Talk:Ian Stewart (musician)

message: Ian Stewart did not leave "the group before they became famous". He was asked to stay out of pictures, etc. because Andrew Loog Oldham thought he was too ugly. However he toured and played with the Stones just about up to his death.
:He actually was kicked out of the band due to Oldham's influence, but he stayed on as tour manager and session and tour musician.  Stick to the Facts 09:24, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: I'll take a closer look at it to see - it is entirely possible.  You can catch a number of glimpses of him in Gimmie Shelter and the name "Stu" can be heard from time to time.  Stick to the Facts 09:22, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Rock & Roll Circus 

message: Mick Avory more than once has confirmed in person that he was only at the Bricklayers Pub twice to rehearse with the others AND that these two occasions were well before the date of July 12, 1962, the official birth of the band.
So he was not present during the Stones first performance at the Marquee Club on that date and never at any occasion after that date. Although there is no exact proof, realistically Tony Chapman is the only person that could have played the drums on that memorable evening. Any rumours as would Charlie Watts have been present that evening can be ignored, because he was out of the country for his job in advertisement business. - SO
:no one i ever heard of claims Charlie Watts was there on 12 july 62; can you provide a reference for Avory's statement that he wasn't the drummer that night? a citation from a reliable source would be great. thanks. Sssoul (talk) 16:07, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: regarding personal conversations with Avory: please see WP:NOR, WP:V, WP:RS and related wikipedia policies. and regarding Clayson quoting Dick Taylor, since it's obviously an error there's not much point in repeating it in this article. please also consider creating a wikipedia account - it would be easier to communicate with you that way.  thanks Sssoul (talk) 17:11, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

text: thanks - i've added the reference you provided.  you should raise this on the Mick Avory talk page as well - it's even more relevant there than it is here.  Sssoul (talk) 09:22, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Mick Avory vs Tony Chapman 

message: Aside from both having the same first name, both shunned the rock 'n' roll lifestyle and worked hard to keep unruly colleagues in hand. Notable?--MartinUK (talk) 12:26, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: it might be "notable enough", if there are any reliable sources that point it out. without sources to cite, though, it's original research and shouldn't be added to the article.  Sssoul (talk) 12:43, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

I note from the website that "It has no ISBN and is not available from high street or online bookstores" and is in an edition of 950 copies.
Do we think it suitable for inclusion? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 16:11, 2 September 2021 (UTC)
