Here below are some adorable photos of young Mick Jagger from his childhood, teenage and early career.
You know you’re a real fan when you can say definitively which of these captions are not accurate
Many of the dates are impossible, but the childhood pix present quite a different aspect of the mid-century Dionysius.
These photos of teenage Mick, Brian, and even Keith are interesting to me.
The photos are very similar to those taken by the Beatles at the same age, and why not? Having grown up loving rock and roll and being English boys.
But with the stones.. even beautiful Mick looks kinda ridiculous with the 50s greaser hair. It’s like their faces were designed exclusively for 60s fringes and shaggy hair.
