## Resource

On July 3, 1969, the brilliant but troubled founder of the Rolling Stones drowned in his swimming pool at age 27, just weeks after being fired from the band he created. We dive into the conspiracy theories, the police investigation that never quite added up, and how Brian Jones's death sparked a legend that would claim Jimi, Janis, Jim, and Kurt.
