Here is an interview with the Experiences' Bassist Noel Redding, who mentiones about BJ besides all the Stones (He also shared his memories of BJ in the book "The Golden Stone').
FB:- So what was your first encounter with psychedelics?
NR:- The first time was on an airplane going from London to New York. I was sitting beside Brian Jones and he gave me this little tablet and he said "Take it''. So I took it because like he was Brian Jones, you know! The next thing I basically remember was that I was on some boat in New York and I said "Well it doesn't affect me'' and the next thing I knew was I was in San Francisco (laughter). It did affect me actually!
FB:- What do you have to say about psychedelics? Would you do it again?
NR:- I wouldn't do it again, ever. I suppose the old natural stuff would be ok, the old mushroom, but I wouldn't advise anyone to do it. Then again, I've taken a lot. I took a lot of LSD over many years. I wouldn't advise anyone to do it unless they know what they're doing. If I was sitting beside Brian Jones again and he gave
me a tablet, I suppose I'd still take it (laughter).
FB:- (How well did you know...) What about the Stones?
NR:- Well I used to hang out with Brian at the Speakeasy and he used to take me home in his Rolls and drop me off at my ? a week flat. He was very nice. Brian was a very nice person.
I really hope there will be more people like Noel sharing fond meories of BJ.
