@INUIT3333 “Women haircut”? Call it what you want. Others followed that look.
Yes, Mick and Keith wrote the songs and Brian had the ability to make those songs memorable with his addings. That’s what he is (or should)be remembered for. Brian also formed the band and namned them. He worked his arse off to get somewhere with the band and Keith thank him today by trashing him.
Keith became the soul in the late 60′s. Brian was the original one. The bad ass Keith wanted to be but was too shy for.

@atticthoughts
Who was the guy with the women-haircut? Who wrote the songs=Mick und KEITH! And one of my favorites, Champaign and reefer,
from Muddy Waters, for example All time, when the Stones making BLACK MUSIC, they are best……………..WHAT CAME FROM BRIAN? WHAT?
What the “Specialists” write here, are only the same sentences from K.Richards new book “LIVE”.
A good book, of course, but I am almost 62, and I follow the Stones over decades…..
For me, Keith is the soul of the R.S.

@Motownisyourtown You talk about 1968 and I talk about 1964. Keith never goes into details and only blame Jones for what happend. He knows that isn’t true. Jones was a fuck up but it wasn’t only his fault that it went downhill in 1968. By then he wanted out. Brian was all about music and dispised the Satanic album hard. He was happy to return to the roots but not in a band who he felt hated him and ignoring him in the studio. The Stones wanted him out because of his personal and legal problems.

@Taarok Somewhat true. But he was the leader back in 63-64. Nobody worked harder than him back then to promote them and do the dirty work. He made it happend in the beginning. Mick and Keith didn’t join that train until Oldham turned them into song writers and tried to turn Brian into a session man.

@INUIT3333 Nah, no asshole than anybody else back then.

@niggaT42000 he was the MAN
Comment by MrCeej9999 on 11 January 2011:
Mick and Keef always resented Jones a bit, as he was really the visonairy for their sound.
You know, Mick and Keith really weren’t into the whole R+B/Blues scene until they met him.
And they took the band to a pretty lousy “psych rock” era for years. Ironically, it was only when Jones died that they went back to their R+B routes and had a lot fo their bigger hits
Comment by Taarok on 11 January 2011:
brian has become too much of a god because of his death. brian was a extremely talented musician, no doubt about it, but saying he was the leader of stones is complete bollocks. he might have wanted it to look that way but he wasnt. keith and mick wrote the songs, they got it all together and they took responsibility for the band. brian was very irresponsible and pretty much a fuck-up. however, he was essential to their sound and to forming of the band. but ian stewart was also very important

WHILE THE STONES WERE IN THE STUDIO, BRIAN WAS GETTING WASTED SOMEWHERE, SOUNDS LIKE A ‘ROLLING STONE’ TO ME

Brian was an asshole!
Comment by Paulvon128 on 11 January 2011:
@gio73vanna that is true. Poor Brian is another famous member of The 27 Club
Comment by Motownisyourtown on 11 January 2011:
@atticthoughts Keith did mention that, he says that it was mainly because Brian never turned up for practice and when he did he was a bit childish,, unfortunately the whole band seemed to agree with that. Anita Pallenberg agrees with it. The fact Phil Spector ended up playing on Let it Bleed is evidence of that. He just wouldn’t turn up so they resented him. Plus, they were all about the music. They just chose to move forward into stuff like Exile and Let it Bleed and Brian didn’t want that.
Comment by atticthoughts on 11 January 2011:
@kittenlyric BINGO! That’s one reason why Keith is bitter and haunted by Brian today and tries to destroy him. He feels guilty. Keith and Brian were friends back then. Look at pictures FFS. The story about bad and horrible Brian doesn’t fit when you turn the Stones (no pun intended). He was an ass at times – yes. He did heavy amounts of drugs and they tend to do that to some people – especially those who have psychological issues like Brian. Don’t base your view of Brian just by reading “Life”!
Comment by atticthoughts on 11 January 2011:
@Motownisyourtown Keith’s full of crap – so who cares? Brian WAS the leader back then because he worked his arse of for the band while the others still wondered if they should gp for the music or not.. Brian even gave them the name and was selected as the one who should tell Stu he wasn’t hansom enough to be in the band.
When the others (read M&K) found out Brian had been getting slightly bigger slice of the income they became mad and started to bully him. Keith never mention that.

@daviejtube95 yeah, like they are going to tell the truth and look like @#$%. They left him sick and in the hospital and had it off in his limo…great bunch of people. Wish you a girlfriend and a friend just like them since they were so great
Comment by kittenlyric on 11 January 2011:
@cactaceous Yeah believe that bull#@%$ that the Stones put out, Brian wrote a lot and even scored a whole film, thank you very much!!!
Comment by kittenlyric on 11 January 2011:
Look at the REAL story….Misadventure, yeah right, Brian had the equivalent of a glass of wine and therapeutic amounts of antidepressant in his system. Also, what happened to all of Brian’s things from Cotchford Farm?..well there is that pic of Keith and Anita (holding Marlon) and Brian’s tapestry hanging behind them…hmm…What about the recordings Brian was doing when he died?…Oh yeah, those and his clothes was found in a burn pile in the back a couple of days after he died…Who did it?
Comment by Motownisyourtown on 11 January 2011:
@thepittsrnr yea that’s why i said keith would disagree with this
Comment by thepittsrnr on 12 January 2011:
@Motownisyourtown it says exactly that in keiths book ‘life’
Comment by sergiosaukka on 12 January 2011:
Who has him killed? that’s a question…or suicide?vhmmmmmm….semms like with drugs and so on
Comment by simolui on 12 January 2011:
Brian= THE STONES
Comment by Motownisyourtown on 12 January 2011:
Keith would disagree with this, Brian appointed himself leader and it didn’t take long before they got pissed with that. Keith had a pirates attitude. All on the table, split even, pieces of eight, while Brian thought he could convince people he was in charge.
Brian was so lost in a hole and couldn’t even see it.
Comment by escole48 on 12 January 2011:
I remember my parents commenting on his death when I was a kid. They were, sadley, not complimentry. Hard to believe it was over 40 years ago and he would be 68 now. I wonder what he would have gone on to do, if he would have lived and sorted himself out.
Anita Pallenberg is often wrongly blamed for Brian and Keith Richards down times, but I think they must all take the responsability for their own actions and sadley Brian Jones payed with his life. It could have been Kieth or Anita.

@theAceMod1979 Maybe he had his reasons.He is not around to defend himself.
