In the US, turmoil came in the form of the Civil Rights movement, violent and widespread protests over the Vietnam War, and, of course, Woodstock. The UK experienced equal uproars in the form of the bombing of Torrey Canyon, fierce battles over Britain's Balance of Trade, and the innovation of pirate radio. Upon this backdrop, a new era of music was born.

Birthed from the rebellion most young people felt so deeply at the time, new sounds stormed the scene. The sights changed, too, as bands became less 'boy next door' and more 'bad boys gone wild'. In the US, it was dubbed the British Invasion. The Beatles, The Kinks, The Animals, and, naturally, The Rolling Stones. Americans went gaga over everything British, from the bands to the clothes to the pop culture.

Other various musicians popped in and out of the Stones' universe, including 'the other Mick,' Mick Taylor (lead and bass guitar).

On tour, the band swells to include Chuck Leavell on keyboards, Bernard Fowler on percussion, Darryl Jones on bass guitar, Matt Clifford on keyboards and French horn, Tim Ries on sax, and Sasha Allen with some backup and co-lead vocals. Bill Wyman reminisces, '.We were the first pop group to break away from the whole Cliff Richard thing, where the bands did little dance steps, wore identical uniforms and had snappy patter.' Rock-n-roll wasn't cute, anymore. It was serious business. According to Wyman, their first US tour was disastrous, 'When we arrived, we didn't have a hit record [there] or anything going for us.'

That soon changed. The Rolling Stones' first taste of true international fame came in the summer of 1965 with their hit, '(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction'. They recorded it during their third tour of North America.

Their history with the police involving drug use opened with a bust at Keith Richard's home in 1967, which culminated with the arrest of Jagger and Richards. The duo were originally sentenced pretty severely -- three months for Jagger and a full year for Richards -- but those sentences were later tossed out. Both Jagger and Richards have been more forthcoming in recent years about their drug use, with Jagger's ex, supermodel Jerry Hall, claiming that he used heroine before they met, and Richards fessing up to spending most of the 1970's in a drug-induced haze.
