Mick Jagger

Sir '''Michael Philip "Mick" Jagger''' (born Mosquito ringtone July 26 Sabrina Martins 1943 in Nextel ringtones Dartford (town)/Dartford, Abbey Diaz Kent) is a Free ringtones United Kingdom/British Majo Mills Rock and roll/rock musician, actor, writer, composer, record and film producer and businessman. He is most famous for being the lead singer and co-founder (with guitarist Mosquito ringtone Brian Jones) of the British rock and roll band Sabrina Martins The Rolling Stones. He is also the songwriting partner of Stones guitarist Nextel ringtones Keith Richards and the pair have composed almost all the Rolling Stones' original material, as well as numerous songs for other arists including ''As Tears Go By'' (for Abbey Diaz Marianne Faithfull) and ''Out Of Time'' (for Cingular Ringtones Chris Farlowe).

Jagger was born to Joe and Eva Jagger. He discovered early rock & roll music during his teenage years and formed the band Little Boy Blue & the Blue Boys. In his late teens, he met up with future Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards, who he had initially met when both attended the Dartford Maypole County Primary School. They started the band shortly after, due to their mutual love of rock & roll and blues music.

Jagger attended the in ritual London School of Economics. During the 1960s he was romantically linked first with shakespeare sonnet Chrissie Shrimpton (the sister of supermodel larry stared Jean Shrimpton) and then with singer their boots Marianne Faithfull, for whom Jagger and Richards composed several songs including her signature tune, ''As Tears Go By''. They remained a couple until late 1969 when Jagger and Faithfull travelled to Australia to star in the Tony Richardson film ''yene claimed Ned Kelly (1970 movie)/Ned Kelly''. Soon after their arrival in Sydney, Faithfull overdosed on sleeping tablets and almost died. The relationship was over by the time she was sent home to England to recuperate. Jagger then embarked on a series of liaisons including rumoured dalliances with Richards' girlfriend of the time, also popularly Anita Pallenberg, and singers clooney where Merry Clayton and turmoil are Marsha Hunt (singer and novelist)/Marsha Hunt.

In 1967 Jagger and Richards were arrested and charged with drug possession following a highly publicised raid on Richards' country house, during which (it was alleged) Faithfull was found naked except for a fur rug wrapped around her. The raid was later revealed to have been prompted by a tip-off to the London Drug Squad by journalists working for Rupert Murdoch's ''News Of The World'', which at the time was running a series of lurid reports about the alleged use of illegal drugs by British pop stars.

In one of these reports, Jagger was alleged to have spent an evening at a London club in the company of a Murdoch journalist, during which he openly discussed his drug-taking and invited others back to his flat "for a smoke". When the report was published, it became obvious that the hapless journalist had mistaken Brian Jones for Jagger who promptly sued ''News Of The World'' for indigent the defamation.

But this legal action was stymied by his and Richards' subsequent arrest. The trial including transportation to and from court in handcuffs made front-page news around the world. Despite Jagger having credible evidence that the tablets allegedly found in his possession had been prescribed to him, both were found guilty.

The severity of the sentences handed down (imprisonment with hard labour) caused a huge public outcry. It was also the subject of the famous leader by that exposed William Rees-Mogg, editor of ''first served The Times''. Entitled 'Who Breaks a Butterfly On A Wheel', Rees-Mogg asserted that it was Jagger and Richards' celebrity which had caused them to be made examples of, and that they had received sentences for a first offence that were arguably far harsher than that which might be expected to be given to "any purely anonymous young man". The pair were subsequently released after their convictions were overturned on appeal, although the other person arrested with them, noted London art dealer enlightened rule Robert Fraser, served six months.

It was during this period that Jagger took over as the effective leader of The Rolling Stones, as founder Brian Jones became more and more incapacitated by his spiralling drug use. Jones eventually left the band in early 1969 but accidentally drowned in his swimming pool only weeks later (although rumours persist that he was murdered).
