Why we recommend it
Published in 2010, Life is the autobiography of Keith Richards, guitarist of the Rolling Stones. 550 pages covering his childhood in Dartford, forming the Stones with Mick Jagger, touring in the 60s-70s, heroin addiction, and survival. Richards writes (with James Fox) with brutal honesty and dark humour — you learn how he composed '(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction' in his sleep, how his open-G 5-string tuning works, and why he never quit smoking.
At the 132
The Rolling Stones feature in the setlists of several 132 bands (The Grungle, Dopamine). If you want to understand where the blended rhythm-lead guitar style comes from, read chapter 10.
