It was on platform 2 of Dartford station on October 17, 1961 that a young Keith Richards spotted a young Mick Jagger with two blues albums under his arm and got talking to him about music. The pair joined musician Brian Jones's band half a year later after he placed an advertisement in Jazz News on May 2, 1962, inviting musicians to audition for a new R&B group at the Bricklayer's Arms pub. They shared an admiration of Muddy Waters and the band was named
The Rolling Stones after the American bluesman's "Rollin' Stone Blues."
