True! I only heard him answering an interview one or two times before and very briefly, this one is very interesting, I feel they seem to be some unite, as far as possible.. the rejection for him was apparently not so strong yet..
Nice to see the Stones natural in their early years. Keith seems rather shy. Mick self confident. Charlie laconic and gentle. Brian well educated. Bill mysterious and modest.
Unfortunate. Brian Jones formed this band, He named the group, chose the players, made the phone calls, got the gigs, signed the contracts. His playing was a major element of the band's unique sound. Mick and Keith treat his legacy like an annoyance, like they regret or despise he was ever instrumental to their musical formation. I can understand there were personal issues that created this rift, but at least give their founder his due. He was essential to the existence of The Stones.
If it wasnt for mick and Keith The stones would never make sucess, Brian was obsessed, He wants to control The bands style to be always a blues cover band, he couldnt write even one song and He was a pretty bastard too, treat The rest with arrogance, ruining their performances with his drug abuse. People are crazy saying that He was an Angel Just because He was fired and after a little time He died but He wasnt a good leader He wasnt a good team player at all. Just because mick is a business Man and really try to make The things work it doesn't mean He is a bastard He is just a good leader and visionary just like keith who wrote some of the best riffs and songs in music history. People had to stop hating The stones and idealizing a Brian Jones that is not real
Damn straight! He formed the band. He hired Jagger and Richards. He gave the band it's name. He was creative force behind all the early Stones records, especially Aftermath and beyond.
He,was the originator, the original Stone, and they carried on and built on the foundation he created. He's the ancestor Stone. He's up there with Charlie. RIP.
Jones was the most versatile musician from the 60s. He sounded great on whatever instrument he played and he was playing notes he had written. That makes him a virtuoso and yes he should have had a national house on strum street London and a fair day in his honor. Feb 28 RIP lewis Brian Hopkins jones
the most hilarious interview, love Brian Jones (what a loss, poor guy) it's hard to fight the tears everytime I see him, poor Brian we still love you!!!! But this interview you watching it you forget the fact that he's gone it makes you feel like he's here with us and that's a good thing. Greats!!!!
5:18 sums up Brian's role in the band for me, I believe he was mistreated by the other band members (I know it was only a bit of group banter) but for me Brian seemed too sensitive. The fact he said the others all laugh at him for having music education, it's no wonder why this guy used drugs to escape the fame etc. He would've been far better off if he'd left the band early and had a solo career or formed his own group. Brian was the most creative of the lot up to a certain point
+kfz -You're welcome.It was a '67 german film starring anita p.Brian played EVERY instrument, wrote the whole soundtrack;a brilliant job after that bitch nearly destroyed Brian
Brian Jones wasn't given the credit he deserved for his role in forming the Stones. He was pushed aside later on and I'm sure this lead to his worsening drug and alcohol abuse. I also like Charlie Watts and Bill Wyman. They are very quiet and reserved. They seem content in staying in the background and just enjoy what they're doing in their own way.
Interesting hearing the Stones in a relaxed atmosphere. Brian Jones was thoughtful and made a joke about “saving money for a rainy day”. It was interesting that he was shy about admitting to his formal musical education. This was a pretty honest interview with all five of them.
Reading almost all comments and I absolutely agree on the fact that Brian Jones was the brain and musically intelectual. The fundamental pillar of the band; and absolutely diplomatic on interviews. Unfortunately, due to his sensitive attitude, drugs were his scape form fame.
Brian deserves the credit he gets for setting up the band, & his contribution to the gr8 early music, but band members spend most of their time together, so if there is friction, it won't last. I'm just grateful for the gr8 music they put out with Brian in the band.
Great to see so much love for Brian here- Mick & Keith must hate all these old clips being resurrected, showing who had the real looks,class & talent......
agree! a shame they tried to erase all the footage of Brian's musicianship, and threatened to sue any film that portrayed the truth. I'm so glad others are smart enough to know and see the truth
brian was the leader and spoke up and then later years mick was the one who the press asked questions most too-=-these years here mick was in the back seat of the stones ride - and it is nice too see him back there
Fantastic band back then. Still going strong despite the sad loss of Brian Jones in 1969 & his replacement Mick Taylor leaving in 1974. We see Brian still very much in good health in 1965. Sadly, that changed soon after meeting Anita Pallenberg, a renowned groupie who was already a hard drug user. She became his girlfriend, later leaving him for Keith. It was Pallenberg who introduced Brian & Keith to hard drugs. Thankfully, Keith had a tough constitution & survived. Tragically for Brian, who reportedly could play at least 50 different instruments competently, hard drugs nearly destroyed him even before he left the Stones only to die in a highly suspicious drowning accident soon after. But a huge loss to music, that's for sure.
That woman ruined Brian's life , he wasn't on hard drugs until he met her . She was also very violent with him , I understand that she once broke Brian's ribs and a finger , but nonetheless , that is not discussed , only that Brian was violent towards her .
So Mick talks over Brian while he's talking about his musical abilities( which he didn't want to due to them taking the piss),basically tells him to shut up,then brazenly admits he cant play anything! Jealous of his looks,class,culture,talent & ability. Pfft! He was streets ahead of them.
Conor dunmore they sidelined Brian because they were jealous of him and they bullied him for an example they stole both his girlfriends and they didn’t show up to his funeral
I can see evidently how Brian was just a standout and the others were jealous of that. I have been in a band in my teens and I can assure that chemistry and rivalry exist.
But Mick and Keith created their own music and that ultimately made the Stones so big (+ Jagger's business talent and organization skills of course). Mick and Keith and the chemistry between them has been the driving creative force for the Stones. Also Charlie said something like this later if I remember correct. All the credit for Brian of course for being the key figure in the beginning of the band and playing many exotic instruments in the Stones' records. Brian was very gifted as a multi-instrumentalist but he wasn't a talented songwriter as Mick and Keith were. And Brian was also a very difficult person to get along with. I think he had some serious problems in his life in many different ways and he should have got some professional help. Mick felt very sorry for Brian when he felt that he couldn't help him in 1968 when Brian was in a very bad shape mentally and he coudn't function nearly at all in the studio sessions for Beggars Banquet. Keith on the other hand was furious for Brian for beating up Anita very badly in Marocco. All that led to the Brian's separation from the band. When Brien died Mick was devastated and he cried openly. He always had a closer relationship to Brian than others in the group. Brian could sometimes be a very charming person in the interviews as we can all see in this video and he spoke very beutiful english, but the truth behind the scenes is not so beatiful.
@@hannuhedman5882 100% agree. Brian much like John Lennon were absolutely not role models and Im sure you can add so many more to that list. These guys were living in a much different time in history nothing like today. I completely admire Brian for his contributions in music to the Rolling Stones specially Paint It Black, Under My Thumb, and Ruby Tuesday, even to this day 2021 there isn’t much multi instrumentalist like Brian. Sure Mick and Keith deserve to be hailed as one of the best songwriters but much like Lennon McCartney they owe so much to their people around them like George Harrison and George Martin, alone John and Paul couldn’t do it and they hv admited this time after time. Same with Mick n Keith they needed support. Keith even said Paint it Black was abiut to be dismissed until the other specially Brian contributed and brought the song to life.
awesome interview from the young stones. Charlie is so outgoing and confident here, appears he become more quiet over the years, before he quit doing interviews altogether, great hearing him engage with the interviewer, and also hearing how most of the band never played in another band and only picked up their instruments 3 years prior!
I don't believe there is even one RUclips video concerning the Rolling Stones between 1963-1969, that doesn't contain a hundred complaints about the mistreatment of Brian Jones. People act as if Brian came down from some holy mountain to bestow his genius on the others. For heaven's sake, he was a member of the band. He was EXPECTED to make contributions. And this band was never destined to play Elmore James and Jimmy Reed numbers forever, as Brian probably would have wanted. They were barely together a year when they started writing pop songs. Some of Brian's contributions were indeed terrific. But it's not someone else's fault that he became addicted and really wasn't much of a songwriter. By the time he was pushed out, he had already been "out" for a couple of years.
yes, its pretty obvious because of the success they had and the fact that theyre still going that they didnt really need Brians contribution to make it as a band!! hes been gone a long time and its tragic, but they were barely a band at all for all that long before he died , the Stones are the Stones because of what they did over 40 odd years and not because Brian made them what they are...thats ludicrous.
Thank you for this upload! Brian appears to have been the most eloquent and well spoken of the band. I was just a baby in their heyday but I wish I'd been old enough to have seen them in concert when Brian was alive (RIP). I think that's when they were at their very best. I did get to see them as a teenager in the early 1980s. Ron Wood was in the band by then. They were awesome but judging from footage they were on a whole other level with Jones as well as Mick Taylor later on. Jmo.
Same. At this point, I realise I was never a fan of Rolling Stones music. Mainly just Brians beautiful input that made their top tunes as good as they were. Sadly, a lot of people do watch Rolling Stones for 'the moves like Jagger' which is basically a stupid skinny posh twat prancing around for attention singing with an artificial American twang.
Same, I never really was a huge fan of Rolling stones, before I discovered Brian Jones. He's basically representing whole diffrent level than rest of the group, I mean he was not only brilliant musician, but he was also a man of a class. To bad best people die to soon...
It's a great interview. When asked what instruments they played it's kind of funny to hear Brian already list four. Ask him 2 or 3 years later and he'd be saying just about any.
I've been a Rolling Stones fan since I was a kid back in the 1960's and will be until the day I die. They all look like they barely rolled out of bed after being out all night partying, Bill hiding his bloodshot eyes behind sunglass's ! Love It ! THEY JUST WOLK UP !!!!!!! LOL !!!!!!!!!
It's amazing that Andrew Oldham went along with such a Beatle like conferance. Thankfully he did, this must be the only such Stones'gathering in existence,and as such it offers a priceless look into their inner workings ,at the time.
Covert bullying under the guise of having a friendly piss-take, can drive people to the point of despair when it's unrelenting, and when you're tied to your abusers. Mick and Keith bullied Brian. Plenty of documentation to prove this.
Yes, this is something a lot of people can never see unless they were provided with concrete facts. It is a 'skill' that British culture has embedded into English people. Subtle passive aggressive comments and bullying masked as 'banter'. It is very obvious from lots of interviews that Mick Jagger was a slimey bully who used Keith in his quest to undermine Brian. Once Brian was out of the picture, Mick would set his sights on someone else and continue to do so. Sadly, if this was better documented, Mick would never be as popular as he is now. Unfortunately, he is most lauded and praised for prancing around on stage like a stupid middle class posh boy singing with a fake American twang.
@@Ophiuchus123456789 thank you for seeing the truth, Pat Andrews as well to this day trying to set the record straight for Brian. They've defamed a dead man for decades out of envy, bastards
According to Wyman's book Stone Alone, Andrew Loog Oldham pushed Mick and Keith to write and exclude Brian. The three shared a flat and split the band. Wyman and Charlie had wives and a home life.
❤👍 THERE WAS THE GOOD TIMES WITH STONES. I'VE BEEN A ROLLING STONES FAN FOR MANY YEARS. CHARISMATIC SINGERS.AMAZING TALENTED,LEGENDARY. MY FAVORITE SINGER IS BRIAN JONES. GREETINGS FROM BULGARIA 🇧🇬
This is really fantastic,thank you so much for posting this interview!! I love how everybody is laughing and making fun of the others,but I love even more how everybody is self-deprecating and auto- ironic!! At this point of their history they were such a strong band..of course there were competitive feelings between Brian and the Glimmer Twins,but this fact lead to great albums like Aftermath,where Brian completed the gorgeous songs written by Mick and Keith by adding incredibly beautiful instrumental parts,on the guitar,harmonica,dulcimer,harpsichord,marimbas..!!! I read that Brian graduated in classical clarinet,playing the first clarinet concerto by Carl Maria von Weber...I am a classical musician myself,and I can tell you that this concerto requires a very skilled and virtuoso player!!! After reading that,it didn't surprise me anymore that Brian played all the brass and woodwind parts himself,in complex records like "Their Satanic..". But it was a great surprise to me to know that he,the original bluesman,played those avantguard mellotron parts in songs like "We love you" and "2.000 light years from home". This is pure genius,in my opinion,he created a very unique progressive rock soundscape, already in 1967! He didn't write the songs,that's right,but he invented the most colourful sounds and orchestratios to dress 'em up,so to speak. In the years 1966-67 he had more or less the same role of George Martin in the Beatles...and after this came the decline,the loss of Anita,the heavy drugs. So incredibly sad...but the glorious albums from that era(including the less famous one, "Between the buttons" )are still a precious gift from the Stones,something to treasure forever!!!!
I wonder if they ever watch old interviews like this from time to time and say.......dam, I was just a kid here, wtf! these guys grew up in front of the camera
The Stones, at the very beginning! Whatever went down, I think Brian would look down & been very proud the band went on for so many decades, & became so legendary, it was beyond what any of them expected.
+moroniiiiiiiii You can see why he was seen as the leader of the band, he was the most articulate in interviews, the others seem to don't know what to say or don't care that much.
BRIAN!! FULL OF ZEST AND CLASS, SHOWS IN HIS SPEECH, WISE DANDELION, HIS IMPECCABLE STYLE OF FASHION, HIS POETRY, IN EVERY INSTRUMENT HE TOUCHES, A SONG I DEDICATE TO YOU, "EVERYTHING THAT TOUCHES YOU"🌿🎶THE ASSOCIATION🌝
Brian emerges from this as the most eloquent and the most pleasant of the Stones to interview. Keith's body language, and the look he gives Brian at one point (where Brian more or less cuts in to interrupt him) show me that he is not well disposed to Brian, leaning more to Mick - literally too.
Brian was bullied from day one. His energy, charisma, looks and talent burned everyone in the heart and ultimately was too much. Brian was no angel, he was also a kid. He wasn't given time to straighten out. The band had two junkies in it, but Brians use got him thrown out of a band he started. Keith went on for thirty years being a junkie slob and heralded for it, but Brian was executed for it. Brian was murdered by his pool man who was also jealous of Brian. No one cared. Their tribute to him at Hyde Park seemed forced and almost of no importance to the band. Micks "poem" made zero sense probably grabbing it a minute before he hit the stage. Keith pissed on his corpse so many times its ludicrous, RIP Brian.
I don't find the tribute concert to have been forced at all, it was well done. So was the Shine A Light tribute song. Maybe the two of them aren't the most sensitive types, but that doesn't mean they didn't care.
Total rubbish. Charlie said Mick was upset and was crying!. Keith was expecting it, yet was still very shocked. Its a bunch of male egos. Just cause you have your issues, doesnt mean you want someone dead.
The Rolling Stones were better when Brian was in the group. Though he did not write, he was a great musician, very versatile, relaxed and confident. Watch him on "Ruby Tuesday".
The Rolling Stones band history is fking dark, damn shame dude. I love this band but now I wish I didn't know how they were formed.. how the founder had died by "misadventure".. Till now I thought The Beatles breakup was dark. Lol
damn, Mick and Keith ride the shit outta Brian in this interview. i know its pretty common at that age but I can see how that would get really fucking old for some people
The others laughed at his musical education as a lady just said. Hey dudes he was your band leader, he was a super nerd. And he should have been protected .
Brian was the most articulate of the Stones back then - and such a versatile musician. Contrary to the River Rat image Andrew Oldham created, they grew up Middle Class.
they destroyed him out of envy, they wanted the fame and $$, Brian was a sensitive soul that truly loved the blues, they ganged up on him, the police busts, Anita backstabbing and mindfcking him, his health was fragile since childhood, heartbreakign really..Pat Andrews defends his memory to this day and Paul Trynka's book tells much of the truth that Mick and Keith tried to obliterate, truly evil people
Brian was always the best one to interview for the band. He was very diplomatic and easy to talk to.
+Shawn Powell And Charly the most annoyed one
True! I only heard him answering an interview one or two times before and very briefly, this one is very interesting, I feel they seem to be some unite, as far as possible.. the rejection for him was apparently not so strong yet..
shut up shawn
Brian WAS the Stones
José Aquino No, just aloof.
Brian had a wonderful smile.
and soul, he was the only once with a soul and love for the blues, not the fame and $$$
Jones had a lovely voice and seems far more worldly than the others. How he got mixed up with the others is a real mystery.
Brian is so lovely ! I love his voice, I could listen to him for hours and hours :o
HELT ENIG !!! I agree !!
Ellynn Styles same
Yes me too
Same
Brian sounds very posh and more educated compared with the others...
mark caine - He was
The rest of Jones mates were a scruffy lot. Brian is the only one with musical vision at this point. Jagger had severe inferiority issues.
They all sound posh but Brian sounds most well spoken, not that the others aren't well spoken but he is clearly the most well spoken.
mark caine He had better schooling so yea
well mick went to a grammar school so i'd say he's pretty well educated too
Nice to see the Stones natural in their early years. Keith seems rather shy. Mick self confident. Charlie laconic and gentle. Brian well educated. Bill mysterious and modest.
Brian comes off as very intelligent... speaks well.
Brian Jones looks so classy , good looking , and a intellect !!! Sexy classy Brian Jones .
i could listen to brian jones talk all day
didn't realize those kids were speaking another language until about 3 clips in. i kept turning the audio up thinking i just couldn't hear properly 😅
Me too 😂😊

YES you are correct if there was no Brian there would be no rolling stones that is an undeniable fact.

2:16 gah....she's so beautiful. Crazy to think she's almost 70 now....
Bill looks like he could be in The Rammones
Thank you for this upload! Brian appears to have been the most eloquent and well spoken of the band. I was just a baby in their heyday but I wish I'd been old enough to have seen them in concert when Brian was alive (RIP). I think that's when they were at their very best. I did get to see them as a teenager in the early 1980s. Ron Wood was in the band by then. They were awesome but judging from footage they were on a whole other level with Jones as well as Mick Taylor later on. Jmo.
Brian was light years ahead of them all, all who saw them and met him know the truth
The more I know about the Rolling Stones, the less I like Mick and Keith
Same. At this point, I realise I was never a fan of Rolling Stones music. Mainly just Brians beautiful input that made their top tunes as good as they were.
Sadly, a lot of people do watch Rolling Stones for 'the moves like Jagger' which is basically a stupid skinny posh twat prancing around for attention singing with an artificial American twang.
@@Ophiuchus123456789 You’re absolutely right. I was never a big Rolling Stones fan and today I know why. It’s because the only one I like is missing.
Same, I never really was a huge fan of Rolling stones, before I discovered Brian Jones. He's basically representing whole diffrent level than rest of the group, I mean he was not only brilliant musician, but he was also a man of a class. To bad best people die to soon...
you are one of the insightful ones
Mick and Keith are the stones
What a precious document!!! they seemed still rather unite.. regarding was to come..
Omg they were so fucking hot in those days.
It's a great interview. When asked what instruments they played it's kind of funny to hear Brian already list four. Ask him 2 or 3 years later and he'd be saying just about any.
I've been a Rolling Stones fan since I was a kid back in the 1960's and will be until the day I die. They all look like they barely rolled out of bed after being out all night partying, Bill hiding his bloodshot eyes behind sunglass's ! Love It !
THEY JUST WOLK UP !!!!!!! LOL !!!!!!!!!
bill wyman remains the coolest person in rock n roll history
Bill what about Keith? or Brian? or Jim morrison? or hendrix? come on
I second it !
Revolver Dirty mouth , clean it up !
Sorry, but imo & sort of historically when it comes to The Stones Brian was the coolest cat in that room at that time. 😆
@@Ophiuchus123456789 so is Jimmy Page but we still love them as musicians
I love how sweet, quiet, calm and articulate they were.
Brian and Charlie... now together again at last
It's amazing that Andrew Oldham went along with such a Beatle like conferance.
Thankfully he did, this must be the only such Stones'gathering in existence,and as such it offers a priceless look into their inner workings ,at the time.
Covert bullying under the guise of having a friendly piss-take, can drive people to the point of despair when it's unrelenting, and when you're tied to your abusers. Mick and Keith bullied Brian. Plenty of documentation to prove this.
Yes, this is something a lot of people can never see unless they were provided with concrete facts. It is a 'skill' that British culture has embedded into English people. Subtle passive aggressive comments and bullying masked as 'banter'. It is very obvious from lots of interviews that Mick Jagger was a slimey bully who used Keith in his quest to undermine Brian. Once Brian was out of the picture, Mick would set his sights on someone else and continue to do so.
Sadly, if this was better documented, Mick would never be as popular as he is now. Unfortunately, he is most lauded and praised for prancing around on stage like a stupid middle class posh boy singing with a fake American twang.
@@Ophiuchus123456789 thank you for seeing the truth, Pat Andrews as well to this day trying to set the record straight for Brian. They've defamed a dead man for decades out of envy, bastards
@@Ophiuchus123456789 Spot on.
@@voizes325 You almost have to be if you're going to rise to that level of fame/success.
According to Wyman's book Stone Alone, Andrew Loog Oldham pushed Mick and Keith to write and exclude Brian. The three shared a flat and split the band. Wyman and Charlie had wives and a home life.
Charlie eating an apple is just too damn epic.
❤👍
THERE WAS THE GOOD TIMES WITH STONES. I'VE BEEN A ROLLING STONES FAN FOR MANY YEARS. CHARISMATIC SINGERS.AMAZING TALENTED,LEGENDARY. MY FAVORITE SINGER IS BRIAN JONES.
GREETINGS FROM BULGARIA 🇧🇬
I love Charlie, he never gives a fuck and says the funniest things
This is really fantastic,thank you so much for posting this interview!! I love how everybody is laughing and making fun of the others,but I love even more how everybody is self-deprecating and auto- ironic!! At this point of their history they were such a strong band..of course there were competitive feelings between Brian and the Glimmer Twins,but this fact lead to great albums like Aftermath,where Brian completed the gorgeous songs written by Mick and Keith by adding incredibly beautiful instrumental parts,on the guitar,harmonica,dulcimer,harpsichord,marimbas..!!!
I read that Brian graduated in classical clarinet,playing the first clarinet concerto by Carl Maria von Weber...I am a classical musician myself,and I can tell you that this concerto requires a very skilled and virtuoso player!!! After reading that,it didn't surprise me anymore that Brian played all the brass and woodwind parts himself,in complex records like "Their Satanic..". But it was a great surprise to me to know that he,the original bluesman,played those avantguard mellotron parts in songs like "We love you" and "2.000 light years from home". This is pure genius,in my opinion,he created a very unique progressive rock soundscape, already in 1967! He didn't write the songs,that's right,but he invented the most colourful sounds and orchestratios to dress 'em up,so to speak. In the years 1966-67 he had more or less the same role of George Martin in the Beatles...and after this came the decline,the loss of Anita,the heavy drugs. So incredibly sad...but the glorious albums from that era(including the less famous one, "Between the buttons" )are still a precious gift from the Stones,something to treasure forever!!!!
I loved him also❤️❤️❤️
Jones = Stones
Sara Strand great comment x
the truth
I wonder if they ever watch old interviews like this from time to time and say.......dam, I was just a kid here, wtf! these guys grew up in front of the camera
these girls have great hair, and they seem like such nice people.
Middle class Jagger & Richards acting the bovver boys , one year later they adopted Brian's thoughtful mannerisms.
Brian is so articulate!
The Stones, at the very beginning! Whatever went down, I think Brian would look down & been very proud the band went on for so many decades, & became so legendary, it was beyond what any of them expected.
young Charlie eating an apple is probably the cutest thing ever
Brian Jones appears to be the only Rolling Stone that isn't dull, obtuse and stupid.
DesertScorpionKSA Mick Jagger dull?
Sam Green, absolutely.
DesertScorpionKSA you are so right mate just right 😏
DesertScorpionKSA You are so right !
DesertScorpionKSA Bill Wyman?
At this time, Brian was a giant on the scene, Mick and Keith , were below , that's a fact .
+moroniiiiiiiii You can see why he was seen as the leader of the band, he was the most articulate in interviews, the others seem to don't know what to say or don't care that much.
José Aquino I agree , besides being the most articulate , was the most talented musician . It was a shame the degradation of Brian over the years.
moroniiiiiiiii that's just like your opinion man .Brian who ???they always better WITHOUT him
moroniiiiiiiii sorry no deal ...Mick Taylor was much better
@@charlessteenburgen
Charles your are a moron.
BRIAN!! FULL OF ZEST AND CLASS, SHOWS IN HIS SPEECH, WISE DANDELION, HIS IMPECCABLE STYLE OF FASHION, HIS POETRY, IN EVERY INSTRUMENT HE TOUCHES, A SONG I DEDICATE TO YOU, "EVERYTHING THAT TOUCHES YOU"🌿🎶THE ASSOCIATION🌝
6:03 If Brian said 'shut up' to me like that, how could I ever be offended ❤
This is the stones showing you a small glimpse into who they are and it's quite interesting and fascinating 🎉🎉
Brian emerges from this as the most eloquent and the most pleasant of the Stones to interview. Keith's body language, and the look he gives Brian at one point (where Brian more or less cuts in to interrupt him) show me that he is not well disposed to Brian, leaning more to Mick - literally too.
Back when an apple was actually regarded as a snack.
Brian was bullied from day one. His energy, charisma, looks and talent burned everyone in the heart and ultimately was too much. Brian was no angel, he was also a kid. He wasn't given time to straighten out. The band had two junkies in it, but Brians use got him thrown out of a band he started. Keith went on for thirty years being a junkie slob and heralded for it, but Brian was executed for it. Brian was murdered by his pool man who was also jealous of Brian. No one cared. Their tribute to him at Hyde Park seemed forced and almost of no importance to the band. Micks "poem" made zero sense probably grabbing it a minute before he hit the stage. Keith pissed on his corpse so many times its ludicrous, RIP Brian.
Here here, couldn't have put that better myself!
It came down to Brian being absuive towards Anita.
I don't find the tribute concert to have been forced at all, it was well done. So was the Shine A Light tribute song. Maybe the two of them aren't the most sensitive types, but that doesn't mean they didn't care.
Total rubbish. Charlie said Mick was upset and was crying!. Keith was expecting it, yet was still very shocked. Its a bunch of male egos. Just cause you have your issues, doesnt mean you want someone dead.
The Rolling Stones were better when Brian was in the group. Though he did not write, he was a great musician, very versatile, relaxed and confident. Watch him on "Ruby Tuesday".
please never ever delete this video !
Hard to fathom this was > 50 years ago and they just played Dublin last night
Girls in the start are very beautiful, caught my eye though I adore all of the Stones.
Brian owned the interview
The Rolling Stones band history is fking dark, damn shame dude. I love this band but now I wish I didn't know how they were formed.. how the founder had died by "misadventure".. Till now I thought The Beatles breakup was dark. Lol
Great watching Charlie eat an apple and doesn’t seem to care what’s going on. Cool dude. 😎
Thats not cool hahaha, why everything a person do is cool? He is just eating
Crazy when ya think Keith Richards just started learning to play guitar a year or 2 before they recorded their 1st record. Ah, the good ole days.
Charlie has inspired me.
I'm eating an apple.
damn, Mick and Keith ride the shit outta Brian in this interview. i know its pretty common at that age but I can see how that would get really fucking old for some people
The others laughed at his musical education as a lady just said. Hey dudes he was your band leader, he was a super nerd. And he should have been protected .
I play bass...... guitar
Priceless!)))))))))))))))))))))))))
God, the girls are so wonderful and beautiful without no makeup..Robert at 67. Brian Jones was ahead of the curve here..
Brian Jones Is The Rolling Stones After Brian Died
There Were No More Rolling Stones
Brian was the most articulate of the Stones back then - and such a versatile musician. Contrary to the River Rat image Andrew Oldham created, they grew up Middle Class.
why didjn't they just give Brian Jones a leave of absence instead of firing him? Keith went thru a terrible spell too, but nobody wanted to fire him
Because Brian lost interest. At least, that's how Keith tells it.
bigman25plus25 - 50 years of spin by Keith. They treated Brian like shit. Nasty.
they destroyed him out of envy, they wanted the fame and $$, Brian was a sensitive soul that truly loved the blues, they ganged up on him, the police busts, Anita backstabbing and mindfcking him, his health was fragile since childhood, heartbreakign really..Pat Andrews defends his memory to this day and Paul Trynka's book tells much of the truth that Mick and Keith tried to obliterate, truly evil people
They wanted to tour and Jones was banned from the USA for drug convictions.
@@mitchflorida That was the excuse they used, seems like they just wanted him out of the group so they booted him
