Inception

One of the members who formed the Rolling Stone band is Keith Richards and Mick Jagger. They happened to be childhood friends and went to the same school. What brought them to a common interest is the Chuck Berry and Muddy Waters records he was holding and used to play with his friend, Dick Taylor, as they had formed a band garage band.

Now the three formed a musical partnership and used to meet at Jagger’s house and later at Taylor’s house. Shortly after, Alan Etherington and Bob Beckwith joined and named their band “The Blue Boys.”

In March 1962, the Blue Boys read in the newspaper about the father of British Blues, Alexis Korner. He was known for blues band, blues incorporated, and rhythm and decided to send him a recording of their music.

He was so music impressed by their performance and invited them over. Om 7 April 1962, they visited Eagling Jazz Club and met some of the members as Brian Jones the slide guitarist, Ian Stewarts the keyboardist, and Charlie Watts, the drummer. They started cooperating in music production.

Jones had left the Blues Incorporated band and advertised in Jazz Weekly for bandmates and was joined by Stewart and formed Chicago Blues. Later, Richards, Jagger, and Taylor joined them after having Blues Incorporated.

Geoff Bradford, the guitarist, and Brian Knight, the vocalist, did not join the band after objecting to the Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley songs suggested by Jagger and Richards. A new drummer, Tony Chapman, was added, completing the band, and Jones gave the “Rollin Stone” name to the band during an interview with Jazz News.

Evolution

The Rollin Stones played their first show on 12 July 1962, the band consisting of Jagger, Taylor, Jones, Richards, and Stewart. On their first tour to the UK, they performed Chicago Blues and songs Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley. The band later changed their name to The Rolling Stones and signed Andrew Log Oldham as their manager in May 1963. By this time, he was only nineteen and the youngest in the band, and he had not reached majority age, so he could not sign a contract without his mother co-signing.

The first single of the band was “Come On,” which was a cover by Chuck Berry which was released on 7 June 1963. The band had several other songs, and in January 1965, they released The Rolling Stones No. 2, which reached no. 1 on the charts. Most of the songs they released always ranked top on the charts.
