Origins of the Rolling Stones
In 1961, a serendipitous meeting between childhood friends Mick Jagger and Keith Richards at a railway station set the stage for the formation of the Rolling Stones. Their shared interest in rhythm and blues led them to collaborate with multi-instrumentalist Brian Jones and other musicians, completing the lineup that would revolutionize rock. The band, whose name was inspired by a Muddy Waters song, gained early traction by performing in clubs across London, showcasing a raw and energetic style that captivated audiences. Their breakthrough came with a residency at the Crawdaddy Club, where manager Andrew Oldham helped craft their rebellious image, contrasting sharply with the clean-cut Beatles, thus solidifying their position in the British music invasion.
