Sure is. 1968. It's also used as a cover for one of the 80,000 books written about the band. Note Wyman's t-shirt. He must have worn that one about a million times.
Am i wrong, or is that pic from a single? |

It was in the very first issue of Hit Parader I ever bought, in early '69. You can tell by the extreme length of Mick & Keith's hair (and Mick's dye job) that it's from sometime after R&R Circus and Performance. Brian looks awful. It's got to be one of the last publicity shots with him in it. Also the gayest pose ever!
Bill wore that same stupid shirt at the Hyde Park photo shoot where they introduced Mick Taylor. |

FPM,
Is that Bob Ross in your avatar? or is it a demented Chuck? |

I don't have my vinyl handy right now, but isn't that similar to what they were wearing on the Through The Past Darkly sleeve?
I believe that session was sometime around April/May '69.
Regardless, Mick, Keith, & Charlie's hair seems much longer here than in R&R Circus, so I'd say this pic is at least 2-3 months later.
Anybody have any other pics of Brian in '69? |

Their success certainly shows in their footwear! LOL!
Aren't those Brian's snakeskin boots that the Hard Rock Café displays? They're listed as #7 on the Café's Top Ten Items of Memorabilia:

Two "thank you" letters with accompanying envelopes from Brian Jones, his snakeskin boots, a vest worn and signed by Keith Richards during a 1970's tour, and a guitar played by Ron Wood.
I'm guessing that's not, however, Keith's same vest shown in the pic.  |

Check out my avatar - taken by a fan who went to see him, of Brian, in May 1969! |

They are all holding hands with one another - you know, love and peace and all that rot!
Cheers! |

Wasn't Wyman wearing that t-shirt on the poster that came with "Let It Bleed"? |

It is their jolliest photo ever, everybody having good time there, and I firstly thought all that unposed smiling & teasing was caused by some cute chick - however, that's not true!!
The shooter requested them to hold their hands ("and only Mick was not embarrassed"), that being too funny even for the real symbols of personal freedom. It is an Rolleiflex F2,8 shot with its typical perspective distortion, making the sexy sexless frontman to apear bulkier than Charlie, who is actually the only musky guy there. I especially like Keef's wacky expression, "feeling so good between his right and left hands." It is a shot depicting the moment of their definitive conquering of the top. Shaded only with Brian's personal tragedy.
I liked this shot as kid and was very enthusiasted after "rediscovering" it. And I would be very obliged if somebody would link a better scan of it.

If I'm not mistaken, it's from the Through The Past Darkly photo shoot, which was the VERY LAST set of photos of Brian with the Stones. I'm thinking February or March '69. In one book it gives an exact date. |

I hate to see the Stones smiling, even if these kind of pictures are rare...the Stones look their best and in their element trying to look raunch, Wyman deadpan, and Charlie looking away or feeling most out of place. |

I don't agree. I think he looks pretty damn cool with those snakeskin boots. There are a few other photos of him from the same session. I like the one featured in the A Life On The Road book which is him sitting down trying to blow up a balloon |

This was the shot that was used on the back of the Vinyl LP of "Stone Age". Underneath the picture on the LP was the disclaimer by the Stones, about them not being involved in the making of the album and/or the lousy artwork of the front cover. Which was a poor man's ripoff of Beggar's Banquet. In those days the original BB had hardly ever even been seen.
I always thought that Jagger looked very obnoxious with that fat grin and that tanktop. BJ looks ready to die. And Keith has some very pressed pants. |

It does look like Charlie just whipped out his tool and is shaking it at the photogarpher. LOL |

It's on the cover of an old Stones book i had somewhere. Crappily written book from mid 70's.
Wyman sure got his moneys worth with that t-shirt! Like he did with that light blue suit in 81-82. |
