So what if Elmore James had never existed, would we still have had The Rolling Stones?

"To me, Chuck Berry always was the epitome of rhythm and blues playing, rock and roll playing. It was beautiful, effortless, and his timing was perfection. He is rhythm supreme. He plays that lovely double-string stuff, which I got down a long time ago, but I'm still getting the hang of. Later I realized why he played that way--because of the sheer physical size of the guy. I mean, he makes one of those big Gibsons look like a ukulele!"

Elmore James also influenced many rock guitarists such as The Rolling Stones (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/The_Rolling_Stones)' Brian Jones (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/Brian_Jones) (Keith Richards (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/Keith_Richards) wrote in his book that at the time he met Brian Jones, Brian called himself Elmo Lewis, and that he wanted to be Elmore James), Canned Heat (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/Canned_Heat)'s Alan Wilson (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/Alan_Wilson) and Fleetwood Mac (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/Fleetwood_Mac)'s Jeremy Spencer (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/Jeremy_Spencer). John Mayall included



Chuck Berry was a minor influense on Keith Richards but who put the band together? Jones was obsessed with Elmore James, now who was the leader of the band?

Stone Alone by Bill Wyman

"I discovered Elmore James" said Brian later, "and the earth seemed to shutter on it's axis" So moved was he by James ability to bare his soul through music. So on returning home Brian went out an bought an electric guitar, so obessed with the blues, he sat for hours listening to any records he could find by Elmore James.

I'll go slow....

Brian Jones formed the band, ok ya with me? He was totally/completely obsessed with Elmore James. Even called himself Elmo. Now since Brian Jones was a huge blues fan and worshipped Elmore James I'll ask you again....if not for Elmore James do we have The Rolling Stones.....now think little one, ok?

I think a Brian Jones Elmore James cover band without Keith and a totally different rhythm section would have probably failed, but the Stones probably would have figured it out anyway.

Elmore James may have been an initial influence, but ongoing, not so much. Specially since Jones went swimming with the fishes.

Brian Jones is the guy who got the band together, he wanted a blues band because of his obsession with the music and in particular....Elmore James.

Elmore James woke Jones up to the music, Jones made it very clear that after listening to Elmore everything changed for him. Turned his musical life around.

Sure and even Johnny Cash, James Brown, Louis Armstrong, Tennessee Ernie Ford. But it was Elmore James who was the huge influense on Brian Jones and why he wanted a blues band.
