Today we celebrate the birthday of Rolling Stones producer Jimmy Miller who was born on March 23, 1942. Like the Stones, Miller was a little kid growing up during and after World War II, but Miller was an American born in Brooklyn. Miller made important recordings with Blind Faith, Spooky Tooth, Traffic, Motörhead, the Plasmatics, and Primal Scream, but he was best known for his part in the Stones’ legendary run of records: Beggars Banquet (1968), Let It Bleed (1969), Sticky Fingers (1971), Exile on Main St. (1972) and Goats Head Soup (1973). Miller died in 1994.
