The main man behind bringing up the Rolling Stone and raising them to fame was Brian Jones. He was believed to be the man behind it all, from their name to their members to the type of music. Brian Jones put an ad out in the Jazz News to recruit band members and soon he had auditions. Mick Jagger and Keith Richards became part of the band after auditioning for a part.
On June 8th 1969, original member of The Rolling Stones, Brian Jones left the group. One would not have expected him to leave the very own group he created, but with new members and their talent that expanded from songwriting to musical talent Brian Jones became overlooked.
While still being part of the Rolling Stones Brian Jones acquired a big drug problem, so by the time he left the group he had not contributed as much as he normally would have. Sadly a month later after leaving the group he was found dead in his home swimming pool in East Sussex.
