It all began at 102, Edith Grove, which was The Rolling Stones' first London home in Chelsea. Reportedly, it was a pretty stinky, disgusting place with empty bottles and dirty clothing all over the place. But Edith Grove was very formative and important in the band members' relationships, listening to music and sharing experiences and just living generally.
Mick Jagger lived there with Keith Richards and early member Brian Jones between 1962 and 1963. Bill Wyman & Charlie Watts often stayed over.
