If Mick Jagger is the face of the Rolling Stones, the flesh and blood is surely Keith Richards. Joint composer of most of their hits, and minister to overall effect via a guitar style that has earned him the name "The Human Riff," Richards has played a key role in shaping the band`s distinctive sound.Sixties historian and rock journalist Alan Clayson leaves no stone unturned in this exhaustive account of Richard`s life: from his early days in art school and the take-off of the Stones` first single in 1963, to turbulent times in the `60s and 70`s and his battle with heroin addiction, right through to the current activities of this quintessential rock icon. Keith Richards is the definitive biography of the original bad boy of rock `n` roll.
