Synopsis
Once-in-a-generation memoir of a rock legend - the No. 1 SUNDAY TIMES
bestseller. With the Rolling Stones, Keith Richards created the riffs,
the lyrics and the songs that roused the world, and over four decades he
lived the original rock and roll life: taking the chances he wanted,
speaking his mind, and making it all work in a way that no one before
him had ever done. Now, at last, the man himself tells us the story of
life in the crossfire hurricane. And what a life. Listening obsessively
to Chuck Berry and Muddy Waters records as a child in post-war Kent.
Learning guitar and forming a band with Mick Jagger and Brian Jones. The
Rolling Stones' first fame and success as a bad-boy band. The notorious
Redlands drug bust and subsequent series of confrontations with a
nervous establishment that led to his enduring image as outlaw and folk
hero. Creating immortal riffs such as the ones in 'Jumping Jack Flash'
and 'Street Fighting Man' and 'Honky Tonk Women'. Falling in love with
Anita Pallenberg and the death of Brian Jones. Tax exile in France,
wildfire tours of the US, 'Exile on Main Street' and 'Some Girls'. Ever
increasing fame, isolation and addiction.
Falling in love with Patti Hansen. Estrangement from Mick Jagger and
subsequent reconciliation. Solo albums and performances with his band
the Xpensive Winos. Marriage, family and the road that goes on for ever.
In a voice that is uniquely and intimately his own, with the disarming
honesty that has always been his trademark, Keith Richards brings us the
essential life story of our times.
