Life (Richards book)
Memoir by Keith Richards
Life is a memoir by the Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards, written with the assistance of journalist James Fox.
Published in October 2010, in hardback, audio and e-book formats, the book chronicles Richards' love of music, charting influences from his mother and maternal grandfather, through his discovery of blues music, the founding of the Rolling Stones, his often turbulent relationship with Mick Jagger, his involvement with drugs, and his relationships with women including Anita Pallenberg and his wife Patti Hansen.
Richards also released Vintage Vinos, a compilation of his work with the X-Pensive Winos, at the same time.
With the Rolling Stones, Keith Richards created the riffs, the lyrics and the songs that roused the world, and over four decades he lived.
Co-writer James Fox interviewed Richards and his associates over a period of five years to produce the book. Life was generally well received by critics and topped The New York Times non-fiction list in the first week of release.
