I knew Jimmy Miller and he told me some cool stories about the Stones. One interesting thing was Brian asked Jimmy to produce a solo album after he left the Stones. He said they were worried about Brian once he left the band and thought doing a solo album was a good thing. I asked Jimmy what type of songs Brian was going to do. He said it was all blues stuff like Little Red Rooster. Jimmy said he met Brian twice about recording the solo album but he was kind of scattered and didnt have any finished songs. Jimmy told me the story of how he came to work with the Stones on BB too. Really cool to hear him tell it.
@dongo3636 No I never asked about Johnny's sessions. I always had a million things I wanted to ask him but never got much past the Stones. He did jump on the drum kit and play Happy and Can't Always Get What You Want-a bit of each for us. Charlie couldn't get You Can't Always etc so he suggested Jimmy just doing it. On Happy Charlie wasn't there so Jimmy played drums. They liked the take so much they kept it. Jimmy also picked up a cowbell and did the beginning of Honky Tonk Women for us! He played it of course on the recording. Kinda cool. We were just hanging out talking. He was really nice. I asked him what Brian Jones was really like. Troubled and a guy they didn't trust as far as girlfriends and he was a klepto even when they'd become successful.
They're incomparable. Which is why I don't get how there could be a legitimate "Beatles vs Stones" argument. It's like comparing Mozart to Bach. They both play classical, sure, but if you have any kind of intelligence or musical ability - you'll realize that they're ALSO incomparable. Long live both bands and their legacies.
Born in 76, so a bit late to the party. But my mom listened to them and as a child, seeing the cover of satanic majesty's request, it was all over, I was a stones fan for life. My first concert was steel wheels at alpine valley, WI. I was 12 years old and it blew me away. I've been to every tour since then, except for the last one, as ive retired from going to concerts :( Beggars and Exile are my favorites. Used to play them at big parties I hosted, everyone loved it. Anyway, great documentary and keep them coming!!!
@ECNIV2000 Nice! I was in middle school and went with friend and his mom. Now, when voodoo lounge came out at Camp Randall, it was the summer of my senior year. Went with two friends, got a hotel so we could drink and get smoked out. But the best concert was at Summerfest here, I worked merch as a side gig. Had all access pass. I went to the front row and stood next to a security guard.
In my opinion the album Beggars Banquet was the greatest album that The Rolling Stones ever made without a shadow of a doubt, I loved it from start to finish especially the great song Jigsaw Puzzle.
For Performance, only the exterior scenes were shot at Powis Square in Notting Hill Gate. The interior scenes were shot at another location in west London.
Oh ffs, give me a break. Is this the new way for losers to project their own cool? Building yourself up by tearing others down is certainly, generally speaking, nothing new. But it seems sudden to me that the top rock musicians of the 60s and 70s are being put through this now. It started a while ago with Led Zeppelin. It's understandable although IMO highly arguable that their first two albums would be fuel for those inclined to dislike the band first, and go looking for excuses later. They did then create another six studio albums of frequently startlingly original music. But this isn't about Led Zeppelin. This time it's the Stones. Sure, they're wearing their influences on their sleeves here. But that's how music goes. It's virtually never created in a a vacuum. If I knew classical music, I'm quite sure that I could then trace the development of various ideas from their roots - which in many cases were actually folk songs, believe it or not - through to their full fruition. So what, specifically, of other people's ideas are Mick and Keith taking credit for here? Please. This is news to me. Please educate us, oh erudite one. Just in case you don't bother to respond, because you really can't, or you do respond but with a lot of nonsense - you don't have to like them. But please stop spreading ignorance to impressionable youth. Surely you can find a way to become fashionable that's built on your own achievements, rather than envy of your betters.
I love the Stones along with Led Zeppelin but for some reasons the Stones get a pass for stealing ideas while eveyone acts appalled about Zeppelin stealing ideas. It was wrong for both bands to do it but it's curious why one band gets a pass while the other does not .
More stones docs please I like how u talk about each song on the album Great research Would love to watch a video of yours on Exile on Main Street Cheers!
I was listening to this record as a mere child at a time in my life when the brain is still growing and sorting things out. I thank God it was this album.
Cool documentary, I always enjoy and look forward to your videos. Just one thing - "Performance" was co-directed by Donald Cammell and the great Nicolas Roeg who is not mentioned in this video. A highly gifted cinematographer, Nicolas Roeg also did the cinematography for "Performance", making him responsible for the great look of the film. He would later direct "Walkabout", "Don't Look Now" and "The Man Who Fell to Earth" starring David Bowie.
longtime fan of your docs, I share them with my friends etc. This is first time I want to share suggestion. Change up the backing music throughout the video. This will further emphasize changes in the storyline. The same music looping can be a distraction. and I understand youre using copyright free music, Carry On, er I mean Rock on!
I watched this documentary Thursday morning a few hours after it was posted. I've seen quite a few TH-cam documentaries on this album by now. There is a very detailed one on just the making of Jumping Jack Flash and a very detailed three part one on Beggar's Banquet, both by "FlipsideCT". He has got hold of the extremely detailed Olympic recording sessions that date precisely what they were recording on each day. The answers to many questions in your documentary can be found there. I myself can add a bit of detail about Brian Jones's session with Jimi Hendrix on All along the Watch Tower around January 21st 1968. Because by chance at the same time I was looking into the recording sessions of Barry Grey for the theme to the 1968 Gerry Anderson children's TV Series "Joe 90" at Olympic which was being recorded at the same time and so just prior to the begging of the Stones sessions. The guitarist with Grey was for Vic Flick. I hope my memory is correct as it was years ago but i got it from a Joe 90 web site, or link to the whole Olympic log of all the sessions now on line somewhere. On Wikipedia its dated as from 18th January 1968. Have a listen to that theme it's great. It seems only Jarvis Cocker of Pulp recognises the brilliance and influence of Gray's work. He has done very music orientated TH-cam documentaries about it. So I don't expect to learn new stuff about Beggar's Banquet now, but there's a lot of new stuff here and some great photos I haven't seen before. Anyway after watching this Thursday morning I went to my folks and i went for a walk with my mum, and we talked about her memories of this era in the 1960's. She was a Swing band and Rock and Roll fan in the 1950's and they had me in the early 1960's so she was not a sixties teen, but she talked a lot about Marianne Faithfull and the hassle they all got from the authorities. Then later she told me that Marianne Faithfull had sadly passed away. I brought every copy of the major Newspapers the next day and all of them had run interesting articles about her. They all only go so far as to describe her as the Rolling Stones and/or Mick Jagger's muse. Both me and my mum thought she was English Aristocrat, but she was a descendent of Austrian nobility but grew up in a terrace house in Reading according to the Guardian article (Ben Beaumont-Thomas Friday 31 January 2025). Now I'm no Guardian reader and became disillusioned with the direction of feminism in the 2000's, but the article does detail how she co wrote many of the Stones greatest songs. Much more than just a muse then really. As you point out, one of their greatest songs Sympathy for the Devil, would have never been written except for her giving Mick Jagger the book "The Master and the Margareta". Now I'm a bit of a historian so this country would not be what it is were it not for Queen Elizabeth I and Queen Elizabeth II, that I'm sure of, but i remain unconvinced that Einstein's' wife actually thought up the Theory of Relativity. But it begs the question: what if Mick Jagger had never met Marianne Faithfull? I can imagine a counterfactual history where they never met and maybe instead of watching them playing to over a million people on Copacabana Beach on TH-cam I'd just see them at my local club as some forgotten 60's one hit wonder band? You know like "They did that song "Satisfaction" or something in the early 1960's i think. Brock up, became accountants, roofers and Byzantine art Historians, then retired and did a 60 year reunion tour of pubs at £3 a ticket. You did a good job restoring the silent clip of the 1968 NME concert. I have that brilliant picture of them looking out from the Olympic control room in a book. It's one of my very favourite of all the millions of photos of them. Thank you for the documentary. Marianne Faithfull icon because its impossible to imagine such a counterfactual history of "if not" from here and now. Rest in peace.
I think TSMR was a great psychedelic album that was a necessary album to get to their golden era with Jumping Jack Flash with a good bye to psychedelia with Child of the Moon. Beggars Banquest, Rock and Roll Circus, Let it Bleed, Get Yer Ya Yas Out, Sticky Fingers, Exile on Main St. Ladies and Gentleman: The Rolling Stones concert movie, Goats Head Soup, Brussels Affair, It's Only Rock and Roll. People say it ended after Exile. The only thing wrong with Goats Head Soup was that it came after Exile. Goats Head Soup and It's Only Rock and Roll were great, top tier Rock and Roll.
Hey, This was a very cool video. I enjoyed watching it and commenting. I remember I had Beggars Banquet in my car for 3 years. I never put the radio on, I just listened to this great album that signaled the Golden era of the Stones had begun. Exile was like that, too. I only listened to Exile for inspiration for writing songs. Late nights, after getting home from playing gigs, I had Goats Head Soup on the turn table. That's a great late night/early morning album before the sun came up.
BB is the first Stones LP I ever bought (around 1981) and though they have many classics, it's still my favorite, particularly for the country blues of Prodigal Son and No Expectations. Thanks for making this video, I'm looking forward to watching it!
1981 was the year that I got into The Rolling Stones and the first album I ever heard of The Rolling Stones was in fact BB I can’t remember if I bought that year but, it was the first album of The Rolling Stones that I ever bought, I loved it from start to finish especially my favourite song on the album, Jigsaw Puzzle but personally I don’t think there’s a bad song on the album to be honest with you mate, I have been fortunate enough to have seen The Rolling Stones twice, I first saw them in 1990 at Wembley Stadium and then I saw them again 2018 in the Principallaty Stadium in Cardiff, South Wales and to be totally honest with you I thought they were much better in 2018 believe it or not. I never knew that the song Stray Cat Blues was heavily influenced by my favourite band of all time The Velvet Underground and their great song Heroin,it’s the first time I’ve ever heard that mate, it’s the early hours of the morning here in the Uk but, I’m gonna listen to that song right now mate and then I’ll come back to watch the rest of this video as soon as I’ve listened to the song. Take care brother, my best wishes to you from Stevie boy in England.
Exceptionally engrossing and enjoyable doc, replete with unique footage and anecdotes I had not previously encountered. This is my fave era of the Stones. Brilliant.⚡
in a movie called 'one plus one' by jean luc godard. mick jagger and brian jones were influenced by aleister crowley and jagger did the soundtrack for 'demon brother' kenneth anger
it's interesting to see these artists who promoted themselves as "working class heroes" who actually lived the lives of uber-affluent, bourgeois country gentlemen... this was increasingly prevalent amongst rock musicians as rock became fabulously lucrative and allowed them to become the rich privileged class that they criticized, living their lives as royalty, with no real connection to the fans. BB is my favorite stones album...
*“Because he's dead, I could say, 'Oh, Brian was a fantastic musician', but it wasn't true. Brian wasn't a great musician. --Keith Richards Dec 16, 2023*
@@CantTellYou Jack of all trades, master of none. That describes Jones pretty closely. His ability to play many instrument was fairly broad... But he had no depth whatsoever. All he could muster was single note melody lines copied from other parts of the songs. Never a counterpoint, harmony or syncopated rhythm. His best instrument was electric rhythm guitar, but he stopped playing guitar after he broke his left wrist trying to punch Anita in the face in a drunken rage while vacationing in Morocco.... I don't believe it ever healed correctly.
Despite my previous post, which a stand behind, I love this video. A really great comprehensive look at the band at the most important time in their history. Really kind of makes you sad for Brian, who was a musical genius, but also a trainwreck of a person.
@@DavidLee-bf2pe I made a video with all the music. It was striked for copyright, I'd loved to have been able to release it. It’s over on my Patreon page.
@@filmretrospective63 Not sure if Stones are on it, but I’ve seen a few channels recently using a service called LICKD to get around copyright strikes on music used. I have no clue how much it costs to license these popular songs through that service, but it may (or may not) be worth it.
Exile on main street and Beggars Banquet are the very best stones ever recorded.When they explored their blues roots,they were at their best.Although Let it bleed and sticky fingers are in my top 4 stones albums.All classics.
I certainly would Not say this was the Stones last Bluesy album......blues themes and riff run through many of their songs after BB..........but it is true Mick and Keith did take credit for and royalies from tunes that they certainly did not come up with by themselves.....they just didn't give anyone else credit......which was one of the main reasons Mick Taylor quit the stones. I love much of their music (mostly the older stuff), but am also aware Mick and Keith were large A holes at times.
A lot of filler in that album and again copycat with the album cover trying to look like the white album by the Beatles. They did the same thing with their psychedelic album which sucked trying to make it look like Sergeant peppers
Seems Mike and Keith lack good qualities of most humans, by being selfish and greedy in regard to giving credit to other lyric or idea contributors to the stones songs.
There lives look so messy and that's booze and drugs for ya!! It seems fun at the time but what goes up has to come down. Suicides, murders, abuse, cheating on friends it's horrible really they all lost it through ambition to be as big as The Beatles. Great songs but what a bunch of horrible bastards.
You really have no clue what you're talking about. If the Beatles and the Stones were "overrated", and "just a phase" their popularity, and an interest for their music wouldn't have lasted 60 years. That's not how phases work.
Other than Sympathy for the Devil and Street Fighting Man, it's a rather boring album filled with dumpy songs that never got airplay. The album cover pretty much sums it up.
Favourite Stones album. Jigsaw Puzzle is one of my favourite Stones tunes
Tout est bon sur ce disque.
C'est leur meilleur, de très loin.
Ditto on jigsaw puzzle and album prodigal son dear doctor stray cat and so on, also great cover

@dongo3636 No I never asked about Johnny's sessions. I always had a million things I wanted to ask him but never got much past the Stones.

I was always the Beatles rather than the Stones but I’m really enjoying these documentaries! Great work

Kinks, Johnny Rotten, Lemmy, OI!, Toy Dolls, your roots are richer ya square!
Charlie Watts punched Mick at that hotel for his shit...." I'm not your drummer you're my singer!"
Stones just more gutsy, visceral.
He already went through every Beatles session so we’ve landed here lol I love the path this channel has taken
One of the greatest albums of its era that also captured the civil unrest of the late 60's. Very good documentary.
wow this is one of the best rolling stones documentary ive seen in a long time. its cool you understand the lore of it all. sorry for saying lore.
Very great documentary projects!
Now that's an interesting video! 👍
This was excellent. Really interesting. It must have taken you ages to do the research alone. Many thanks for taking the time to do this.

That was fantastic. I really enjoyed that video very much so. Plenty of awesome records of the Stones maybe the Who, kinks
Excellent work. Thank you.
The intro of this video alone deserves 100 thumbs up
One of my favorite stones albums
Banger video, thank you!
In my opinion the album Beggars Banquet was the greatest album that The Rolling Stones ever made without a shadow of a doubt, I loved it from start to finish especially the great song Jigsaw Puzzle.
BEGGARS BANQUET was a start of a line of great albums, LET IT BLEED is my darling, but i love everything they recorded,even DIRTY WORK
Keith rocks !! Enough said folks ❤
This is a top-notch video and channel! Thanks for all your hard work!
I agree, it's a top piece of work although I'll have the music clip on my brain for the rest of my life now 😉
You really know how to go deep on these topics. It's great.
Thank you, well done.
I loved the Beatles and the Stones. Just like I loved Lou Reed and most the bands and performers that he hated.
Really lovely. Thanks!
The music from Brian’s trip to Morocco got released in 1971 as Brian Jones Presents the Pipes of Pan at Joujouka. I had a copy!
For Performance, only the exterior scenes were shot at Powis Square in Notting Hill Gate. The interior scenes were shot at another location in west London.
Mick and Keith were great songwriters... but also great at taking credit for other people's idea.
business first for them imo
You can't be 100% original without sounding like shit.
Mick Taylor would agree!

Sticky fingers also!!
Wonderful album❤
I was listening to this record as a mere child at a time in my life when the brain is still growing and sorting things out. I thank God it was this album.
Technically, ”Blue and lonesome” was their last bluesy album
And their best album since the seventies. Hands down
@@iHeartThe90s💯 Give the people what they want! ✌️
Even Hackney Diamonds has a blues song
Salt of the Earth wasn't Keith's inaugural solo vocal, he sang the 1st verse of Something Happened to Me Yesterday on Between the Buttons.
And he sang "Connection".
something rather groovy
Marianne Faithfull gave Mick the book he based the lyrics of Sympathy on. RIP ❤❤🎉

I think Keith played 3 or 4 guitar parts on every song. 🤣🤣
Not next to be released but definitely soon!
I think TSMR was a great psychedelic album that was a necessary album to get to their golden era with Jumping Jack Flash with a good bye to psychedelia with Child of the Moon. Beggars Banquest, Rock and Roll Circus, Let it Bleed, Get Yer Ya Yas Out, Sticky Fingers, Exile on Main St. Ladies and Gentleman: The Rolling Stones concert movie, Goats Head Soup, Brussels Affair, It's Only Rock and Roll. People say it ended after Exile. The only thing wrong with Goats Head Soup was that it came after Exile. Goats Head Soup and It's Only Rock and Roll were great, top tier Rock and Roll.
I prefer the Stones from 1963 - 1966.

it's interesting to see these artists who promoted themselves as "working class heroes" who actually lived the lives of uber-affluent, bourgeois country gentlemen... this was increasingly prevalent amongst rock musicians as rock became fabulously lucrative and allowed them to become the rich privileged class that they criticized, living their lives as royalty, with no real connection to the fans.
BB is my favorite stones album...
Keith sang solo on "Connection" before "Salt Of The Earth".
*“Because he's dead, I could say, 'Oh, Brian was a fantastic musician', but it wasn't true. Brian wasn't a great musician. --Keith Richards Dec 16, 2023*
Does seem like a bit of a “jack of all trades”, and how that phrase ends…..
@@CantTellYou
Jack of all trades,
master of none.
That describes Jones pretty closely.
His ability to play many instrument was fairly broad... But he had no depth whatsoever. All he could muster was single note melody lines copied from other parts of the songs. Never a counterpoint, harmony or syncopated rhythm.
His best instrument was electric rhythm guitar, but he stopped playing guitar after he broke his left wrist trying to punch Anita in the face in a drunken rage while vacationing in Morocco....
I don't believe it ever healed correctly.
What is the font used for the all-caps song titles?
Thanks
perpetua
Despite my previous post, which a stand behind, I love this video. A really great comprehensive look at the band at the most important time in their history. Really kind of makes you sad for Brian, who was a musical genius, but also a trainwreck of a person.
The Beatles and Rolling Stones win Grammy's in 2025, yeah, yeah, yeah !
.....🍏 👄.....
48:19 Also, the cover of Between The Buttons looked like Rubber Soul.
My favorite Stones album. Fantastic.
The Stones are and always will be the TOP OF ALL LEGENDS 🥰😍💖💜💙🧡🩵💢💥💫
Nope. The Beatles made it to a level no other legends have ever reached.
With Keith and Mick it was take what we give you or you are out !
Music included from Beggar's Banquet would have been sweet. Thumbs up anyway.

I made a video with all the music. It was striked for copyright, I'd loved to have been able to release it. It’s over on my Patreon page.
@@filmretrospective63 Not sure if Stones are on it, but I’ve seen a few channels recently using a service called LICKD to get around copyright strikes on music used. I have no clue how much it costs to license these popular songs through that service, but it may (or may not) be worth it.
Klein was soooo shiesty. Abko is still fukkkin things up to this day.
Exile on main street and Beggars Banquet are the very best stones ever recorded.When they explored their blues roots,they were at their best.Although Let it bleed and sticky fingers are in my top 4 stones albums.All classics.
I guess back then there was no xbox so the next best thing was witchcraft
lol “I can’t play GTA so the devil seems like a pretty cool way to spend my afternoon”
I certainly would Not say this was the Stones last Bluesy album......blues themes and riff run through many of their songs after BB..........but it is true Mick and Keith did take credit for and royalies from tunes that they certainly did not come up with by themselves.....they just didn't give anyone else credit......which was one of the main reasons Mick Taylor quit the stones. I love much of their music (mostly the older stuff), but am also aware Mick and Keith were large A holes at times.
Why did my viewing start 6 minutes into the video
You may have accidentally clicked the first timestamp, which is exactly at 6:00 titled “Marianne Faithfull”
Kieths guitar work. He handled it all brian couldnt
Factory Girl for me...
A lot of filler in that album and again copycat with the album cover trying to look like the white album by the Beatles. They did the same thing with their psychedelic album which sucked trying to make it look like Sergeant peppers
75 now love the even more now
Seems Mike and Keith lack good qualities of most humans, by being selfish and greedy in regard to giving credit to other lyric or idea contributors to the stones songs.
There lives look so messy and that's booze and drugs for ya!! It seems fun at the time but what goes up has to come down. Suicides, murders, abuse, cheating on friends it's horrible really they all lost it through ambition to be as big as The Beatles. Great songs but what a bunch of horrible bastards.
"the African roots of music"....lol
i dont smoke that shit but my God there shops now a days...legal aF so when I hear anit crap it makes me laugh
the narrator never shuts up
A load of overrated crap, just like the Beatles, never anything special, it was just a phase.
You really have no clue what you're talking about. If the Beatles and the Stones were "overrated", and "just a phase" their popularity, and an interest for their music wouldn't have lasted 60 years. That's not how phases work.
Other than Sympathy for the Devil and Street Fighting Man, it's a rather boring album filled with dumpy songs that never got airplay. The album cover pretty much sums it up.
