LIFE Keith Richards
Reviewed by Simon Schama in Dec's recent Newsweek
I was once asked what I thought was the most revealing document of the 20th century? "Keith Richards' face," I said.
"LiFE" proves I was pretty much right, and that he can do the words as well as the music. There won't ever be a better book on how a rock-and-roll band gets made and very nearly unmade, but it's also a wild gallop through the times. You get the smell of vinegar on bad chips; the melee of the hotel room; you get human comedy; and you even get his recipe for shepherd's pie.
