The rock musician revealed the back story of how The Rolling Stones got its logo. He shares that his brother was an early traveller to India and he would bring some books home and give them to him. He was looking for an image that would be an eye-grabbing thing. And that was when he stumbled upon the disembodied tongue of Goddess Kali. Mick thought it would be an inspiration. All of this happened in 1969. He took the idea to the designer John Pasche who made the logo of The Rolling Stones. Of course, he gave it a modernistic touch to the tongue logo.
