I just love that "extra five pounds" bit with Keith (and Mick's) attitude and often unjust anger towards Brian.

They forget Brian was managing the band before Oldham. That should be 20% extra. Off the gross.

And of course Brian never got one dime of the millions, yes, millions of pounds they collected for writing the songs - even though they stole many of Brian's ideas. Like "The Last Time" lick, which was Brian's.

Yet Keith often says, "In most instances, I'll write the riff, and then give it to Jagger to finish it off". Curious why Keith claims the "Satisfaction" lick, which is the signature to that song, is part of the writing, yet the same principle doesn't apply (at least in HIS mind - and therefore to the publishers) to "The Last Time" - where BRIAN writes the riff.

I mean really, Keith, give it a rest. Admitting that Brian was a big part of the Stones really won't take anything away from your own personal stature. Your fans might even like you all the more.
