Shortlisted for the Galaxy Biography of the Year Award 2011.
Not one just for Rolling Stones fans, not just one for lovers of rock music, this is a real part of modern history, chronicling a life spent in music and giving a real sense of how life can be if you shed the safe life options and go for the fast lane. And the drugs have left memory gaps but these are filled in with the commentaries of friends and family and overall Richards has some tremendous stories to tell, there are a good set of illustrations too making for a really compulsive read into the life of this born survivor.

With the Rolling Stones, Keith Richards created the riffs, the lyrics and the songs that roused the world, and over four decades he lived the original rock and roll life: taking the chances he wanted, speaking his mind, and making it all work in a way that no one before him had ever done. Now, at last, the man himself tells us the story of life in the crossfire hurricane. And what a life.
