The Rolling Stones formed in London in 1962 with singer Mick Jagger and guitarist Keith Richards forming one of rock music’s most enduring songwriting partnerships. Bassist Bill Wyman and drummer Charlie Watts completed the band’s early lineup. The Stones have released more than 20 studio albums and 9 live albums, and have sold more than 200 million albums worldwide. In 1989 the band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and in 2004 they were ranked number 4 in Rolling Stone magazine’s 100 Greatest Artists of All Time.
