Hendrix,Garcia, Stones before helicopter to Altamont

[@jondoe6273]

Whenever i see clips of Hendrix, he's almost always got a guitar in his arms and often just jamming around with someone else. It really was an exstension of himself. He would morph into this confident guy with his guitar, without it, he was shy. He certainly was a playing machine.

[@chucku.farley6463]

Oh, when you're a musician(as in, you honestly enjoy playing and it's not just a put on), then playing your instrument is the thing that's typically gonna make you the happiest. I'm always the most laid back and out of my anxiety when i'm in front of my keyboard.

This is worth it just to hear Ian Stewart's voice and see his face. Very rare. Good ol' Charlie, never putting up with Jagger's foolishness.

[@steveconn]

"The Stones was Ian's band" says Keef (who couldn't give Brian credit for anything).

[@falcon5467]

While it was Brian who formed the group it was Ian Stewart who did the hard work of keeping the band working on schedules and maintaining a high degree of musicianship. Until a recording session had Ian's approval they weren't allowed to leave the studio. Brian's combination of frustration at being shoved aside by the Jagger-Richards-Andrew Loog Oldham triumvirate followed by his overindulgence of drugs and the destructive behavior that it brought out sabotaged his very promising career. Ian Stewart adapted to his role in the Stones, Brian couldn't and didn't.

[@steveconn]

Robert Cross C'mon, Stewart refused to play minor keys while playing piano (why they brought in Nicky Hopkins). Just a lunkhead roadie and golf enthusiast who had nothing to do with the Stones studio behavior. To even put him in the same breath of importance to the Stones musically as Brian - who formed the band with a burning mission for the blues and contributed so many different colors and sound to Stones recordings -is a complete farce.

[@falcon5467]

I'm not saying Ian was a great musician. But he had a very diligent work ethic and the kind of forceful but lovable personality that pushed the Stones to put out the best product they were capable of. They all respected him as their severest critic who kept them from being too full of themselves. Brian, while the most artistic musician of the bunch, was far too lackadaisical in work ethics and too non-committal in his relationships to other people to be given the title of "leader" of the Stones.

[@steveconn]

Robert Cross Brian was the one who formed the group in the first place; without him Mick would've ended up a banker who sang along with Alexis Korner's band on occasional weekends for fun, and Keith would've ended up in Chuck Berry cover bands the rest of his life. Look at youtube clips; Brian is the spokesman for the group while Mick and Keith are silent in the background, he lead the band through rehearsals and corrected their playing through the first critical year, while Stu's biggest contribution was saying (Wyman quote): "Okay my little shower of shit/three-chord wonders, you're on." End of story.

It's true what you're saying about people in the '90's being, "more real". I was in high school during the early 90's and I must say that I feel the same way about people back then. Everything is becoming less and less, "real" thanks to computers (in my opinion at least). Think about how fake popular music has become. Katy Perry and Nicki Minaj and all these popular singers don't rely on actual musical instruments when creating their, "music". They do rely HEAVILY on computers and drum machines to create their sounds which replicate traditional musical instruments. People also take "fake" pictures and post them to instagram or facebook -those aren't real pictures of people!! They've all been "touched up" and redone to make them look their best. It's fake.

[@_Singularity_]

It seems like cultural movements like this come in waves. Just looking at it from the music point of view, the image the Stones pushed was a response to the stiff and suffocating culture they grew up in, and then a few years later punk would come along to try to bring "authenticity" back into the popular music they saw as stagnant by the later 70s. Today, you can see a lot of the young rappers coming up to push against a music culture of one-dimensional pop stars.

That's pier 1 where they caught the chopper. I fished there for years by the Ferry Building. I remember as a kid when the Oakland/SF helicopter took off from right there and flopped right into the bay.

[@DC-ih8bv]

You can see the presence of Jagger is just overwhelming even to Jerry Garcia . Wish I were a fly on that wall behind Hendrix.

@Dirk Diggler That's exactly why I wouldn't want to be around him, though.....

[@PedroYippeekayaye]

You may know more than me, but I don't think he was an asshole or anything, just a flamboyant and demanding rockstar with an ego that demanded people's attention. I can think of worse personalities.

[@EmericaNobles]

Wow. Footage of Jimi Hendrix playing a left handed guitar. Amazing

[@dailyflash]

It's backstage at a Rolling Stones concert, at Madison Square Garden, 1969. Jimi and Mick are acting weird around each other.

[@slow-mo_moonbuggy]

Mick was pissed at Jimi for trying to steal Marianne Faithfull from him. Just read about it in a well written book by Stanley Booth.

[@slow-mo_moonbuggy]

+dailyflash At a party, Mick cut his finger and Jimis longtime girlfriend Devon went up to mick and sucked the blood off. In the song "Dolly Dagger" Jimi sings "She drinks her blood from the jagged edge" in reference to this incident. I have a head full of useless rock trivia.

[@paulablissett9396]

I noticed, it was about a woman...

[@billjackson1317]

Actually Jimi got discovered by Linda Keith ,Keith Richards girl at the time, and let Jimi use one of Keith's strats to audition 4 Chas Chandler, and later had a thing with her. I think Jimi felt kinda uneasy & shy being asked if he'd seen. Linda 😎

[@gorgeoushammer]

Jerry Garcia seems like such a cool, humble, fun guy. Jagger on the other hand....

[@RollingOrmond]

One's a braindead doper. Mick an economic genius. Oh well.

[@jimlamanna9712]

gorgeoushammer Jagger is a insecure bisexual douchebag with a limited vocal range. He held onto Keith very tightly, knowing where the talent was at

[@christopher19894]

@@jimlamanna9712 You're acting like Jagger is an opera singer who couldn't cut it. He sang the blues and rock. His range isn't that important because he has an awesome timbre and then he topped it off with his commanding frontman attitude. The frontman vibe is VITAL. Keith Richards is decent on his own, but Jagger completes him, and they both need each other equally. It's the same situation with Oasis. Noel is an awesome writer, but he severely lacks the frontman qualities that Liam provides effortlessly.

It was essential to have the somewhat older and more grounded Watts, Stewart and Wyman in the band, with that kind of fame. It surely isn't only a matter of musical talent / chemistry that keeps a band going, but also the right mix of personalities.

Was Bill Wyman grounded?

[@Dylanbeee]

@@t-bo-lesotho I think he never did drugs, just women. So probably not too grounded, but ever stones Autobiography I read pretty much all say Charlie was very honourable

The image is flipped, at 0:35 you see someone tuning their Gibson ES335 and the "Gibson" Logo on the headstock is backward. He is actually playing a right handed SG strung right handed upside down.

I love how Jimi is playing righthanded! But I saw a video where Bill Kreutsmann was on the other side of jerry, so this version might be flipped in post-editing software.

[@georgestevens1502]

Ya, that's what I was thinking too. First, I thought Hendrux playing right handed?!! Then, must be a flipped imaging. Can't believe so few comments about it.

[@danielgolus4600]

The first minute of this video (rehearsal room) may not be Altamont-related. But from 1:16 and after, yes. They're in San Francisco waiting for the helicopter ride to the Altamont concert site.

[@adc2327]

My friends went to Altamont and they called me to see if I wanted to go. This was before voicemail and answering machines had been invented. Of all days my father wanted us to go to brunch. We never went anywhere. The next day I found out they went and they tried to call me. There were so many people and they were so far back but they really didn't see all of the bad things that went on. They had to watch it on the news just like all the rest of us.
