By the time the Rolling Stones began calling themselves the World's
Greatest Rock & Roll Band in the late '60s, they had already staked
out an impressive claim on the title. As the self-consciously dangerous
alternative to the bouncy Merseybeat of the Beatles in theInvasion, the
Stones had pioneered the gritty, hard-driving blues-based rock &
roll that came to define hard rock. With his preening machismo and
latent maliciousness, Mick Jagger became the prototypical rock frontman,
tempering his macho showmanship with a detached, campy irony while
Keith Richards and Brian Jones wrote the blueprint for sinewy,
interlocking rhythm guitars. Backed by the strong yet subtly swinging
rhythm section of bassist Bill Wyman and drummer Charlie Watts, the
Stones became the breakout band of theblues scene, eclipsing such
contemporaries as the Animals and Them. Over the course of their career,
the Stones never really abandoned blues, but as soon as they reached po
 rity
in the U.K., they began experimenting musically, incorporating thepop
of contemporaries like the Beatles, Kinks, and Who into their sound.
After a brief dalliance with psychedelia, the Stones re-emerged in the
late '60s as a jaded, blues-soaked hard rock quintet. The Stones always
flirted with the seedy side of rock & roll, but as the hippie dream
began to
break apart, they exposed and reveled in the new rock culture. It wasn't
without difficulty, of course. Shortly after he was fired from the
group, Jones was found dead in a swimming pool, while at a 1969 free
concert at Altamont, a concertgoer was brutally killed during the
Stones' show. But the Stones never stopped going. For the next 30 years,
they continued to record and perform, and while their records weren't
always blockbusters, they were never less than the most visible band of
their era -- certainly, none of theirpeers continued to be as por or productive as the Stones. And no band since has proven to have such a broad fan base or far-reaching pority,
and it is impossible to hear any of the groups that followed them
without detecting some sort of influence, whether it was musical or
aesthetic.
