In the real world the four member band formerly known as the Blue Boys WAS the Rollin Stones with two new guys recently added . On July 12th 1962 they first performed at a paying gig at the Marquee Club in the Soho area of London. Brian "recruited" exactly one sixth of the Rollin Stones, Ian Stewart. Mick and Keith, Dick and Tony remained members of the Blue Boys until they changed their name to the Rollin stones shortly before that performance where they ALL performed as the Rollin Stones. Mick and Keith had been trying to "recruit" Charlie, for nearly a year, but as Keith noted they couldn't afford him. Charlie was married and he required the steady gig he had with Blues Incorporated, Alexis Korner's band at the Ealing Club. When Dick Taylor , the Stones bass player quit the Stones, the entire band advertised by word of mouth that they needed a new bass player and Bill auditioned and got the position in mid December of 1962...Six months after they began to play clubs as the Rolling Stones. In January of 1963 Blues Incorporated broke up and Charlie asked Alexis what he should do. Alexis told him to "Go with Mick's band because they always wanted you and you will do well with them". By then the Rolling Stones were regularly playing out and had the steady work that Charlie required. So he just joined without any "recruiting". Jones and Ian JOINED the Blue Boys and Brian had only "recruited" Ian and no other member of the Rolling Stones. That is the timeline and a factual account of how the band formed.

Classic rock n roll song from The Classic Rock n Roll Man. Right on. Thank you Bill Wyman.

The only one who threw a fit was Bill. After convincing many journalists and book writers and much of the local press with his big lie that Brian had founded the Stones the cocky bastard thought he could just as easily manipulate the Dartford town council by saying, to the press, that the plaque was "disgusting". The head of the town council, Jeremy Kite and the local Historical Heritage organization took Bill's claims under advisement and they even announced that they would change the wording on the plaque to keep everyone happy ...All the press made big news of their concession. But when the officials held a hearing on the matter and looked into the historical record of who were the first members of the original Rollin Stones and just who organized all six of the first members, the council concluded that Bill's claims " held no water" and that the plaque's wording was accurate, correct and required no editing or changes. "Mick Jagger and Keith Richards ... went on to form the Rolling Stones..." remains the wording on the plaque.

when he was 50 years old he was diddling 13 year old girls....lmao

Bill was never the best bass player.Hell, Bill wasn't even the best bass player in the Rolling Stones. Keith played bass on most of their biggest hits. Lets not forget that the main reasons Bill was allowed to join is because Dick Taylor left the Rolling stones to start his own band .Bill always had cigarettes for everyone and he had a coupe of spare amplifiers they could use

I have no idea who this guy is, but those lyrics are great!

Great groove, but let down by the insipid guitar solo. Needed someone like Albert Lee to really let rip.

Happy days Bill. Listening today.

Keep them coming Sir , thats a great song

Listen to that bass tone!

There's no mistaking that bass playing! I've been listening to Bill play for 60 years and never tire of his brilliant basslines - so thrilled to have some new music from him.

I like all of them but thunder on the mountain is quite catchy if you know what I mean, drive my car I love in a way they sound similar partly because of the timings and the lyrics repeating . ❤

What made the Rolling Stone’s stand out was that they had a wicked rhythm section, and therefore great sound especially on the early albums. Thanks Bill!!!

Thank you for having the drive and perseverance to deliver up colourful, vibrant images to match the beat.

Drive my car.

Miss Bill with the Rolling Stones !

Bill- you have always kept it simple. This is what makes your style of playing and recording awesome! Love the Album and wish you and the family health and happiness. Cheers from Austin!

Omg, I loved this song ,, go bill,, amazing that it wasn't no 1

You’re looking well Bill. Good luck with the album.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Love you and your music Bill! Cant wait to get your new record, i really liked your last solo effort, Back to Basics!❤

@Bill Wyman: Greetings from Germany - i like your music. There is a German Rockabilly stream on Twitch every Wednesday evening: RadioHotRod. As a subscriber there, i managed 2 of your Songs to be played there: "Willie and the Poor Boys - Poor Boy Boogie" and "Bill Wyman`s Rythm Kings - Jitterbug". All 40 live-viewers liked both songs, but had never heard of these 2 music group formations before. Maybe Friday i can introduce them to your new album "Drive my Car".

Is Bill singing?

Why wasn't he ever investigated for sexual activity with a fifteen year old?

Thanks for the insights Bill. Cheers! 🥨

I saw Rolling Stones January 1964 on their first tour, Woolwich SE London. Nobody would ever have guessed how long they’d continue. Ronettes were top act on the bill! Can’t remember too much about it! So long ago.

You are watching the first Rolling Stone to go out and do a solo album- Bill's extraordinary talent and drive is still on display even today. Cheers from Austin, TX.

Hey Bill nice to see you healthy 🤩🙏✌️

nono28 nos vieilles pierres qui roulent toujours

Good luck with the new album ✨

Jeez US. Who wrote these amazingly AWFUL lyrics????!!!!!! Did Billy really do that???!!!! OMG!!! Somebody needed to let him know this should NEVER have went out. Zero income for Billy and a gut punch to his Rep.

Bill's best album to date! Love it.

Who would have guessed that Bill Wyman could play the piano? Funny to see him as a frontman considering his quiet, out of the spotlight presence in the Stones.

Bill is the stones! classic! i love Bill stuff

Bill, really love the new album. Well done mate. Dig the "Ask Keith" kinda vibe

Bill's a real Nobleman!❤❤❤

Never stop moving, playing, collecting, sharing & giving. Your knack for excellence is simply stellar. So few humans get to live 2, possibly even 3 lives in one trip down to earth. All the more for us fans! Thank you for being so stealth & cool.

Underrated legend Kieth is a great bassist also Not to mention Ronnie

New York sans la statue de la liberté !!! Paris sans la tour Eiffel !!! Les Stones sans Bill Wyman et maintenant sans Charlie !!!😢

About time we had a statue of Brian and his Vox guitar in Cheltenham, his hometown. No Brian, no Stones.

Great to see your new album Bill Wyman

"I want to get me a gun". and have a bunch girls dance around me and such. love you bill.
