Ian
"Stu" Stewart- (1938-1985)--(member
of the Rolling
Stones
1961-1962, unofficial Stone
1962-1985) Born:
Pittenweem, Fife, Scotland Ian
Steward played keyboards and served as the road
manager for the Rolling Stones for nearly 24 years,
from the founding of the band in 1961 to his death
in 1985. He was often dubbed The
Sixth Stone. Despite being left off of the
"official" band membership lineup in 1962 due to
his "unsexy" appearance, Stewart was an integral
partner with the other Stones in developing the
music and in selecting the sounds the band
recorded. Among his best work for the Stones are
his keyboards on "Let It Bleed", "Brown
Sugar", "Dead Flowers", "Sweet
Virginia", "Honky Tonk Women", and the
covers of Chuck Berry's "Carol" and
"Little Queenie" from the live Get Yer
Ya-Ya's Out! album. Stewart
also performed session work with other bands, the
best known of which are the keyboards on Led
Zeppelin's singles, "Rock and Roll" and "Boogie
With Stu," with Stewart being the "Stu" in the
song's title that Led Zeppelin boogied
with. In the
late 1970s and early 1980s, Stewart formed a
traditional boogie-woogie jazz band called Rocket
88 with fellow Stone Charlie Watts on drums, Alexis
Korner on guitar, and Cream founder Jack Bruce on
acoustic bass. Stewart
died on December 12, 1985, of a heart attack while
sitting in his doctor's waiting room. "The History Guy" is a Registered Trademark. |
