Keith Richards citations

Keith Richards est un musicien, auteur-compositeur, guitariste britannique, cofondateur, en 1962, avec Mick Jagger, Brian Jones et Ian Stewart, du groupe rock The Rolling Stones. Avec Mick Jagger, au sein d'un partenariat qu'ils ont baptisé The Glimmer Twins , il est le compositeur de la grande majorité du répertoire original du groupe.

Keith Richards a bâti sa notoriété sur son jeu de guitare caractéristique , qui a fait de lui un légendaire inventeur de riffs, sur l'important nombre de hits internationaux qu'il a composés avec Mick Jagger , tout comme sur sa vie mouvementée, ses nombreux ennuis avec la justice de plusieurs pays dus à son addiction à l'héroïne dans les années 1970. Il résume sa vie dans son autobiographie Life publiée en 2010, qui a connu un important succès en librairie et où il dit « Je prendrai ma retraite quand j'aurai cassé ma pipe ».

“Rap — so many words, so little said. What rap did that was impressive was to show there are so many tone-deaf people out there. All they need is a drum beat and somebody yelling over it and they're happy. There’s an enormous market for people who can't tell one note from another.”

“What interested me about Chuck Berry was the way he could step out of the rhythm part with such ease, throwing in a nice, simple riff, and then drop straight into the feel of it again. We used to play a lot more rhythm stuff. We'd do away with the differences between lead and rhythm guitar. You can't go into a shop and ask for a "lead guitar."”
