This man has always been VERY INTELLIGENT and well read. Even at his most strung out he was never dumb enough to let it define him. Brilliant artist and musician.
It’s ironic that he’s considered the poster boy, cliche rock star because he’s actually one of the most thoughtful, kind and intelligent of all rock musicians.
I think he's the poster boy because because he was the first one, the first guitar rock star. A lot of subsequent guitarists could therefor be accused of trying to copy an image, but not Keith. Because he was the original. (One of them of course, but certainly the most iconic one, image-wise)
Kieth was into drugs and alcohol and was known for it but that was just a hobby. Music was his existence. Was there another musician/guitarist in history who loved the guitar and his guitar idols more? I don't think so. It was pure, he is
@@dr.buzzvonjellar8862 Actually I missed some personal remarks by Keith cause we were off record, when he told me, that he played chess with his father the night before. Walking the streets after, police mistook him for a bum - but then gave him a lift when they discovered who he was!
This is a great time capsule not only for Keith, but the politics of the time. His lines about performing, and not only recording, apply today in 2024. He is still a performer. If you can? Do it.

Keith talk like a junkie not greatful to have someone like Jagger to save him and the band. And still the same nowaday Keith could'nt play anymore, without Jagger no more shows. Surely a great guitarist but a bad childish guy for me.
@@Methilde There's no evidence that Keith isn't grateful. Or that Mick isn't grateful. Or that any Stone isn't grateful. Maybe you aren't grateful for the video being posted, but that's a different topic.
@wkrp01 Taylor called Jagger and not Keith, to anounce he had to leave and Mick asked him to take a break and come back if he want it. Ron was already in the place jamming with Keith. The credit matter is mostly about : Sway, Winter, Till the next goodby, Moonlighmile, all Jagget/Taylor songs. Keith wasn't even in the studio much too stoned. But he never regret to steal thoses credits. My opinion is that Jagger couldn't broke with him without killing the band, only my deduction. Keith chose Ron as a guy who will always stay in his shadow. You could be a good composer and not a nice guy.
The last two minutes of the video is priceless! The skull ring is what we all look like without our skin. The bracelet represents handcuffs, the Jaguar sleeping with one eye open. This interview was awesome, thanks for posting it.
"There's air, there's food, there's mum and dad and there's the Rolling Stones." Out of context, that quote could look arrogant, but it actually shows a very humble guy reflecting on his place in the world.
Now I love him more, this guy is just from another world, I still remember when I was 5 years old and my dad palyed his music at the morning when I was going to school, still feel the same way when I hear his music!!!! Te amo keitooo desde siempre, aguante argentinaaaa
His book "Life" is well worth reading and showed a side to Keith few realise such as his love of dogs The story of Rasputin, a stray he found in Russia, is golden! Todays Keith Richards is a different man having now even quit smoking, apparently after Ronnie Wood persuaded him!
I love the candid moments at the end when they are shooting B roll and Keith and the interviewer are just having a conversation and he asks him to do a prompt and Keith is so humble and accommodating. This is why people love Keith so much, salt of the earth that man.
salt of the earth indeed my friend. I'm 44 at this moment, bar the sex and rock and roll, I've done the drug thing and am sympathetic and empathetic as it's a struggle. His autobiography is amazing, a must read.
I'm on my late wife account, but I had a 1952 Telly that Keith wanted really bad. I had given it to a well known guitar tech to do a little bit of work ... and he sent a picture to him and a recording of it as well. It was an early one, and apparently it had a pick up from a lap Steel, which was slightly different, then the usual bridge pick up. It gave it a really interesting growl... not the usual twang. Keith, I believe uses a humbucker on his, whereas this one sounded like a humbucker, but was actually the oddball single coils that sometimes came stock. It was tempting because it was Keith! But I don't think I was even gonna get to meet him... i horse treated my way to a G&L Broadcaster and some 70's, strats. Who knows... he might have gotten that Telly in the end!
Fun to hear his perspectives so many years ago,don't know what he quoted about The dead but seems odd that he would throw negativity ,towards any other musicians.will look it up.happy he is still with us and so full of good energy
Living legend….love Keef! Always keeps it real and always intelligent and honest,very interesting guy with rock and roll ,road dog wisdom, you gotta love him!
He's totally authentic, which becomes even more obvious when the interview is finished and he is asked a few requests. Looks like he's just fell out of a nightclub but is as sharp as a knife.
The man! Bona fide musical songwriting genius. Decent guy with a firm grasp on Reality as much as can be expected for someone in his situation. Rock On!
Keith is really beloved family man, with a loving family, who just happen to be one of the greatest creative guitar players in the best Rockand Roll band in the world. I live in Toronto and remember his drug bust that almost put him in jail. Due to some unusual circumstances and a couple of benefit concerts he survived the ordeal and because of this ordeal, it started him on the road to recovery. This ordeal and some other reasons the Stones became fond of Toronto from then on to this day.
Keith Richard’s is the ultimate rock star and he also is a musical genius, songs like can’t you hear me knocking, and do do do do do ( heart breaker) will tell you right away of how great he is.
I love kieth. As a junkie who also stopped (youre never recovered, in my opinion, you just stop). I love how his down to earth serious and articulate personality came back. I get a kick out of his 70s interviews, still articulate but in a warm cloud of sedation. I was there for 5 years myself. Him and Ozzy. People like to rag on them for their years of inebriation. But struggling with substances while still holding on..maintaining and somehow functioning, is like driving a car while fighting Satan for the wheel. And I always respect someone who eventally kicks the devil out..or at least gets him to the back seat and regains control.
I started with loving the music, but little windows, like this, into the person behind the public image make me respect the man more and more for his thoughtfulness, work ethic and dedication to his craft. Luv ya Keef!
I was first turned on by the Stones when my Uncle & Aunt (they weren’t married at the time) around 1974, but have been since 1976. They gave me Through the Past Darkly on vinyl for my 11th birthday. From there it was Sticky Fingers, Exile & Let it Bleed. Fast forward to this time (1988) I bought the Guitar World with Keith on the cover promoting Talk is Cheap. Naturally I had to have the CD, which is very impressive. He had some great players supporting him! Looking at Keith at this stage of his life he had unbelievable charisma. Just like the journalist that interviewed him in the magazine pointed out. The way he opens a pack of smokes, & the way that he smokes is so rock n’ roll. Like others have pointed out, if you looked up rock star in an encyclopedia, there has to be a photo of Keith!
I got the sense, during that part, of what a sweet guy he is at heart. Didn't act like an impatient diva, just a level-headed (and pretty buzzed) pro doing what's required of his job. I'm sure he could be a real a-hole at times, like most of us, but he comes across as a genuine sweetheart.
I've long thought he's highly intelligent. It's possible that music has contributed to being lateral in his thinking. His lyrics show his genuine emotions. And he's always answered questions very honestly. There's no bullshit here because he doesn't like fakeness.
There are very few people in this world who know as much as Keith about the nuts and bolts of Rock & Roll. He knows how the beats bounce off each other, the anticipation, the backbeat, the swing and sway.......
Such a wise man at 44. He had already been through so much at that stage of his life. Very intelligent. He has always been cool, and I’ve always liked him.
What I really like on Keith is, in this period, mainly this interview and ALL interviews with Keith at all - he's absolutely stoned by booze or pills or powder (mayby put all this stuff together) but I NEVER seen Keith is awkward! He's one from "the great" I belief what he says! He's a loyal and honest guy I think. I appreciate him as a honest human being, not only he's Keith Richards and got a lot of bucks. No I think, he's a "normal" guy you can hang around with, not in the way he's a VIP or the famous member of tha Rolling Stones.
Dude, it was the '80s ...no one was sober then 😂 he was off the smack here, but certainly not 'sober'. Everybody and their grandmas were snorting coke back in the eighties.
Keith said something that everyone should know and that is that everyone is the same. We were isolated into family groups and therefore we look different but we’re all wired exactly the same. And what’s interesting about that is that if you take any group, from anywhere around the globe, you’ll find that a certain percentage of that group tends to be ideologues and a certain percentage tends to be more reasonable.
What he says about not knowing he could play like this, is true. I can remember jamming with a friend on mushrooms and watching my fingers and saying to myself who's playing this guitar? It still happens. Sometimes I can't believe how well I'm playing, other times I suck.
Hearing him speak about Chuck B. sends me back to LHSN. Chucks son Charles Jr. was there in 75-79. He was a nice person. Laid back and shy. "Knowing the Stones" was unreal for a teenager, and I got a kick out that.
This man has always been VERY INTELLIGENT and well read. Even at his most strung out he was never dumb enough to let it define him. Brilliant artist and musician.
I don’t know if he had ever gotten so bad off as Terry Melcher and Gram Parsons…
Dopers aren't always dumb,sloppy irresponsible losers as often thought as...
Absolutely. Some people think he is just a dumb junky but he is a very intelligent IMO and he makes alot of sense to me.
I read "life" hes amazing amazing life very very real person so sincere

He's the poster boy for rock star excess. I don't know what that has to do with being thoughtful, kind, or intelligent.
@@MrOctober44It has nothing to do with it, that’s why he’s saying it’s ironic
Kieth was into drugs and alcohol and was known for it but that was just a hobby. Music was his existence. Was there another musician/guitarist in history who loved the guitar and his guitar idols more? I don't think so. It was pure, he is
Simply put, I LOVE THIS MAN
For me, every Keith interview is important. His kind won’t be seen again in a century.
His kind won’t be permitted to exist in the next century.
they broke the mold
His kind won’t be permitted to exist next century.

But he’ll probably be around in 2124 also, Keith is not mortal

Keef was the before after point for white boy rhythm guitar… nobody laid way back on a beat and still grooved that hard

I liked his first solo album, but I haven't listened to it in 30 years.

The ringing sound of ice cubes in a cocktail glass always remind me of Keith ...

What I really like on Keith is, in this period, mainly this interview and ALL interviews with Keith at all - he's absolutely stoned by booze or pills or powder (mayby put all this stuff together) but I NEVER seen Keith is awkward! He's one from "the great" I belief what he says! He's a loyal and honest guy I think. I appreciate him as a honest human being, not only he's Keith Richards and got a lot of bucks. No I think, he's a "normal" guy you can hang around with, not in the way he's a VIP or the famous member of tha Rolling Stones.
You think he’s high in this interview? I don’t
@shawnc318 Hello, yap, I think he's stoned, maybe "only" by booze, but he is. But no matter, everybody got his own opinion! - Kindly regards
And even as high as he was back then, he was still making way more sense than 90% of nowadays 'artists'.
Dude, it was the '80s ...no one was sober then 😂 he was off the smack here, but certainly not 'sober'. Everybody and their grandmas were snorting coke back in the eighties.
@betrayaloftheunborn5289 You nailed it! Kindly regards
Keith. Always the real deal.

Keith said something that everyone should know and that is that everyone is the same. We were isolated into family groups and therefore we look different but we’re all wired exactly the same. And what’s interesting about that is that if you take any group, from anywhere around the globe, you’ll find that a certain percentage of that group tends to be ideologues and a certain percentage tends to be more reasonable.

What he says about not knowing he could play like this, is true. I can remember jamming with a friend on mushrooms and watching my fingers and saying to myself who's playing this guitar?
It still happens. Sometimes I can't believe how well I'm playing, other times I suck.
It depends on how much ego I have involved. When theirs none I play like a guitar hero, when theirs lots I suck.
Hearing him speak about Chuck B. sends me back to LHSN. Chucks son Charles Jr. was there in 75-79. He was a nice person. Laid back and shy. "Knowing the Stones" was unreal for a teenager, and I got a kick out that.

Great interview, learned a few things. Always nice when the interviewer allows the person interviewed to speak openly. 😂
