Keith Richards autobiography 'Life' - reight book

If you're into biographies, fill your boots. Very entertaining. Opens with Keith getting busted in the bible belt of America in a car loaded with cocaine and weed. How he managed to walk away with a minor traffic offence and forfeiture of a fishing knife is something else.

I haven't finished it yet but he's quite a story teller and his life is bewildering!

 

Took it on holiday last year.....brilliant book.

How this guy is still alive really does defy modern biological science.

 

Chapter two: "...and that was the first time I got shot." - you know you're in for a fun ride.

 

It's a brilliant book I read it last year...might have to read it again now

 

I'll be reading it next, the Pete townshend books a good read too and another bloke that makes u wonder vow he's still alive.

Just finishing Terry venables book, bit boring to be honest

 

This one is an absolute page turner

Four blokes there and the stuff they did is incredible. Author manages to weave in some stories about Keith Moon too, who was just barmy. Peter O'Toole had a habit of getting drunk and then waking up in anither country. The stuff about Burton and Taylor is incredible.

 

Great read.

Only surpassed in my opinion by Heroes & Villains - the Story of the Beach Boys... drownings, involvement with a violent killer, madness ...
