Does anyone remember Ian Stewart? -_- I really wish you'd quit arguing about Mick, Keith, and Brian as if you know them so well.

Wow. Sir Mick Jagger trying to rewrite history. For a different opinion for someone who was there read Bill Wyman's book "STONE ALONE" and it puts into question Sir Mick Jagger 's attempt at rewriting history. Ironically, this history of the band was brushed over on the Larry King LIVE interiview as well.  Bill Wyman doesn't have any axe to grind and is more forthcoming with the truth. Thank You to Bill Wyman for writing "STONE ALONE".

@barneez1 He wasn't a "psycho" he was a drug addict because of his self medicating that he did to try and cope with his depression as a result of Richards/Jagger constantly picking on him and bullying him. He had self esteem issues before and they just crushed him. Nothing against Richars/Jagger, I love them both to death! Just how it happened.. And Brian did form the band and dealt with everything and was definitely the leader despite what Micky says.

@bustballz your talkin out of your ass. do a little research and you'll learn that brian jones was a psycho and basically was useless in the band after a certain point

[bustballz]

Brian invented the Stones. He alone. He was a genius of epic proportions but they were all jealous of his talent and his good looks, Especially that;FAG jagger. He was kicked OUT OF HIS OWN BAND! Those mother;fuckers, jagger and fuckhead richards.

[TheScottrocks9]

Well Brian did do one thing for them that they probably would have never come up with for themselves. It was just perfect for their style and image and has carried them to this day. The name - the Rolling stones- is just perfect for a band of musicians of this ilk.

Purtroppo Brian si è autoescluso dalla band, tutto il resto è venuto di conseguenza.

Come musicista sicuramente Brian ha dato un grande contributo !

[MrCodyMcG]

Fuck Mick Jagger

[Chuckii666]

fuck up all your haters , Brian gave the unic sound to the rolling stones,he was special ?yes he was ,look the diversity of the musics of his era, a great ideia dont need to be all hard and have good techiniques , if they are simple and great , its right , he did a lot of shit with his life , but cmon everybody wrongs sometimes , and the brian's mess fucked him , the other stones tooked him away and didnt helped him , he needed love , keith and mick should give more respect to him

@Galericulus

Brian Jones was a reasonably talented musician who turned into a junkie egomaniac starfucker who stopped showing up for practice and then gigs.  What were the rest of the Stones to do? Get rid of him, as they did. When Keith friggin Richards has a problem with your excesses...you know you're fucked up.

[atticthoughts]

@45arther It's no myth. He did what he did and was an important member of the band in the 60's. Brian started it and gave them the name. He promoted them, was their spokes person and made them known early on. Soundwise he made them stand out. Even though you prefer what they did later it's a fact that without Brian and the 60's catalogue there wouldn't have been a 70's catalogue with the Stones. For me it has nothing to do with him dying young.
