Hello!My name is Makoto Mizuno.

THE ROLLING STONES

The Rolling Stones are an English band whose blues, rhythm and blues and rock and roll-infused music became popular during the "British Invasion" in the early 1960s. The band was formed in London in 1962 by Brian Jones, and eventually was led by the songwriting partnership of singer Mick Jagger and guitarist Keith Richards. The Stones' image of unkempt and surly youth is one many musicians still emulate. During their 1969 American tour, the Stones were introduced and have often since been referred to as "The Greatest Rock and Roll Band in the World." The band have released 55 albums of original work and compilations, and have had 37 top-10 singles. In 1989 the Rolling Stones were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and in 2004 The Rolling Stones were ranked #4 in Rolling Stone Magazine's 100 Greatest Artists of All Time. They have sold over 200 million albums worldwide.
Keith Richards and Mick Jagger were classmates at Dartford Maypole County Primary School. In 1960, the two became reacquainted while Richards was attending the Sidcup Art College and Jagger was a student at the London School of Economics. With mutual friend Dick Taylor (later of Pretty Things), they formed the band Little Boy Blue and the Blue Boys. Stones founders Brian Jones and pianist Ian Stewart were also active in the nascent London R & B scene; Jones played with the Ramrods and Blues Inc., a band that featured Jagger, Richards and future Stones drummer Charlie Watts. In June 1962 the Stones lineup was Jagger, Richards, Stewart, Jones, Taylor, and drummer Tony Chapman. Taylor left the group, which renamed itself The Rolling Stones, after a Muddy Waters song.
On 12 July 1962 the group played its first gig at the Marquee club in London, billed as "The Rollin' Stones". Line-up was Jagger, Richards, Brian Jones, Ian Stewart on piano, Taylor on bass and Tony Chapman on drums. Jones intended the band to play primarily Chicago Blues, but Jagger and Richards brought the Rock n' Roll of Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley. After shifting formations Bassist Bill Wyman and Drummer Charlie Watts became the Stones' long standing rhythm section.
Despite Brian Jones' sudden death, the Hyde Park concert went ahead in front of an audience of 200,000 fans. The band's performance was captured by a Granada Television production team, later to be shown on British television as Stones in the Park. The band had just released the first recording with the new lineup, "Honky Tonk Women". It was released on 3 July 1969, coinciding with the death of Jones, and remains the band's last number 1 single in the UK. Let It Bleed followed in December and was rapidly hailed as another classic, featuring the "Gimme Shelter", "You Can't Always Get What You Want", "Midnight Rambler", and Robert Johnson's "Love in Vain".
Thank you.
