Brian Jones, born Lewis Brian Hopkin-Jones in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, England, (28 February 1942 – 3 July 1969, Hartfield, Sussex, England) was a founding member, lead guitarist and backing singer in the British rock group The Rolling Stones. He was also known for his multi-instrumental skills, fashionable mod image, drug and sexual excesses, and his early, mysterious death at age 27.
Throughout his career Jones showed a musical aptitude, having the ability to play a myriad of instruments, due to his training on the piano and clarinet in his youth. As the 1960's went on, Jones soon started experimenting with different wind and stringed instruments. Throughout his years with the band he played guitar, slide guitar, piano, sitar, tamboura, organ, dulcimer, mellotron, xylophone, marimba, recorder, clarinet and several other instruments. In total he is known to have played at least 15 instruments with the Stones.....this colourful limited edition print is a tribute to this legendary figure.
