Title: Re: October 17 2021: Happy 60th !!! Post by Rev 20 Redlights on Oct 4th, 2021 at 3:38am via ultimate classic rock: Jagger was holding records, Richards was carrying his guitar and the two struck up a conversation about rock and blues on the train. On the way, Richards learned that Jagger had ordered the Chuck and Muddy albums directly from Chicago’s Chess Records, as they were unavailable in England. Excited by their talk, and wanting to hear the LPs, Richards invited Jagger over for tea that afternoon. Following the listening session, the budding singer invited the amateur guitarist to join his band, Little Boy Blue and the Blue Boys Little Boy Blue & The Blue Boys "a rose by any other name would smell as sweet" Mike Jagger, Keith Richards, Bob Beckwith, Allen Etherington, Dick Taylor... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujatJ2yYfdM As to the importance of the oct 61 date, the best testimony we have is of course keith's letter to his aunt patty... "You know I was keen on Chuck Berry and I thought I was the only fan for miles but one mornin' on Dartford Stn. (that's so I don't have to write a long word like station) I was holding one of Chuck's records when a guy I knew at primary school 7-11 yrs y'know came up to me. He's got every record Chuck Berry ever made. He is called Mick Jagger and the greatest R&B singer this side of the Atlantic and I don't mean maybe. I play guitar (electric) Chuck style we got us a bass player and drummer and rhythm-guitar and we practice 2 or 3 nights a week. SWINGIN'." |

1) Kent Online asked the same question 10 years ago, and apparently never
got an answer... Are you in this school picture with the two lads who went on to be global rock superstars? Or maybe you are on the register alongside Michael Phillip Jagger and Keith Richards. What happened to Robert Pyman, sandwiched on the list of names between the legends who became known as 'Mick n Keef? Phone the newsdesk on 01474 564327 or email [email protected]. 2) We do know that coming between Mick and Keith is never advisable. I mean, y'know, Brian Jones... 3) Staff at Wentworth Primary say the grounds remain a beacon for keen tourists on the hunt for information about the legendary band. Deputy head teacher Paul Langridge said: "It is a great talking point for the school that we have two international superstars who sat on the same hall floor that the children do today. We have had Japanese, American and German visitors come and take pictures and film so it's nice that our school in Kent has become an attraction. We do use the stories of Sir Mick and Keith as a source of inspiration for the children and tell them you can achieve like they did." |

Title: Re: October 17 2021: Happy 60th !!! Post by Rev 20 Redlights on Oct 7th, 2021 at 2:08am Because Bill Wyman complained about the wording on the Dartford plaque... ...a new, more appropriate, more historically accurate plaque has been installed Of course this is just a placeholder until fabrication of The Colossi of Freedom is completed in Steeltown USA (Columbus OH). The huge pieces will travel by rail to Philadelphia where they will be loaded onto the deck of the nuclear carrier USS Hillary Clinton for transport to, and assembly in, Dartford. The finished statue(s) will stand in excess of 400 feet tall, a heartfelt gift from the people of the USA to their dear friends, the people of the UK. (artist's conception, not to scale) |

BBC report (from ten years ago):
On the morning of 17 October 1961, Mick Jagger, then 18, arrived on platform 2 of Dartford Station to travel to the London School of Economics where he was studying. Shortly afterwards, 17-year-old Keith Richards arrived on the same platform. He was on his way to Sidcup Art College, carrying his hollow-bodied Höfner cutaway electric guitar. Mike Still, assistant manager of Dartford Museum, has researched this famous encounter. He said Jagger was holding some of his prized blues records and the two teenagers recognised each other as they had both attended Wentworth Primary School in the town. A conversation about music began which continued on the train and led to Richards joining the group Jagger fronted called Little Boy Blue and the Blue Boys. That meeting at Dartford train station is believed to be one of the most important moments in the foundation of The Rolling Stones... Mr Still said Stones fans come to Dartford to re-visit the famous meeting and trace the roots of the Stones. "People do visit Dartford purely for the connection, I know that for a fact," he said. "People come into the museum asking about that." found on Discogs, but not really the Blue Boys, just an attempt to market an early Stones track with a nice photo |

excerpted from The Independent (UK)
https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/music/reviews/rolling-stones-review-live-la-b1939551.html#4qRRr The Rolling Stones review, Los Angeles: How is it possible that they’re still in their prime? A full six decades after Mick Jagger and Keith Richards first laid eyes on each other... Jagger and Richards, as any student of rock mythology can tell you, met on a platform at Dartford Station on the morning of 17 October 1961. Their next show at the SoFi Stadium, on Sunday night (17 October) will mark exactly 60 years of the prototypical rock partnership. Their diamond anniversary. Few marriages last this long, and even fewer bands. Throughout their turbulent relationship, Jagger and Richards have fought, feuded, sniped and publicly made fun of each other’s genitalia, but somehow they’ve always come back to each other. What’s even more remarkable is that by tonight’s evidence, impossibly, they’re still at the top of their game. On the occasion of their 60th, with lots of love, a digital painting based on an uncredited newspaper photo |

Onstage in Los Angeles, Oct 17 2021 As i was saying to Keith earlier, someone said to me that, sixty years ago, to this very day, Keith and I met each other on the train station at Dartford (*cheers*) We knew each other before, had gone to school together, but hadn't seen each other for a while, so that was our re-meeting... |

Title: Re: October 17 2021: Happy 60th !!! Post by Rev 20 Redlights on Nov 17th, 2021 at 6:15pm Imagine trying to create a single image that miraculously encapsulated the entire 60-year history of the Rolling Stones. All the personalities that created the music and image both, all in proper pose and position Of course this is absolutely beyond the imagination of any organic or AI-enhanced being Yet you were witness to such a miracle yesterday, when Almighty God made such a glorious vision known through His grace, through revelation. 50% Beggar's Banquet (5 primates) + 50% Last Supper (13 primates) = 18 primates divided by 2 = Beggars Supper (9 primates) Imagine my surprise when in a flash it was all revealed to me... I said, imagine my surprise... this photo was also revealed yesterday, by Business Insider India, as the 2021 winner of their "comical wildlife" photo competition |
