Unabridged Audiobook
What a life, what a man and what a great book. Shame it switched narrators but other than that loved it.
I loved this book and listened to it while driving. The change in narration was slightly disconcerting but I quickly adjusted to the change in narrator and it was an added bonus to have KR reading his own story for the more recent years. KR is a true rock god and the ability to live his life true to the cause makes his life story a danm good read. The worst part of this book was the fact that it ended. .... must be a few more years to write about now?
I'm just over halfway through it. It's alright. There's a lot of focus on drug use. I've begun cracking up a every time I hear the narrator say things like "pure cocaine" "pure heroin" in what sounds to me like an overly exaggerated almost pirate like British accent that I suppose is meant to sound like Keith but really doesn't. For me personally the way to get the most out of this book has been to pause after each chapter and go listen to whatever album or singles were being discussed. This has helped me rediscover the Stones especially their earlier beginnings. Keith goes fairly in depth as far as relationships both romantic and professional as he also does technical details in regards to guitar playing or being in the studio. It can get a little boring but like I said if you break it up by listening to Stones music in between chapters it makes it way more insightful.
Highly recommend! Keith takes you on a journey throughout his life. Highest of highs and lowest of lows, all while keeping you entertained and on your seat. Must read for anyone looking for an autobiography.
I enjoyed the book.
When people talk about living life to the max Keith Richards is that man......no regrets....no apologies and I have to say whether you agree with any of his decisions or not he has done and experienced it all !! Keep Rockin !
This book was well written. The choice of narrators could not have fit better!
