Why the stand-up bass? What song(s) was that used on? |
|
Lazy Bones |
That appearance included:
Connection
Ruby Tuesday
Let's Spend The Night Together
It's All Over Now
The "notes" of the Rocks Off (Gazza's?) page where I took this set from, notes a bluesy IAON. Perhaps that's it?!

the standup bass was used on Ruby Tuesday! This was also done during the Ed Sullivan appearance. |

Only "Its All Over Now" was truly "live" on this show. On the other songs they used an instrumental backing track with "live" vocals (as was the case on many TV shows around this time,including ED Sullivan Show)
Unfortunately there doesnt appear to be a surviving video tape of this show - the audio recording is in circulation though |

Man, I'd love to have the jacket that Brian is wearing...or the guitar that he's playing! |

Brian plays a non-reversed Gibson Firebird VII from 1966. The guitar isn't produced anymore, but due to a very limited popularity a clean 66 - 70 example can be purchased for about $1500, which is quite cheap if considered that a new reversed Firebird V is about $2000, and a clean 1963 - 65 reversed Firebird VII is worth about $8000 - $10.000

No No. I know what kind of guitar it is....I don't want one LIKE the one in the picture, I want THAT one. And I don't think it would cost a mere $1500.00, unless someone didn't know what they had....
And that really cool jacket that Brian was wearing....man that guy could dress.
But thanks for the Gibson info anyway. |

Sir Stonesalot, I have good news for you: the guitars of Brian Jones are -surprise surprise- not very much wanted on the collector/vintage guitar market, and some of them are sold for prices you and me probably can afford. Brian's white Vox Mark 2 ("Teardrop") guitar sold for under US$2000 at Sotheby's, Brian's 1956 Gibson Les Paul Goldtop was purchased by Bill Wyman for US$5000 (that one would do al lot more now -think US$ 20.000), Brian's Gibson J185 Jumbo and Gibson ES-330 didn't sell on a vintage guitar auction in Essen last year, and in London I spoke with a vintage guitar collector who owns guitars of Brian and Keith, and he said that Brian's guitars aren't worth much more than the normal vintage guitar price. He thinks that it is because Brian is not remembered as a guitar player, but as a founder of the Rolling Stones and 60's bad boy. Also, Brian's guitars are badly documented, so it is hard to say whether you will buy a real Brian Jones guitar. One guy owns Keith's 1958 Les Paul Standard with Bigsby tremelo (as used by Keith from 1964 until 1966, see TAMI show for example), and that one is worth about 500.000 British Pounds. He also owns Keith's 1957 Les Paul Custom with moons and daggers painted on it, but it's quite damaged, so it's only worth about 250.000 British pounds....

ps: Brian must have had a large collection of Gibson Firebirds, but none of them has shown up on the market. |
