Inseparable, they dressed alike, and began to look alike. But they fought about everything. Brian hit Anita and she hit back. Brian was abusive and jealous. Keith later said Anita made a man of him. They also explored similar sexual and mystical extravagances.
While filming Candy , Marlon Brando kidnapped Anita for an evening of sex and poetry, and invited Keith to join them. Keith and Anita named their first son Marlon. The couple had three children during their 13 years together. Richards still considered Anita a friend when he married Patty Hansen in But the effect on Jones was devastating. Jethro Tull, the Who, and Taj Mahal all performed song. Bill Wyman complained about this in his book A Stone Alone , but Richards had a tendency during this period to be more musically assaultive.
Richards is playing bass. Richards had dropped acid, along with Jagger and Marianne Faithfull, who famously greeted the cops nude but for a fur rug. The cops were tipped off by the tabloids which spun the item as an orgy, with a few sordid details about a Mars candy bar being used to further oral stimulation.
Jones was arrested May 10, , after cops found marijuana, cocaine, and methamphetamine at his place. He was arrested again on May 21, , for possession of cannabis. Jones said it was left there by the people who used to rent the apartment, but he was on probation. The jury found him guilty, but Jones got a lenient sentence of a fine and court costs, and a warning never to get in trouble again.
Jones reportedly only occasionally showed up for rehearsals and studio sessions, and when he did plug in, a fellow bandmate might just turn off his amp. In May he drove his motorcycle into a shop window and was hospitalized under an alias. Let it Bleed was scheduled for a July release, and pianist Ian Stewart suggested the band add a new guitarist.
Jones was told the band would carry on without him by Jagger, Richards and Charlie Watts on June 8, He is also the right bottom of the five-pointed star configuration the band is laying in on the insert photo. Neither of these details raise it to the level of damnable evidence for the conspiracy theory positing Brian Jones was killed in a ritual sacrifice. Made paranoid by drugs he was too frail to deal with, Jones lost his bandleader mantle to Jagger, his girlfriend to Richards, and his asthma inhaler by the side of a pool.
Discussions got heated, according to the allegation, and Keith pulled a knife on Jones. The claim was made by Jan Bell, the daughter of Frank Thorogood, the man who confessed on his deathbed to drowning Jones in November Brian drowned in a swimming pool at his house in East Sussex, the former residence of A.
We decay like corpses in a charnel; Fear and grief convulse us and consume us day by day And cold hopes swarm like worms within our living clay. Jones, of course, was the Rolling Stone most often connected to drugs, having been convicted twice on cannabis possession charges — in and Both times he received fines and warnings.
I f Keith Richards and Mick Jagger were the mind and body of the Rolling Stones, Brian Jones, standing most of the time in the shadows, was clearly the soul. Jagger was out front on stage, and Richards, the lead guitar, was the man with the music. He was the most hairy, the most dapper, and the most versatile with musical instruments.
He was the first to leave the group — months, actually, before the news announcements. He was a Rolling Stone before he joined in , and he led the life of a true Rolling Stone from to Brian Jones was born February 28, in Cheltenham in Gloucestershire county, 98 miles to the west of London. He had musical, well-to-do parents in this health-spa-dominated, well-to-do-town. Brian Jones played trad jazz with various bands in small clubs and halls around the west country until the music — and a confining daytime office job — drove him off to distant Scandinavia.
Just as Jones suffered with Jagger and Richard through jobless, moneyless, foodless days and nights in and out of a dingy Chelsea flat, he was in the forefront when it came time to work — trad jazz was beginning to fade — and to fight against the older musicians so determined to maintain their club jobs.
But the full group — with a college student Dick Taylor on bass and a succession of fill-in men on drums — really began when Jones found a club in Richmond-Surrey willing to hire them. First press clippings which Brian saved in his wallet , the addition of Charlie Watts and Bill Wyman; help from Paul McCartney and John Lennon in the recording studios, growing audience enthusiasm — and the band rolled.
Life as a Rolling Stone, of course, was life as a blotter for massive smear jobs by the press and by straight entertainers bewildered by the ragtag, long-locked young rebels. But someone had to answer the scurrilous, widespread attacks. Brian did:.
