  • Art Dealer for Celebrity Artists Goes to Prison After Swindling His A-List Clients for Nearly 30 Years
    AiA Art News-service Art Dealer for Celebrity Artists Goes to Prison After Swindling His A-List Clients for Nearly 30 Years Jonathan Poole was a dealer for high-profile clients that included musicians Miles Davis, John Lennon, and the Rolling Stones' Ronnie Wood. Sarah Cascone, Jonathan Poole. Courtesy of Jonathan Poole. It’s four years behind bars for British art dealer Jonathan Poole, who pled guilty to 26 charges of fraud and theft. The 69 -year-old, who specialized in selling artwork for celebrity musicians, confessed to stealing both art and money from his high - profile clients for nearly three decades, between 1986 and 2013. Among Poole’s notable victims was Ronnie Wood, guitarist for the Rolling Stones and a prolific painter who studied at London’s Ealing Art College and will publish a book, Ronnie Wood: Artist, next month. Poole poached a number of Wood’s portraits, featuring fellow celebrities such as Stones frontman Mick Jagger, musicians Bob Dylan, and Ringo Starr, and actress Marilyn Monroe, according to Reuters, Rolling Stones British guitarist Ronnie Wood poses in front of his painting called A Study of Carlos and Darcey Rehearsing in 2008.

MUSIC – Muddy Waters, Rollin’ Stone via Spotify (Play 30secs then turn down) It all started with Muddy Waters. A chance meeting between 2 old friends at Dartford railway station marked the beginning of 50 years of rock and roll. In the early 1950s, Keith Richards and Mick Jagger were childhood friends and classmates at Wentworth Primary School in Kent until their families moved apart.[8] In 1960, the pair met again on their way to college at Dartford railway station. The Chuck Berry and Muddy Waters records that Jagger carried revealed a mutual interest. They began forming a band with Dick Taylor and Brian Jones from Blues Incorporated. This band also contained two other future members of the Rolling Stones: Ian Stewart and Charlie Watts.[11] So how did the name come about? Well according to Richards, Jones christened the band during a phone call to Jazz News.

  • Emotional Rescue This Was Not an Album Cover That People Loved. Fan
    Emotional Rescue This was not an album cover that people loved. Fan reaction was typified by comments like, “this messy cover,” “It may have the single ugliest cover artwork of any record ever released by a major rock artist,” “I still hate the album cover,” “It's butt-ugly,” “I hate the cover,” “The cover is a big part of its poor reception.” “The sleeve was a big let-down after Some Girls, also the waste of time poster included,” “Yeah, I hated the cover…I like covers that show the band...like Black and Blue,” “I can't defend the thermal photography, or whatever it is, that adorns the cover of Emotional Rescue - was Mick on heroin when he signed off on this concept?” "Everyone to his own taste," the old woman said when she kissed her cow. It seems the Stones may have kissed a cow on this album cover. The Title You can always name it after a song on the album. That worked for Let It Bleed, It’s Only Rock and Roll and Some Girls. There were a lot of songs left over from the Some Girls sessions so this album began life with cynical working titles like Certain Women a clear play on the Some Girls title and More Fast Ones an obvious allusion to the pace of the contents. As the album began to take shape it took on the working title of Saturday Where The Boys Meet, a bit of a theme from the song “Where the Boys Go,” which appeared on the album.

    Gary James' Interview With Bernie Bollendorf Of The Rolling Stones Tribute The Glimmer Twins Ads by Google The Rolling Stones Keith Richards New Songs and Lyrics The Band Music The Glimmer Twins. Now there's a name that sounds familiar. It was given to Rolling Stones members Mick Jagger and Keith Richards. It also happens to be the name of the Rolling Stones Tribute Act, The Glimmer Twins. Bernie Bollendorf, who portrays Keith Richards in The Glimmer Twins, talked to us about his group. Q - Bernie, one thing I've noticed is that most Stones tribute acts include a Mick Taylor guitarist, not a Brian Jones guitarist. Only The Chesterfield Kings had a Brian Jones guy. Now, why is that? A - Mick Taylor was the most versatile guitar player they had. That's when they hit their stride, with Mick Taylor. He brought a different element to the band. This fabulous Blues lead guitar player that they had never had before. Brian Jones was a multi-talented instrumentalist, but Mick Taylor, like Ron Woods, was like a breath of fresh air. Mick Taylor, fabulous player, but looked like a microphone stand onstage. Ron Wood comes in, not as versatile, but a great player and he's jumpin' all over the stage, jumpin' on Jagger's back. A whole new life. Mick never really interacted with Keith onstage. Keith had his back to the crowd. He was tryin' to stand up the whole show. (laughs). Q - Are you one of those guys that tries to learn everything you can about Keith Richards? When his autobiography came out, did you run to the store to buy it? A - My girlfriend bought it for me.

  • Andrew Loog Oldham by Rob Bowman As the Rolling Stones’ Manager and Producer, He Played a Seminal Role in the Creation of Modern Rock & Roll
    Andrew Loog Oldham By Rob Bowman As the Rolling Stones’ manager and producer, he played a seminal role in the creation of modern rock & roll. IN 1965, TOM WOLFE FAMOUSLY DUBBED PHIL SPECTOR America’s first tycoon of teen. Great Britain in the 1960s had its own version with Andrew Loog Oldham. Similarly eccentric, Oldham sported a one-of-a-kind mix of flamboyance, fashion, attitude, chutz­ pah, vision, and business smarts. As comanager of the Rolling Stones from May 1963 to September 1967, and founder and co-owner of Im­ mediate Records from 1965 to 1970, he helped shape the future of rock, and certainly turned the music industry in the United Kingdom on its head. Along the way, between the ages of 19 and 23, he pro­ duced some of the greatest records in rock & roll history, leading Bill­ board to describe him as one of the top five producers in the world, and Cashbox to declare him a musical giant. ^ He was born in Lon­ don on January 29, 1944, during the Germans’ nightly bombard­ ment of England. His father, whom he never met, was Texas airman Andrew Loog, killed in June 1943 when his B-17 bomber was shot down over France. Raised by his mother, Celia Oldham, the preco­ cious teenager began working for Mary Quant during the day, at Ronnie Scott’s jazz club in the evening, and at the fabled Flamingo club after midnight. He also found time to form a (short-lived) pub­ lic relations firm with Pete Meaden, the future manager of the Who.
