    1. Not yet born, so no.

    2. Jagger, JOnes, Richards, Ian Stewart, and maybe Mick Avory (who went on to join the Kinks) on drums. He was an early member, anyway. No idea who was on bass but I know Wyman didn’t join till later [I read Keith Richards autobiography last year: its a good read, btw]

    3. Its a toss up between Gimme Shelter and Tumbling Dice.

    4.Stones.

    5. Nah, but some of the alt-country stuff comes close.
