He was the first (blond) fallen angel of rock. By disappearing at the age of 27, drowned in his swimming pool on July 3, 1969, Brian Jones inaugurated the macabre list of rock's shooting stars: Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, Kurt Cobain, Amy Winehouse, all decimated at the same age by a too toxic lifestyle.
