The Rolling Stones are an English rock band formed in London in 1962. Diverging from the pop rock of the early-1960s, the Rolling Stones pioneered the gritty, heavier-driven sound that came to define hard rock.[1] Their first stable line-up was vocalist Mick Jagger, multi-instrumentalist Brian Jones, guitarist Keith Richards, drummer Charlie Watts, and bassist Bill Wyman. During their formative years Brian Jones was the primary leader: he put the band together, named it, and drove the sound and look of the band. After Andrew Loog Oldham became the group's manager in 1963, he encouraged them to write their own songs. Jagger and Richards became the primary creative force behind the band, alienating Jones, who developed a drug addiction that interfered with his ability to meaningfully contribute. He left the band shortly before his death in 1969, having been replaced by guitarist Mick Taylor, who in turn left in 1974 to be replaced by Ronnie Wood. Since Wyman's departure in 1993, the band has continued on as a four-piece.
Rooted in blues and early rock and roll, the Rolling Stones started out playing covers and were at the forefront of the British Invasion in 1964, also being identified with the youthful and rebellious counterculture of the 1960s. They then found greater success with their own material as "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction", "Get Off of My Cloud" and "Paint It Black" became No. 1 hits in the UK, North America, Australia and Europe. Aftermath (1966) - their first entirely original album - is considered the most important of their formative records.[2] In 1967, they had the double-sided hit "Ruby Tuesday"/"Let's Spend the Night Together" and then experimented with psychedelic rock on Their Satanic Majesties Request. They went back to their roots with such hits as "Jumpin' Jack Flash" (1968) and "Honky Tonk Women" (1969), and albums such as Beggars Banquet (1968), featuring "Sympathy for the Devil", and Let It Bleed (1969), featuring "You Can't Always Get What You Want" and "Gimme Shelter". Let It Bleed was the first of five straight No. 1 albums in the UK. In 1969, they were first introduced on stage as 'The Greatest Rock and Roll Band in the World'.
Sticky Fingers (1971), which yielded "Brown Sugar", was the first of eight consecutive No. 1 studio albums in the US for the Rolling Stones. Exile on Main St. (1972), featuring "Tumbling Dice", and Goats Head Soup (1973), yielding the hit ballad "Angie", were also best sellers. They released successful albums until the early 1980s, including their two largest sellers: Some Girls (1978), featuring the disco-tinged "Miss You"; and Tattoo You (1981), featuring the hit rocker "Start Me Up". They then kept a low profile until 1989 when they released Steel Wheels, featuring "Mixed Emotions", which was followed by Voodoo Lounge (1994), a worldwide number one album that yielded the popular "Love Is Strong". Both albums were promoted by large stadium and arena tours as the Stones continue to be a huge concert attraction; by 2007 they had four of the top five highest-grossing concert tours of all time. Their latest album, Blue & Lonesome (2016), became their twelfth UK number-one album. Their No Filter Tour ran for two years concluding in August 2019. They have released 30 studio albums, 23 live albums, and numerous compilations.
The Rolling Stones' estimated record sales of 240 million makes them one of the best-selling music artists of all time.

Amazing photos, exile on main street is a master piece. the rolling stones ,they got to be the coolest looking band of all time.

[@MeandMonAmi]

Yup!

[@alraymond1618]

I was just in Nice in September 2023 and stayed at the Best Wester you walked by. That store was at teh end of the maybe 50 feet away from our hotel. I stopped in (as the store was still open) and bout a signed copy of the book, and so glad I did. What an artifact! Also took a day trip to Villefranche-sur-mer and also tried to go to the VIlle Nelle Cote house but there was nothing to see from the outside. But loved the town of VFSM...wonderful 30 min train ride from Nice

[@MeandMonAmi]

So glad you enjoyed VFSM and found the shop!

[@jimmybuckets5863]

I have never been to France and I’m a huge Rolling Stones fan from America, and so actually the first thing I thought of WAS The Rolling Stones making Exile! Great video!

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks Jimmy!

[@Havanacuba1985]

I think of the Stones as I’m a huge fan & over the years have read up on all that time in their lives.

[@MeandMonAmi]

And amazingly that gallery selling those photos that was a pop up over 2 years ago is still popped up in Nice

[@cgarciaad]

Thankz for the Tour forwards the 71's!

[@kurtharrington7277]

Dena again Tim. Loved this! We will definitely want to visit the exhibit. Thanks so much for sharing. I had heard about the Stones at Nellcote but seeing the photos is fascinating. Thanks again!

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks Dena! Hopefully still on when you are here.

[@andyshacks7812]

That was really interesting. I’d definitely pay that a visit if I were in Nice. Blimey it all goes on in Villefranche! Thanks Tim. 👍

[@philipdru9290]

You forgot about Robert Greenfield. He was there for a good portion of the recording and then was with them on the’72 Tour.

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks

[@thiagocorrea2028]

Thanks

Those days....

[@MeandMonAmi]

Indeed!

[@joanlynch5271]

This is a great video 👍. I just started to watch the videos yesterday, lol I wonder if you could speak french occasionally? Also if you could talk about how you decided to move to your town, Villefranche. Thanks for the videos! Live well!

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks Joan!

[@stootsievonsalzburg7769]

aaaaah! Until September 19th... I'll arrive a week later!

[@MeandMonAmi]

That’s annoying. Maybe they’ve extended?

[@franbacon4293]

Fantastic vlog Tim, a really heart lifter after all the travel ( not) fiascos again in UK - 🙏🏻

[@MeandMonAmi]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@zigo1958]

Interesting . I guess there is a copyright issue about playing Stones tracks but the generic stand-in music is really off the mark.

[@peterbee88]

Yeah the music is absolute shite.

[@wendymeulemans708]

Just discovered your channel. I’ll be there 1 October I hope this exhibit is still going on. I see there’s gonna be an exhibit in Marseille from June 6 to September . I won’t get there until October 1. Traveling from the US hopefully they’ll let us in

[@MeandMonAmi]

Hope so!

[@carlthomson3694]

Really good vid 👍👍👌💯🇫🇷

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks Carl.

[@lauragaggi4948]

Why not try a fundraiser? 😘 What a great piece to own. Very enjoyable vlog!

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks Laura. I may do that (but I think it might have to be to fund the channel in general!)

[@TERRANOVAofficial]

one man had access? looking at the pictures in the pallenberg film and her stories tell a different story

[@pearcey68]

Wasn't the mobile studio name checked in 'Smoke on the water' by Deep Purple?

[@MeandMonAmi]

I don’t know Paul but it sounds very credible!

[@lagreyeyes]

Yes, it was.

[@judewessel5713]

They recorded it on the stones unit yessir. A lot of physical graffiti way also done on this unit. A god tier piece of music history

[@denniskinzler5890]

Read up & down with The Rolling Stones by Tony Sanchez- the stories of their stay there were hysterical

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks for tip off

[@flyingburritobro68]

Sanchez was a liar and felon. Richards who admits everything he did said that Tony’s book was fantasyland

[@terrycarthy4433]

I had Up/Down at school forty years ago ; every kid borrowed it!

Any idea where these photos are now Tim ?

Galerie l’instant is still in Nice. The pop up survived!

[@Giantdaz72]

@@MeandMonAmi great I shall go see them next week ..thanks for that

[@Giantdaz72]

@MeandMonAmi enjoyed the gallery..bought the book that the lady attending is shipping to us after Dominique signs a dedication, over the moon, thanks again for the tip

[@MeandMonAmi]

@@Giantdaz72 How fantastic and thanks for letting me know!

[@freefrankgable]

Any idea where the exhibit is currently displayed?

[@MeandMonAmi]

I think it was a temporary exhibition but the gallery/shop is still there

[@jonnicklison449]

Don’t see gram. P There maybe he was kicked out the circle & the photos 😮

[@frankfarago2825]

Someone is in dire need of some dental work. Doctor Glimmer Twins, with an office on Main Street perhaps?

[@peterbee88]

Anyone who is a Stones fan will think of them when Villefranche Sur Mare is mentioned. Why are you interspersing this with shit music btw? Isn't Exile good enough for you, for a vid about Exile?

[@MeandMonAmi]

Have you heard of copyright?

[@MeandMonAmi]

Copyright??

[@peterbee88]

@@MeandMonAmi Yeah, I've also heard of music that isn't shit as well. The music on this is shit.

[@326vince]

More interesting then the album. I’ve never got through that thing. Sleeping pill shoulda been the title. All down the line is the only interesting tune. Basically cause of Taylor’s slide.

[@MeandMonAmi]

That’s funny. I tried and failed too!

[@margaretchabaud9700]

Thats sad for you

[@flyingburritobro68]

It’s their best work and a top 5 all time rock album. If you can’t get into it you are not a blues rock fan

[@Giantdaz72]

It's a masterpiece...2nd only to Sticky Fingers
