Wyman retired from the band in 1993, and his replacement Darryl Jones is not a full member.
His immediate replacement Mick Taylor stayed with the band until 1974, and was replaced by Ronnie Wood. Three weeks after his departure, Jones drowned. By 1969 Jones\' diminishing contributions to the band and his inability to tour the United States for legal and health reasons led to him leaving the band. Jones initially led the band, but after teaming as songwriters, Jagger and Richards assumed leadership. Critic and musicologist Robert Palmer, says the Rolling Stones\'s endurance and relevance is a result of being \"rooted in traditional verities, in rhythm-and-blues and soul music\", while \"more ephemeral pop fashions have come and gone\". R&B and blues cover songs dominated the Rolling Stones\' early material, but their repertoire has always included rock and roll. The Rolling Stones raised the international regard for the primitive blues typified by Chess Records\' artists such as Muddy Waters, who wrote the song Rollin\' Stone after which the band is named. Bassist Bill Wyman and drummer Charlie Watts completed the early line-up. The Rolling Stones are an English rock band, formed in London in April 1962 by Brian Jones (guitar, harmonica), Ian Stewart (piano), Mick Jagger (lead vocals, harmonica, guitar) and Keith Richards (guitar, vocals).
