But the late Ahmet Ertegun is evidently one of them.

The hugely influential founder of Atlantic Records, the independent label which brought the likes of Ray Charles, The Drifters and Led Zeppelin to the music-loving public, died aged 83 last December.

Former model L'Wren Scott accompanied Jagger to the event

Jerry Hall arrived with her daughters Georgia (left) and Elizabeth in tow

At the Time Warner Building in New York, the Jaggers, including Mick and Jerry's daughters Elizabeth, 23, and teenager Georgia, Oscar winning actress Helen Mirren and former Fleetwood Mac singer Stevie Nicks gathered to pay tribute.

Jagger, who is to play the O2 Arena - the former Millennium Dome - in London this summer as part of the Rolling Stones latest tour, has spoken often of his love of the rhythm and blues popularised by Ertegun and his brother Nesuhi which inspired his own career.

By sad coincidence, it was a fall at a Stones concert in New York last October for the 60th birthday of former American president Bill Clinton that led to Ertegun's death. He slipped and hit his head.

Initially stable, his condition later took a turn for the worse. He died in hospital on 14 December.

Jagger's extra-marital flings put paid to his long-term relationship with Hall seven years ago but any tensions between them now seem over.

He has been dating Scott, a celebrity stylist who was previously a model, for most of the time since then.

Ahmet Ertegun was born in Turkey but moved to America when his father was appointed ambassador to the US. With Nesuhi, he founded Atlantic Records in the Forties.
