He played with Delany and Bonnie and friends, right? I think there was a period when he was kinda aimless. Now he enjoys being a sideman as much as a soloist.

Now this is just sick. I found a website called www.brianjonesfc.com. They are selling tiles from the Cotchford Farm pool where Brian drowned. That's just wrong!

"I think there was a period when he was kinda aimless"

Yep! Because he was extremely disillusioned. He wanted to always remain true to his blues/rock roots but all of his bands, despite his best efforts, kept migrating towards the latest pop trend(even Cream unfortunately).

Thankfully he always left before the band actually arrived at that point.

Agreed Dane. We need more of us, like minded individuals, not less.

For that reason I always considered The Borg to be a great institution founded on equality and with a single minded purpose. "You shall be assimilated". What a great line..........Hmmm.

Maybe Peter needs a new category: "The Curmudgeons Corner"...I feel for the kids who have to wade through our nonsense just to ask what Ric-O-Sound is...
