Do you know who else was in the sing along? Did anyone film it?
So the harmonica played itself?
I wonder if it wasn't one thing but a lot of different things. Even we outsiders know that he kept extra gig money for himself without telling the others, fathered several children out of wedlock for whom he took no responsibility whatever, hit Anita, and later on only showed up for sessions sporadically, often in no condition to play. Whatever excuses one might be inclined to make for him, this behavior affected others negatively, and I think it's fair to assume that there was more along the same lines that we are not privy to, and that at some point some of the people around him came to dislike him.
Isn't this the same as one of those parts from A Degree of Murder?

Beautiful fat sound and great playing, right there in the pocket with Bill & Charlie!! It reminds us how much of the future "rock" version of the Stones was already there in the early Brian Jones days (which, to avoid misunderstandings, remains my favorite era of the band).

Is it true Brian went all the way to the Monterey Festival just to introduce Hendrix to the audience.And was there ever a thought of him playing at the concert
Yes, but he also treated it as a short holiday. No suggestion he had any intention of playing. He was part of a sing along jam backstage though.

As a follow up to my Rock and Roll Circus posts, here's two alternate takes of Parachute Woman and You Can't Always Get What You Want.
Brian played near enough the same exact guitar parts as he did for the officially released takes. I've added my 'essentials of' demonstrations as ear guides.
Parachute Woman
Brian's rhythm guitar becomes audible at about 58 seconds in to the recording.
Line up:
Brian Jones - rhythm guitar
Mick Jagger - vocals
Keith Richards - guitar (main riff, fills & solos)
Bill Wyman - bass guitar
Charlie Watts - drums
Nicky Hopkins - piano
Rocky Dzidzornu - maracas
Demonstration showing the essentials of Brian's guitar part:
You Can't Always Get What You Want
Mick plays acoustic guitar, which seems to distract him from his vocals a bit. Brian's basic part comes in at about 1 minute when they go to the D chord.
Line up:
Brian Jones - rhythm guitar
Mick Jagger - vocals & acoustic guitar
Keith Richards - guitar (main riff, fills and solos)
Bill Wyman - bass guitar
Charlie Watts - drums
Nicky Hopkins - piano
Rocky Dzidzornu - congas

What or what did Brian do to piss them off so much? Love to know but no one speaks specifics. Whatever it was it seems cumulative and kept happening and caused estrangement. Dr. Jeckyll and Mr. Jones.

Brian Jones played on every Rolling Stones record from the 1960s
Brian started The Rolling Stones, he put the group together and named the band The Rolling Stones.
No matter how many times those two divas try to rewrite history that is what happened.
His multi instrumentalist ability defined the 1960s Stones. If not for that they would have been lost and looked like a dated RnB club band in a world that had gone next level.
George Harrison was playing a sitar,Brian learned it.could Mick have done that? ,Keith?
He’ll never get credit for using all his talents keeping the band relevant in a world that by the mid sixties had moved far beyond basic rock and RnB.
But let’s keep repeating stories of him too high to play, and showing up out of his mind in the studio because we know he’s the only one who ever did that right?

Does anyone have any interviews where Brian talks about the dulcimer other than the Beat Instrumental article from 1966?

Jones & Aldred
An excerpt of a song Brian wrote with Ready Steady Go! presenter Michael Aldred.
Audio description: We seemingly hear Brian talking and swearing at the start, followed by Brian playing 12 string acoustic guitar with Michael singing. Michael is then heard talking at the end.
Isn't this the same as one of those parts from A Degree of Murder?

The Rolling Stones - Hi-Heel Sneakers - Live at Kurhaus of Scheveningen, The Hague, Netherlands - 8th August 1964.
Note, due to where the person with the mic was standing at this point of the concert, this is essentially a live 'isolation' of Brian's guitar playing, with Keith's lead playing being mostly way down in volume on the recording.
Beautiful fat sound and great playing, right there in the pocket with Bill & Charlie!! It reminds us how much of the future "rock" version of the Stones was already there in the early Brian Jones days (which, to avoid misunderstandings, remains my favorite era of the band).

The Jones and Alred was recorded when? If it was after the Stones, it sounds dated.

Most importantly he was important as the others in creating The Rolling Stones “sound”.

On Street Fighting Man is Brian playing only the tanpura, which makes the twangy drone or is he also playing a strumming instrument like an autoharp .And why didn’t he play the shehnai at the outro instead of Dave Mason since he was the reed instrument player in the band

No autoharp.

Thanks Majesty for that great upload of SFM right/left. What an insane track! The drone! It's one of those performances where I don't even know where to look - everyone firing on all cylinders.
PS This actually rivals 'Tomorrow Never Knows'.
