Con i Rolling Stones, Keith Richards ha creato canzoni che hanno scosso il mondo intero, vivendo in puro stile rock'n'roll. Ora, finalmente, racconta la storia di una vita scampata a un uragano di fuochi incrociati. Dall'ascolto ossessivo dei dischi di Chuck Berry e Muddy Waters, allo studio della chitarra e alla nascita della band con Mick Jagger e Brian Jones. L'iniziale successo dei Rolling Stones e i famigerati arresti per possesso di stupefacenti hanno consacrato la loro immagine di eroi popolari e fuorilegge. Richards descrive la creazione di riff immortali come quelli di "Jumpin' Jack Flash" e "Honky Tonk Women", l'amore per Anita Pallenberg e la morte di Brian Jones. Racconta dell'espatrio in Francia per motivi fiscali, dei tour incendiari negli Stati Uniti, dell'isolamento e della tossicodipendenza. Il nuovo amore per Patti Hansen, l'amaro allontanamento da Jagger e la successiva riconciliazione, il matrimonio, la famiglia, gli album solisti e gli X-Pensive Winos completano il quadro. Con disarmante onestà, Keith Richards ci consegna la storia di una vita sfrenata, impavida e autentica, una narrazione di alti e bassi nel mondo del rock 'n' roll, che tutti avremmo voluto conoscere meglio.

King, Neil Young, Pete Townshend, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Muddy Waters, and Dick Dale, and two CDs featuring over 120 tracks that make terms and topics come alive.
Beat Punks

Here, accompanied by dozens of unique photographs, are the very best of Victor Bockris's infamous interviews, essays, and observations on the stars of downtown Manhattan in the 1970s and 1980s. The internationally acclaimed biographer Bockris was there as a witness, friend, collaborator, and co-conspirator. Some of the stars were founding members of Beat or Punk, others were just passing through. But all of them—rockers, rebels, artists, and intellectuals—revealed more to Bockris than they did to any other writer: Allen Ginsberg, Richard Hell, Andy Warhol, Robert Mapplethorpe, Debbie Harry, William Burroughs, Patti Smith, Marianne Faithfull, Keith Richards, Terry Southern, Martin Amis, and Susan Sontag. Bockris's conclusion—that Punk owed the Beats a big debt and that the Beats were in turn re-animated by the Punks—is argued from the perspective of someone who was in the thick of it, and who loved every minute of it.
