Rolling Stones

2 Jan 2010 - Rolling Stones' guitar player Keith Richards has published his autobiography called "Life". It seems an appropriate title for a man who was near-dead for many years of his life. He wrote the book together with ghostwriter James Fox. Richards explains how it all started ... The band was still totally unknown when they were invited for an interview by a local magazine.Jazz News (!!!!). The journalist asked the duo Mick Jagger and Keith Richards what the name of the band was They had no clue, but they saw an album by Muddy Waters lying around and one of the songs on the album was called Rolling Stone. So, voila ... The Rolling Stones were born. Much has been said about the rivalry (and friendship) between Mick and Keith, but the name of the band was chosen by both of them. Not long after, they played the world in gigantic stadiums and earned lots of money. The legendary band was born.
