He left before they recorded any material...so..no he should not be there.
Why not get all the random guest drummers that played before Charlie joined too??

No there is a difference Dick Taylor was really a memberr of the band and they had only rotating drummers because they couldn't find a staedy one, but Dick Taylor was really a Rolling Stone playing at ALL their 1962 gigs and they did record "Don't Judge a Book by Looking at it's Cover" with Dick Taylor in 1962.

I'm afraid the casual fan would get confused between Mick Taylor and Dick Taylor, so it's a no no...

Or Jason Todd, or Tim Drake, or Stephanie Brown, or Damien Wayne, or Carrie Kelly...

Maybe I am wrong but to me The Rolling Stones are/were the five members of the band when their first recordings were released plus Taylor and Wood. I don't think even the band thinks of Dick Taylor as a former Rolling Stone.

So basically Stu was never a Rolling Stone? And they weren't the Rolling Stones for those 100-odd gigs they played before June 1963 when they worked hard to build up the fanbase who bought their first record?

To the average fan, he basically wasn't -- and they weren't. Same for Bobby Keys, Jim Price, Billy Preston, and Chuck L & Blondie today.
Of course, most people on this board are slightly more avid than average. To say nothing of someone like yourself who is a walking wikipedia on the Stones.

There is more than 1 way to look at this. I'm sure if you'd ask Keith, (or me for that matter) he'd say, "Hell yes, Stu is a Rolling Stone!". But, was he compensated equally as such?

Then why are they celebrating a 50th anniversary tour in 2012?
The other people you mention never WERE Rolling Stones and weren't instrumental in forming the band. There's quite a difference, in fairness.

That's Dick Taylor in the photo beside Keith, looking old enough to be Keith's uncle.
