Steve Winwood and Spencer Davis Throw a Party For Brian Jones (March, 1966)

[@wyliesmith4244]

Just looking at the footage blows me away. Yet another illuminating episode in the 60s.

[@antarcticorb9197]

Fascinating...a little tear in the fabric of time enables us to experience the peculiar world of Brian Jones and friends...great job!

[@olgierdogden4742]

Sounds like the Brian Jones I remember trying many different things out that would help him climb the charts to the dizzy heights of another British band from “up north.” My eldest brother played with him, Charlie Watts and Alexis Korner to name but a few, and I still have a letter my brother wrote to my mother after Brian was found dead in his swimming pool which really saddened him at the time and it will stay as part of my heritage from a unique time in human civilisation.

I have to agree these videos are phenomenal the information is top shelf

[@electroman65]

Another great, informative video, thanks!! Always great footage in your clips!! H

[@raulmacias1311]

Brian played the Dulcimer on Lady Jane and I Am Waiting.

[@WhenHariMetKari]

I love Aftermath.

[@lozr3792]

This was really interesting and funny to listen to. Brian was quite a party man wasn't he? In a lot of ways he was overly curious, decadent and all that. I'd have loved to have met him, fascinating. Thanks for sharing it.

[@arlenmargolin4868]

I have the feeling there's a Brian Jones in every social click someone who just takes it a little too far some of them seem to hold their ground and some of them really having trouble maintaining reality and sobriety

[@PAULLONDEN]

Yeah ...but just like Keith Moon, all that decadence inevitably caught up with him to the point Lennon once stated "you'd dread to get a phone call from him ,which too often meant bad news. Now with the net and the availability of thousands of photographs you can plot his disintegration from year to year. Many of his post '67 images are a sad spectacle. On top of the world and he let it all slip through his fingers , while the rest of the band only grew stronger through all that 60's mayhem .

[@IMeMineWho]

@@PAULLONDEN Kind of ironic John making that judgment though given that his relationship with Yoko would lead him to heroin. Brian at least had an excuse according to a girlfriend and as I recall Donovan: he had physical issues that would result in frustration.

[@PAULLONDEN]

​@@IMeMineWho That's indeed true....Although Lennon himself being a bag of contradictions ,he seemingly became less of a train wreck and involving his acquaintances in his misery than unfortunate Brian. But then , John had "mother" to "take care" of him .........

[@waynecameron3343]

Wow that was excellent keep them coming

[@raulmacias1311]

I've sometimes wondered how much of an input Brian Jones had in the The Rolling Stones' "Nanker/Phelge" compositions. NANKER/PHELGE ~ "Anything credited to Nanker/Phelge refers to a Mick Jagger, Brian Jones, Keith Richards, Bill Wyman and Andrew Loog Oldham collaborative composition. NANKER/PHELGE Tracks ~ Stoned ~ '63 Little By Little ~ '64 2120 South Michigan Avenue ~ '64 Empty Heart ~ '64 Off The Hook ~ '65 Play With Fire ~ '65 The Spider And The Fly ~ '65 I'm Alright ~ '75 Paint It, Black ~ '66 Bill Wyman, in his book, has stated that Paint It, Black was a group collaborative effort and should have been credited to Nanker/Phelge. Interestingly, these songs were superior to the very early Jagger/Richards songs such as "Tell Me".

They did alot worse than tell me

[@calvinguile1315]

I love the characature of them at the beginning !..it would be a cool t shirt...

[@bipbippadotta2336]

I agree, it's great. The ones of Keith & Brian are my favourites and Charlie's side eye to Mick 😂 Miss you Charlie 💔

Scathing insight by Brian.

What a shame that Brian Jones couldn't write Pop/Rock songs!

[@theonlyantony]

hammer dulcimer ie not the same as an Appalachian dulcimer. The former is played with mallets or hammers and the later with a pick or quill

[@richardbanker3910]

I play dulcimer myself similar to the kind Brian played and you do press the frets slightly differently on your finger tips than guitar but his type of dulcimer doesn’t need hammers. This clip was taken when Brian was at the height of his powers sponging influences from all directions and Aftermath shows the giant steps he made. Taking a chance in punching through a glass pane.

BJ motivated the whole India phenomenon his influence weighing in on almost all of musicians of the era. Easy to think he was used to achieve the objective. A generation was robbed.

There were other things Jones took home from Australia ; like the kangaroo fur coat he wore on 'Between The Buttons'.

[@richardbanker3910]

He’d travelled from Australia to USA and then back to the UK which was a part contribution but Brian was living life to excess even though this was a rich period for his musical exploration. He sounds very sociable and considerate and obviously loved to party.

[@ericwinnert]

im a bit confused. Was the Spencer Davis group in Brian's house waiting for him, or did they come over when he go back? If they were in the house why did Brian have to smash the window, they could have just let him in.

[@mayasaunt]

They must have arrived shortly after him, and before Keith Altham joined their party.

[@noahh9472]

Did bob dylan and brian jones jam together ???

[@YesterdaysPapers]

According to several books, they jammed together in New York in 1965 on the day of the Great Blackout, when electric power went out in New York for a whole night.

[@margueritemazzeo2904]

[@wyliesmith4244]

Pretty sure that was November. If you can find the satellite photos before and after the blackout to see the US northeast blacked out. Living in Ohio then, we high school boys thought it was kinda cool - and funny as long as you weren't trapped in an elevator.@@YesterdaysPapers

A Dulcimer? If Brian had lived he would have made an interesting addition to Steeleye Span. Or maybe I'm losing my mind?

Had he and Jim Morrison hooked up they would have found their demises that same night.

I am quite sure that they smoked cannabis at that party.
