I love the Rolling Stones' music. I can't believe they formed in London as long ago as 1962!
I'm not very familiar with any of their music.
They're a 60s rock band. They practically led the British band invasion of the US in the early sixties and were really into rebellion and counterculture.
What songs did they sing that are well known?
They sang Brown Sugar, Jumpin' Jack Flash, Satisfaction and a host of other great songs.
I would probably recognize them if I heard them.
The Rolling Stones
The Rolling Stones are an English rock band formed in London in 1962. The first stable line-up consisted of bandleader Brian Jones (guitar, harmonica, keyboards), Mick Jagger (lead vocals, harmonica), Keith Richards (guitar, vocals), Bill Wyman (bass), Charlie Watts (drums), and Ian Stewart (piano). Stewart was removed from the official line-up in 1963 but continued to work with the band as a contracted musician until his death in 1985
The Beau Brummels were fans of these acts as well as The Rolling Stones and The Searchers, and originally patterned their overall style after the British Invasion sound.
The melancholy, minor keys of debut single "Laugh, Laugh" led many listeners to mistakenly believe that the band were indeed British.
As the band evolved, they incorporated different music genres into their works, ranging from hard rock to country and western to rhythm and blues.
The "Triangle" album exhibited the band's growing interest in country music
