Biography
British musician, a founder of The Rolling Stones. Jones played many instruments, having learned to play piano and clarinet early on.
Jones developed a reputation as a ladies' man even as a teenager. In 1959, he fled England because of gossip and pressure from the parents of a pregnant 14-year old girl. He went to Scandinavia for a time, returning to England late that year, when he joined a group called the Ramrods.
He left for London in 1962, after several relationships with women, including marriage and two children. In London he began to hang out at the Ealing Club where he met other musicians including Michael Phillip Jagger who introduced Brian to Keith Richards. By 1963, the Rolling Stones had formed.
By 1967, his contributions to the band were affected by his battle with drugs and alcohol and deteriorating mental health.
He was found dead in his swimming pool on July 3, 1969, London. The coroner ruled that he probably had had an asthma attack while swimming.
