I Haven't Forgotten Any Of It

"There have been numerous books written about the Rolling Stones or individual members of the band, but "Life" is the biggest seller of them all them all" it says of "Life" being released as paperback.

Good thing too, since my first hard copy is all doodled up + you wanna bring the man and his words withya!

And now Keith's again been honoured for this masterpiece of a bestseller.

"Life" took home the award for Outstanding Literary Achievement at the Spike's Guy's Choice Awards - even a hit with the critics!

And literary outstanding is Keith's telling, and so is his memory. "This is the Life. Believe it or not I haven't forgotten any of it." as the quote goes on the back of the book. And I believe Keith.

Boston Globe said in their review:
"Unlike a slew of recent authors whose phonied-up "memoirs’’ belied lives that actually weren’t too eventful, Richards is the real thing; his drug binges, brushes with the law, and public feuds with Rolling Stones singer Mick Jagger are all a matter of public record.".
