Sunday Greetings - Grand photo posting! Many thanks to you all!
I find today's header amusing...especially the word choice
 :
Bill is having the last laugh...I noted elsewhere in the posts, that the very mum about Brian, Jimmy Page, was having a natter with Senor Wyman! Jimmy could tell us all a thing or two, if he chose to do so.
Have a wonderful day on "your pink half of the drainpipe."

"In late January 1969, I was invited to a party. I had been told that Brian had also been invited, but no one knew whether he'd be there.....Brian wasn't the only celebrity at the party, Peter Sellers, David Niven Jr and Roman Polanski were among the other famous guests. But Brian was special and was soon swamped by both men and women. I found him both exciting and dangerous."
From: The Murder of Brian Jones by Anna Wholin

Hi Joey, you are certainly welcome.
From, Guitar (February 2004, Vol 14 No 10)
"Although he's often overlooked when discussing the legend that is the Rolling Stones, and though the late Brian Jones may never have fulfilled his potential, his influence on the band - particulary as a talented multi-insrumentalist - shouldn't be forgotten. Jones had piano lessons from the ages of six to 14, studied music theory and played the clarinet - and this early musical training enabled him to pick up other musical instruments remarkably quickly.....
In 1966 and 1967 Jones found an outlet for his wide-ranging interests by writing and producing the film score for 'A Degree of Murder,' Germany's entry in the 1967 Cannes Film Festival, incorporating everything from a brass band to a country band with jew's-harp, violin and banjo. Jones also contributed piano, sitar, sax, dulcimer, autoharp and harmonica."

I have never posted on a "Brian" thread b/c i rfeally don't know that much about him...I know he was an integral part in the early years, but Mick and Keith quickly dominated him and he was supplanted as the group leader...he seemed a very sad figure towards the end and from what I've read, was not a particularlt nice person towards the opposite sex...still , without him, I guess there would be no Stones...so thanks Brian-RIP.. |

Hi JB - May I suggest reading both of Bill Wyman's tomes and James Phelge's "Nankering With the Stones?"
First Fig
by: Edna St Vincent Millay
"My candle burns at both ends;
It will not last the night,
But, ah, my foes, and oh, my friends-
It gives a lovely light!"

Ahh, shucks, fellas and thanks for all of the fab photos, SnK...here's another, a tad more obscure...
SONNET ON THE SLENDEREST OF THEMES
by: Courtland D Baker
If Spring were anything but this: a quaint
Device for love, I'd do away with spring,
For in it lies concealed the bitter taint
of Eden rotten with a serpent's sting.
But surely here was Eden once for me,
Spread out with flowered fields, and wild, and rare;
Yet, like an earlier Eve you could but see
A redder fruit that hung upon the air.
It is not Eden lost, but only spring;
It is not love that's gone, it is but you.
And surely there is a lute with other string,
A note as sweet, and one that rings as true.
Yet I would hold a discord twice as rare
If it recalled to me your bronzed hair.

For Stewed and Keef -
IN THE DESERT
by Stephen Crane
"In the desert
I saw a creature, naked, bestial,
Who, squatting upon the ground,
Held his heart in his hands,
And ate of it.
I said, "Is it good, friend?"
"It is bitter - bitter," he answered,
"But I like it
Because it is bitter,
And because it is my heart." |

Glad you like it...say when,
The Cold Heaven
by: W B Yeats
"Suddenly I saw the cold and rook-delighting heaven
That seemed as though ice burned and was but the more ice,
And thereupon imagination and heart were driven
So wild that every casual thought of that and this
Vanished, and left but memories, that should be out of season
With the hot blood of youth, of love crossed long ago;
And I took all the blame out of all sense and reason,
Until I cried and trembled and rocked to and fro,
Riddled with light. Ah! when the ghost begins to quicken,
Confusion of the death-bed over, is it sent
Out naked on the roads, as the books say, and stricken
By the injustice of the skies for punishment?
