Overview

The long-awaited autobiography of Keith Richards, guitarist, songwriter, singer, and founding member of the Rolling Stones.

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.

  • Voted most likely to die

    Rob A. - 5 years 5 months ago

    The most elegantly wasted man on the planet, "the human riff" - just a few of the things Keith Richards has been called throughout his life, which itself seems like a crazy adventure that no one else but Keith could ever survive. It's all there in gritty detail - the rock n roll lifestyle, the danger, the laughs, the highs and lows and everything in between. At times it feels like you're sitting there having a drink with him as he's telling you everything. I'm still amazed that he could even remember it all.
