstairs.
I went into the basement and there it was stacked up in the corner.
While I was in the shop Billy Duffy of The Cult walked in.
What a great serendipitous day.
@@BigSky1 fascinating absolutely fascinating, thank you for your insight
amazing some of these shots or guitars I never seen with Mr.Jones
Pleasure brother
Mick Taylor played a fantastic lead guitar, but Brian played everything that rendered a Sound, ha.
I agree thanks
Brian WAS the ROLLING STONES- it's a shame that Paul Jones didn't want to take a chance in forming a credible Blues and R&b band, unfortunately the VERMIN jagger & richard took over and drove Brian with their sociopathic behavior and questionable roles in his Murder.
@@maxroyle6750 Had nothing to do with his murder. Luded out in a warm pool, bye-bye.
Great video! Thank you for posting. I can look at great old guitars all day and am a huge Stones fan. Keith had a Guild Blues Bird and I'm looking forward to seeing your video about his guitars. Cheers!
pleasure Keith coming soon!
Yes, thanks. Interesting history for guitar lovers. Well done.
Pleasure Debra - thanks for watching.
Yeah the Rolling Stone that you are not meant to talk about. I still don't know why; but he did a great job of nurturing / mentoring the band musically in those early years. They still use his licks.
Agreed Paul
I saw him play his Apple Green Gretsch at the Bournemouth Winter Gardens in 1964.
Love his tone on the main lick on "The Last Time."
Thank you. Learning musical history can be fun with photos added. Great job, but still very sad. Thanks again.
Thanks John - yes sad to see Brian leave so early.
Great coverage of some obscure and highly desirable guitars. Brian had great taste in instruments. I know cuz I owned examples of several of these guits and boy were they fun!
Thanks
Just watched this fascinating chat on Brian & his guitars. Highly informative, Ramon; l learned many new things.
Thanks Kaz x
I can't abide how disregarded he seems to be nowadays, he was a musical genius.
I agree sharon
He was disregarded since he became a dope addict and died of an overdose. Got it?
That big acoustic towards the end was an SJ-200 I believe.
You could be right there Steven
It is. No such thing as J-600
It might be a J200 (Not sure when they dropped the 'S' as a designator) But it is definitely a 200. The 400 was a different guitar frequently seen on the Grand Ole Opry and there was no 600 I've ever come across.
The pickguard is correct (though the 1985 Celebrity J200 has a pickguard as was seen on the 400.
David Gilmour supposedly has 4 of the Celebrity J200 of the 90 made.
Incredible series! Thank you for doing this
Such an exquisite and eclectic taste, it seemed sometimes that he wore guitars like an extension to his wardrobe 😁
Missing from here is that beautiful Vox electric mandolin style guitar, probably from around 67/68
Great video you've done a fantastic job, I really loved the goldtop 🎸🎸🎤🎵
Thanks Dean glad you liked it!
Brian didn't grow up listening to blues, he started listening to blues at about the age of 15.
Thanks Anthony
Thank you, this was an amazing video! The white Vox Teardrop is my holy grail. Johnny Thunders played one for a tv appearance, but I can’t think of anyone else who has ever played that guitar. To this day, that’s Brian’s guitar. I own a 63 Vox phantom & matching bass, but I’d trade them both for a white teardrop. Anyway, thanks again!
Dave Wakeling (Vocals and Guitar) of The Beat (British post punk SKA band late 70s early 80s) played white Vox Teardrop. Still does I think.
@@harveyyoung3423 I saw the Beat a few years ago, I don’t think he played it, but prolly didn’t want to bring it to America.
Really great offering here. Thank you. A Harmony Rocket II was my first good guitar so anything related is welcome. TearDrop is probably what i saw Brian play on TV first back in the '60s but saw Got Live If You Want It and the non reverse Firebird then High Tides and Green Grass, the VII. Man, Guitar Player had a feature on Brian and i quipped "Great shot of Brian with a Cadillac around his neck. oh Its a Firebird VII''. Wish someone could find the Dulcimer he used for Lady Jane. He could learn a new instrument in less than a day.
Pleasure - I agree with you in regards to his multi instrumental skills - such an inventive and creative individual - thanks for watching!
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio (USA) claims to have the Appalachian Dulcimer that Brian played on several of the Stones' recordings. I have a photo that I took of it during a visit there, and man, did I want to relieve them of their ownership of it, but that's another story! (just kidding, I would never steal anything, but I would have liked to touch it)---alas, it is sheltered behind thick glass to protect it from fools like me! If I could post a pic of it I would, but I don't think that's possible to do here.
@@TheGuitarShow I saw Brian Jones play the Dulcimer mentioned above at their concert here in New York City in July of 1966--I had never even *heard* of the instrument at that point in my life, but there he was, playing the thing! He had to play it sitting down, incidentally. There are no neck straps for dulcimers, as far as I know!
Brian did sound effects on yellow submarine
Jones played alto saxophone on the Beatles song "You Know My Name"
Well done! I never knew about the Gibson endorsement deal.
Pleasure Noah!
Never knew that guitar manufacturers gave endorsement deals. Interesting!
cool show nice getting to see all the different guitars Brian used
Pleasure Mark and thanks for watching.
Brian was the genius behind the Rolling Stones as well as the creator of the band. I was surprised to hear that Brian taught Keith to play. Brian played rythm but his dominant guitar sound often pushed Keith to the background. Brian also played a sitar but it's not mentioned here. The Stones banning Brian from the group permanently was a mistake. After Brian got over his drug problem, he should have been brought back. The Stones never recaptured their pre 66 originality. Brian was murdered, so we will never know what he could have accomplished. He was in legalities over his forced departure from his band. Speculation is that was the real reason he was murdered, which would have implicated Jagger and Richards. But nothing was ever thoroughly investigated, so we will never know.
The Vox factory was in Dartford where Mick and Keith grew up.......and myself too so thats how i know.
Thanks - I've passed many time over the bridge but never had a chance to stop over.
The Guitar Show I live near Brighton now but go back to Dartford a couple of times a year. I was born in the same hospital as the glimmer twins 😉. The Dartford boys grammar that Mick went to has a a large music centre called the Jagger block which I believe he paid for.
Yes I heard about the Jagger block - I didnt know where it was though - I always assume that Jagger was from West London - but thanks for the info @@noseyparker6622
Another great episode!! Looking forward to many more!

Really interesting im in canada we dont get to see alot of vox or hofner vintage guitars here . Love that pic of brian and keiths tele man
Pleasure! Let me know if you need help finding a guitar, best R.
I'm annonymous - Well....if you're ever in Toronto then check out The Twelfth Fret. World class guitar shop. If you're going to find those guitars in Canada that's where they would be.They also have a website. If you're a Canadian and a guitar player then I'm sure you know the place. There's a reason the Stones kick start theirs North American tours in Toronto and play special dates here..they love the city.
Very interesting. His instrumental talent and self destructiveness are worthy of many more documentaries
Hey, I loved that. I was such a big fan of the Stones, I knew most the guitars. I bought a teardrop Vox 12 string strung with only 6 strings, as my only guitar for 10 years. One day I was at a music shop as a guy was about to buy the same guitar as mine for silly money. I know this is bad, by slide up to him and said, I'll sell that guitar to you for half as much. He bought it. I had cash. I bought an incredible "The Paul" for about what I sold the Vox for and then Katy bar the door. I had been playing a very old Cadillac and now I had the keys to the Corvette. 20-years later I'm a Strat player but I was a Les Paul guy for many years. Anyway, my 12-string Vox teardrop story.
You stated Brian used an acoustic Gibson J 600...I believe it's a Gibson J 200. I Googled J 600 and there is no reference for such a model. Thank you very much for this series. Very informative on the evolution of these artist's sound and the gear that got them there.

A new band with brian jones at the helm or even just a brian jones solo career would of been revolutionary and blown the stones out of the water. He was like neil young - not afraid to experiment and talented in many genres. Not to mention a damn good instrumentalist.

Nice job ... I saw him in 1967 in St Louis Mo. for their concert. The McCoys led off the festivities that evening. I was 19 and the lead singer in a local St Louis band. I really wasn't impressed with them because they weren't a tight group. It sounded real garage band. Nice video. Brian was a very Interesting member of the group and a big lose. He did Lady Jane on what I guess was a dulcimer that night. He Actually impressed me more than the rest of the group. 👍
Rick Temmen Must have been summer 1966 as the Stones did not tour the U.S. in ‘67. Last tour with Brian was Europe in March/April 1967.

Man,, I'm 56 and some these guitars look soooo sweet. The vox teardrop ( amazing sound ) , The 335's !!!! The Pauls which were only 10 or so years old - since serial #1 !!!!! The Rickenbackers Man. Not knowing what I had -a 72 Gibson Les Paul, I bought in 77 for a pretty penny, I got a job as a singer, toured for 3 years and there was no earthly reason ...but it was taken from a car we used on the road. They could have had a 62 or 63 SG but nope . I miss it more the older I get. - nice fat 70's neck, which I planed and sanded down, a ' pop ' switch as a booster, all white with black binding - white down th neck. Just a beauty. xxxooo wherever you are.

The final guitar shown may be an Epiphone rather than a Gibson. Note the dog ear pickups and the small knob at the bottom left of the pick guard at 10:50. It may be an Epiphone casino.
A rare model that Gibson J-600.
I should have spent a little more time on his acoustics tbh - thanks!
Yeah - no. That would be a J-200. Never heard of a J-600. I'd bet that it's a Blond J-200 in that studio shot when I heard that "J-600" in the V/O.
@@f5mando Thanks for this guys!
@@f5mando J200
@@TheGuitarShow As a side note, the J-200 is probably the most valuable guitar he handled. Anyway, I believe they are the most underrated instruments. A night and day difference from anything else out there for their sound. If you ever get a chance to play one don't pass it up. The J-200 practically plays by itself.
Soon after Brian Jones died Keith Richards sold his VII. That person was of the impression that it was Brian's guitar. It's only now that the penny has dropped. I better tell him.
cool thanks - let me know any more details! Thanks for watching
@@TheGuitarShow I can tell you that ownership passing from Keef to the other fellow was transacted by you could say a member of Beatles. The cheque made out to Keith was £200. The 2nd owner informed me he could tell that the guitar had long been unused, his careful observation.
