Non-Fiction Memoir
The long-awaited autobiography of the guitarist,
songwriter, singer, and founding member of the Rolling
Stones. Ladies and gentleman: Keith
Richards.
With The Rolling Stones, Keith
Richards created the songs that roused the world, and he
lived the original rock and roll life.
Now, at last,
the man himself tells his story of life in the crossfire
hurricane. Listening obsessively to Chuck Berry and Muddy
Waters records, learning guitar and forming a band with Mick
Jagger and Brian Jones. The Rolling Stones's first fame and
the notorious drug busts that led to his enduring image as
an outlaw folk hero. Creating immortal riffs like the ones
in "Jumping Jack Flash" and "Honky Tonk Women." His
relationship with Anita Pallenberg and the death of Brian
Jones. Tax exile in France, wildfire tours of the U.S.,
isolation and addiction. Falling in love with Patti Hansen.
Estrangement from Jagger and subsequent reconciliation.
Marriage, family, solo albums and Xpensive Winos, and the
road that goes on forever.
With his trademark
disarming honesty, Keith Richard brings us the story of a
life we have all longed to know more of, unfettered,
fearless, and true.
