Ridiculous mistake. Nicky Hopkins was part of the 1972 line up which toured America, the greatest live act there has ever been. You also failed to mention Jim Price, another member of that legendary ensemble.
Surprised Billy Preston wasn't mentioned - he played on five Stones albums and was their main touring keyboard player from 1973 to 1977. Preston can also lay claim to being an unofficial Beatle on the "Let it Be" sessions.
@@tylurmackinnon6217 I don't believe he claimed he was a member and this video isn't about only members it's about people who made musical contributions to the Stones. Billy Preston's contributions were pretty huge.

@Mike Barooshian The first band I ever saw live as a young kid in the sixties, with the original line-up of Mick, Keith, Brian,Bill and Charlie. When you start off by seeing the Stones it's all downhill after that. Not worth watching anyone else ! ( Status Quo were fantastic too though !)
Keith can have affection for Ian Stuart but should really stop ignoring the fact that Brian Jones out the whole thing together. Ian Stuart was around because of Brian Jones to begin with. Just more of Keith not acknowledging Brian’s contributions
Taylor was kind of overrated. Fretboard masturbator, a hundred notes where twenty would do. The Stones are essentially about Mick's attitude and Keith's riffs and their great songwriting, actually better song for song than the middle of the road Beatles.
@@steveconn Totally agree about Taylor. And let's not forget that he looked like a roadie. Stage presence zero. I do think he did some good stuff with the group but this muso conspiracy(!) about how the Taylor line-up was the best seems to be dragged up on every single Stones video. While the Beggars Banquet to Exile album run was great, for me, nothing compares to the the 1964 to 1968 run of singles: Little Red Rooster, The Last Time / Play with Fire, Satisfaction, Get Off My Cloud, As Tears Go By, 19th nervous Breakdown, Mothers Little Helper / Lady Jane, Paint It Black, Have You Seen Your Mother Baby, Let's Spend the Night Together / Ruby Tuesday, We Love You, She's a Rainbow / 2000 Light Years From Home, Jumpin' Jack Flash, Street Fighting Man... all featuring the best front line of any group ever: Jagger , Richards and Jones.
Taylor was the best guitarist for the Stones, but in the 70's the super bands were Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd... let's say the Stones, which are unique!!! they were the heirs of the Beatles, the survivors of Rock n Roll in black and white.
Ian Stewart was a virtuouso at the keys and beefed up Stones sound from embryo to Undercover. He was kept away from public image of the band due to not having that look the other lads did.
I remember the live stream from last year during quarentine. My dad said they looked like they came out of their graves. I saw them as legends. Im 16 btw
Both are true. I was amazed when the did a single during the 1990 Gulf War which was sorta topical and I thought wow they are still at it. That was 30 years ago...
Taylor was a great fit during the period the stones had him. Wood is is no monster on the guitar but he fit nicely with those late 70's records which were my favorite period of the band.
Brian laid the foundations of the Stones style, and Mick Taylor left the band in '74 as he wanted to kick his heroin habit and also he had wanted to contribute more songs while Mick and Keith were reluctant to let him.
@@setro5582 , somehow Oldham was able to convince them 6 was one too many. and, he was so much bigger & gangly, he didnt match 'the look'. today, that would be a plus.
Stew played piano w/ the Stones, but he never played minor chords. He would just stop playing till the next major came back around. He didn't like minor chords.
The only official members were Stewart, Jones, Wyman, Watts, Jagger, Richards. Jones replaced by Taylor and Taylor replaced by Wood. That’s it. The other musicians including Chuck Leavell who has been with them since 82 are not members.
You are correct. When Keith Moon died, the question the Who had to answer was, is Kenny Jones going to be a contractor, or a full member of the Who in the company from that point on. The Who decided to give Kenny 1/4 ownership. He was a full member, not a friend, not a volunteer, not a contractor.
@@trajan6927 Doubt he was. Keith always called him and Charlie the most important members. Not sure if Taylor ever had a share of the band I doubt it as well. It took Wood about 20 years to get a share of the band!
@@flyingburritobro68 I read in a few different places that Kenny was made a full member immediately and that was why Daltrey was not happy with the guys. Went on for years plus it them turned into Daltrey criticizing Kenny's ability. More friction. Who knows the truth but, those others were NOT members of the Stones. Cheers mate
The Rolling Stones lineup when they debuted in 1962 was : Mick Jagger vocals, Brian Jones guitar and harmonica, Keith Richards guitar, Dick Taylor bass, and Mick Avory drums. Bill Wyman and Charlie Watts would join late 62, early 63. Dick Taylor would later join the Pretty Things, Mick Avory would become one of the Kinks...
James Dandy. Quiet talented. Just ask LED ZEPPELIN!! BOOGIE WITH "STU" is a SMOK`IN boogie woogie track on PHYSICAL GRAFFITI(SWAN SONG)`75, 13TH track. The song is based on Ooh My Head by Ritchie Valens but thats another story
Mick danced like someone either about to trip over his own feet or about to have a seizure. He's incredibly entertaining, but Early Mick wasn't much to speak of regarding his dancing.
There is a beautiful memorial bench to Nicky Hopkins in Perivale Park Greenford Middlesex, near the entrance from Cowgate Road….it’s seat is a replica of a set of piano keys with a plaque recalling some of the musicians he played with and the records he played on …… an unsung musicians musician ………
The Stones peaked with Mick Taylor. The two axe combo of Keef and Taylor worked great together. They were never the same after he left. I've never felt that Ronnie Wood brought much to the table, other than being easygoing.
Not to be a stickler but it is Boogie With Stu. This, coming from a man named Stu, Stuart. LOL! Love the stones! From 1970 to 1975 was their peak of peaks! 3 of the best albums ever!
I'm am a big Zeppelin fan and Stones, I made comment late at night when I could not sleep, I was a little groggy and the next day I realized that I wrote the name of the song wrong, it has been a long time since I saw it written on the album I spelled boogie, and his name is Stu wrong, I actually think 68-77 I liked Some Girls, after that it was down hill.

The official press release was Brian wanted to go in a different musical direction. Mick and Keith told Brian he can announce why he's leaving the band, But yeah, they told him you're fired.
No mention of founding member Brian Knight. Perhaps it was too early to mention but he happened to be the greatest Blues slide player in Great Britain. 👍
You can't mention Lisa Fischer without mentioning Bernard Fowler. He also sang backup with the Stones for many, many years. He also sang in Charlie's jazz group.

Ian was a major factor in every thing
What about Billy Preston and Ollie Brown?
I saw the stones in 1975 when Billy and Ollie were with the band. Billy did two of his own songs during the Stones set.
I LOVED BILLY PRESTON AND THE FUNK HE BROUGHT WITH HIM TO THE BAND.
Billy Preston played piano with the Beatles on Get Back.
What albums is Billy P on with the Stones?
TC: As far as I know, Billy played on Exile, Goats Head Soup, It's Only Rock n' Roll, Black & Blue and Love You Live.
Ian Stewart didn't actually die. He want on the host the Jay Leno show! Get yer facts straight!
And now is doing an updated version of You Bet Your Life.
Charlie Watts is not an original member unfortunately. As you stated he joined in 1963 and took the place of Mick Avory (The Kinks Drummer) who left to form the Kinks. I think a lot of people assume Charlie was there from day 1 (as I once did).
I have the idea that Avory just did 1 or 2 gigs in the very early days... then came another drummer and finally came Mr. Charlie.
Rock On Charlie 😭🤘
Don’t forget Bobby keys
Rolling stones stripped now that's some fine listening to
