Book Description
Brian Jones as legend and icon is familiar to generations of rock fans, but the reality of his life and what he achieved has been less visible. Granted godlike status alongside giants like Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, and Janis Joplin, Jones was in fact much more than the Stones' ill-fated pretty boy. Set against the dramatic backdrop of the swingin' sixties, Alan Clayson's biography reveals an extremely talented musician and a surprisingly driven man whose creative energies propelled him to fame even as they prepared him for an early demise via drugs and drink. Clayson interviewed many of Jones's contemporaries and family members for this in-depth portrait that includes an assessment of his place in, and contributions to, the crucial early years of the Stones. The author also examines the enduring rumors that Jones was murdered by a bodyguard.
