The current line-up consists of Keith Richards (guitar, vocals), Mick Jagger (harmonica, lead vocals), bandleader Brian Jones (harmonica, keyboards, guitar), Charlie Watts (drums), and Ian Stewart (piano). On July 12, 1962, Taylor, Jones, Stewart, Jagger, and Richards played a gig at “Marquee Club” in London. It was their first gig that was billed as “The Rolling Stones.” Shortly after this performance, the band went on a UK tour. They called this tour a “training ground.”
Rolling Stones is recognized as Britain’s most popular group, rated by the two unscientific opinion polls in 1964, outranking the Beatles. The band signed Andrew Loog Oldham as their manager in May 1963. Decca Records gave the Rolling Stones a record deal contract along with flexible terms.
