Hi All:

Please read article below which I found when I googled Brian Jones owns Rolling Stones name. The story is below from "The Dailymail" Newspaper dated on July 6th, 2013. This is new information... let me know what you think. Once again the Authorities are trying to put a hush hush on this. Also, when I reviewed the comments section (below the story) people are no longer allowed to make comments on this article or story.

All the best,

George

Mick Jagger and Keith Richards had a blazing row with their former Rolling Stones bandmate Brian Jones on the day he died, culminating in Richards drawing a knife, according to an extraordinary claim made to police.


In a bizarre twist in the mystery, The Mail on Sunday has seen documents in which the daughter of the man now thought to have been involved in Jones’s death claims that the Stones’ former guitarist was confronted at his East Sussex home by Jagger and Richards over who owned the rights to the group’s name.

Back again: This was the first time the Rolling Stones played Hyde Park since their concert 44 years ago, two days after Brian Jones was found dead

Hours later Jones was found dead in his swimming pool.

The unsubstantiated claims, contained in an internal police report, were dismissed by officers, but will add further fuel to the conspiracy theories that surround Jones’s death in 1969 and question whether he really did drown under the influence of drink and drugs.

The allegation comes after the Stones played in front of 65,000 fans at London’s Hyde Park last night, re-enacting the emotive tribute they gave for Jones at the same venue 44 years ago.


Last night’s concert was the first time the Stones have played at the park since their requiem for Jones two days after he was found dead.


The source of the claim is Jan Bell, the daughter of Frank Thorogood, Jones’s builder-cum-minder who was present at Jones’s farm on the night of his death.


Thorogood died in 1993. A year later, it was claimed that he had murdered Jones.


Sussex Police appealed on TV for information and Bell telephoned them about the alleged incident.

Her father told her that he intervened in the row between Jones and Richards, she claimed.


Titled ‘Briefing Note: Death of Brian Jones’, the police report states: ‘She said that her father had told her a number of years ago that on the day of Brian’s death, Messrs Mick JAGGER and Keith RICHARDS visited Brian JONES at the farm in the morning and her father was present when Brian was asked by both men whether he would give up the name of the “Rolling Stones” to them and agree to a financial settlement.


‘Brian apparently declined to do so and it is alleged that Keith RICHARDS drew a knife. It is suggested that THOROGOOD calmed them down and both JAGGER and RICHARDS left the house.’
Brian Jones started and named The Rolling Stones in 1962.


Last night, a Rolling Stones spokesman declined to comment on the claim. After the report was written, no further action was taken because a senior officer in Sussex Police intervened to block standard investigating procedures, it is alleged.


The Mail on Sunday has traced the police officer who interviewed Jan Bell.


The officer, who did not want to be named, said: ‘I arranged to meet lawyers representing Mick Jagger and Keith Richards – two firms, one in New York and one in Los Angeles – to talk specifically about Jan Bell’s statement to Sussex Police, about them being at the house on the day of the death and about the knife being drawn.
