THE NYTIMES has a great article by Janet Maslin, "Keith Richards Has Memories to Burn". It's an interview with Keith and his collaborator about "Life", Keith's auto-biography/memoir, just published by Little, Brown & Company. His collaborator, James Fox, wrote the delightful "White Mischief", so "Life" should be a real treat.
This is a political blog, so WTF? Well, politics are all about culture(s), and this man and his partner have had a major, all-pervasive influence on our music and our culture. Buy a new copy of "Exile on Main St." Listen carefully. "Loving Cup": caught the attention of every recording studio weenie on the planet in the late 60's and early 70's.
Keeeeef! We are Exile-mad here. Thanks for the tip on the NYT story.
