In 1960, an extremely gifted 18 year old musician named Brian Jones created a blues band that he named…. The Rolling Stones.
Jones brought in a brash young singer who defected from the London School of Economics, named Mick Jagger, along with Mick’s childhood friend, guitarist Keith Richards, to mold the core of the outfit.
The trio lived in the Chelsea section of London, in what Richards fondly referred to as a “beautiful dump.” `Jones and Richards played the guitar incessantly, listening to the music of blues greats Muddy Waters, Jimmy Reed, and Wille Dixon.
During those days in Chelsea, Jones taught Jagger how to play the harmonica. Jones was the leader of The Stones in those early days, pushing the band hard to breakthrough in London’s burgeoning music scene of the early 60s. His amazing ability to adroitly play nearly every instrument was invaluable to the sound of The Stones over their first 5 studio albums,
Jones’s versatility helped navigate the band artistically- protecting them from being pigeonholed when the popularity of psychedelia began to fade in favor of other musical trends. The Stones first blast on the singles chart in the UK, was their cover of Buddy Holly’s “Not Fade Away,” which climbed all the way to #3 in Great Britain.
The band’s first #1 was another cover- when they remade Bobby and Shirley Womack’s “It’s All Over Now” in ’64, followed by their first big charter in the U.S.- “Time is on My Side” that went to #6 also in ’64. Of course, The song that really positioned The Rolling Stones down the path to superstardom was “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction.”Even though, Mick & Keith didn’t like the finished version of “Satisfaction,” and wanted to re-do the track with a heavy horn section, the pair were outvoted by the rest of the band, and the single was released with historic results.
