I dunno about all of the above but this is what soon-to-be 81 year old (in July) Jagger is doing this summer (at freakin' high altitude) and I was there for it! Because I like it, like it, yes I do!

Wow, I had no idea that one of the Rolling Stones is black.

Technically and officially speaking, none of the Rolling Stones are black.

Then why did they allow a random person (who just happened to be black) to be on stage and play guitar with them?

Original Band with current band members in bold text:

Mick Jagger
Keith Richards

Brian Jones (replaced by Mick Taylor who was replaced by Ronnie Wood)
Bill Wyman (replaced by Darryl Jones--the black bass man you see in the video)
Charlie Watts (replaced by Steve Jordan on drums who is also black)

Today the Rolling Stones are considered to be Jagger, Richards, and Wood. All white.

Darryl Jones and Steve Jordan are considered part of their back up band along with keyboard players, horns, vocalists, percussionists and strings when used in concert.

Darryl Jones joined the band probably 30 years ago. I strongly believe that he should be considered an official Rolling Stone because he's done nearly as much time in the band as Ronnie Wood who I think is has been a Stone for 50+ years.

Steve Jordan stepped in for Charlie Watts (RIP) and apparently has a history of playing with the band members in different venues over the years.

I think if they're out there in front and the Stones couldn't do without them, then they should ALL be considered official Rolling Stones just like the original 5 piece band they started with.

But I'm not Jagger who arranges the business dealings and contractual matters of the Stones. If you're interested, you should check out their wiki and see the innovations they introduced into the world of Rock music over the decades including management under the direction of Jagger.

Short answer to your question: It's complicated, Harry. ;)

Charlie Watts is deceased. If you're going to try to attempt humor try not to be so sloppy. :roll:

Then let us know when you are out doing this at 80 years old.
