Godzilla  said about 2 years ago  or at  11:31AM on Monday, August 31 2009 in music news

The death of former Rolling Stones guitarist Brian Jones is to be reviewed following new evidence, it has been revealed.

Police in Sussex were handed new information connected to the musician's untimely death 40 years ago.

Mr Jones, was found dead at the bottom of a swimming pool at a house in Cotchford farm, Hartfield, East Sussex.

An inquest recorded a verdict of death by misadventure but speculation continued that he was murdered.

A spokesman for Sussex police said the force had been handed documents connected with Jones's death, prompting the review.

But he added it was too early to launch a fresh investigation.

He added: ''These papers will be examined by Sussex Police, but it is too early to comment at this time as to what the outcome will be.''

Jones, who was 27 when he died, was a founding member of the Rolling Stones.

Now I have Psychic TV's 'Godstar' stuck in my head.

Pretty sure the outcome will be that he is still dead.


puretokyo  said about 2 years ago:

plus, brian was a fucking loser.


The_Tupelo_Flash  said about 2 years ago:

no way, brian was the coolest stone - and was responsible for their blues sound

if brian were alive he'd have been the prominent stones guitarist and keith would have been ronnie woods in the background


__v  said about 2 years ago:

This reminds me that there was a fat version of Ron Wood in my dream last night. Probably a sign that eating a large pizza just before retiring is a poor strategy.


puretokyo  said about 2 years ago:

brian had already been kicked out though, and mick taylor as his replacement was the best thing that happened to the band

brian always looked like a massive idiot too. see one+one or rock'n'roll circus.


__v  said about 2 years ago:

I feel sorry for him in One Plus One.

His ability to be a cunt is pretty evident from that Stanley Booth book, from memory. Still, band politics can get pretty cruel.

NEVER! Never again would they be able to repeat the relentless awesomeness of the first LP, or the retarded psych-pop of Satanic Majesties. Mick Taylor introduced the boring bar-room bullshit to the Rolling Stones, and they got stuck with it ever since.


The_Tupelo_Flash  said about 2 years ago:

Exactly, Brian was an innovator

How anyone could prefer boring Mick Taylor over Brian Jones is beyond me!


hyperfuzz  said about 2 years ago:

it was his band!


puretokyo  said about 2 years ago:

also used to beat his girlfriends. end of story.


The_Tupelo_Flash  said about 2 years ago:

god... i ain't condoning it, but so many muso's have been guilty of that


Rod of Justice  said about 2 years ago:

wouldnt he be a pile of liquid by now?


loveparade  said about 2 years ago:

yeah the builder did it. haven't you seen 'stoned'? that proves it


Gorn  said about 2 years ago:

Well they did record most of their best work in the Mick Taylor period - Sticky Fingers, Exile, Let it Bleed... I don't think there's a huge correlation between these classic albums and Mick Taylor joining the band however.

Was he the founding member of rock's ''dead at 27'' club?

yeah look mondotopus or monotonous or whatever ya name is..

the times changed altamont sort of ended hippie psych shit/straight rock n blues became more the vine as social changes changed everything again. Im not saying one is better than the other, why should one say that dude? It's like saying ya know 1966 is better than 1972. It aint neccessarily so. I mean the stones changed wth the times, etc..go watch 'miss you' etc ha.. It's just you know you rant some kid rant about the stones and we know the stones dude. we all lived stones music and lived the years in rehash. I mean what is your point? It's as boring as batshit this rant about da awesomenes of brian jones stones, yeah it was awesome like jimi and the rest of em but when they all died dude things changed/ look I know it's hard ya got the young man blues. that's cool but like chill and apprciate the stones and a holistic thing. ya know mick taylor did a fucking great job. he is cool ya know. part of the thing is they could change and still be cool. Floyd did it as well moving from Syd to the prog floyd. It's just the way it went..

stop being so fucking totalitarian. It's like some of you melbourne dudes put on this gigantic act where ya live a particular thing it feels comfortable like a good pair of jeans and dude it is man. but dude ya know ya gotta keep moving on/// peace.
