As a extremity of the Rolling Stones for three decades, Bill Wyman established himself among the greatest bassists in rock & seethe history; in tandem with drummer Charlie Watts, he belonged to one of the most stalwart rhythm sections in popular music, dead complementing the theatrics of Mick Jagger and the gamy guitar leads of Keith Richards. Born William Perks in London on October 24, 1936, Wyman was playing in a group called the Cliftons when he was asked to join the Stones in mid-1962, replacing bassist (and future Pretty Things extremity) Dick Taylor.

While seldom the receiver of the kind of media attention granted his more notorious bandmates, Wyman launch himself at the inwardness of scandal in 1989 when he matrimonial model Mandy Smith, whom he'd begun geological dating when she was hardly 13 days old; they divorced a class later. Finally, in January 1993, he publicly proclaimed his long-rumored departure from the Stones, announcing plans to publish an autobiography, Stone Alone; in 1997 Wyman formed a new band, the Rhythm Kings, which featured guitarists Peter Frampton and Albert Lee as good former Procol Harum keyboardist Gary Brooker. The grouping debuted with the LP Struttin' Our Stuff, followed in 1999 by Anyway the Wind Blows.
