I used to see keith buzzing around nyc. He always was a nice happy guy and just so damn pleased to be here. He had an aura of light and happiness about him. He would acknowledge people who recognized him with a smile, a chuckle and a nod of his head. No rock star attitude, no chip on his shoulder. no bodyguards. Totally cool, totally genuine guy.
I could listen to interviews or read interviews with Keith all day long. Say what you want, the man has lived a full life and is as fascinating as hell.
It’s so humbling to see this softer side of Keith be so honest and opening about his faults, admitting he’s not perfect. This is why I’ll always respect him
Oh my god , Keith Richards, he’s someone that you actually wanna hang out with. A cool guy, nice vibes and just an amazing person in general. Love him ❤️💕
Decades ago, my brother worked with a famous NY photographer. They shot promos for a Stones tour and then did the same several years later. When doing introductions for the second tour, Keith looked my brother in the eye and said, "We've met before haven't we?" This was a gap of about 5 years. What a guy.
I felt i learned quite a lot about the "traditional Keith" in his book "Life". An only child so family means a lot to him. There are photos in the book of his parents and relatives. Loves dogs and in Russia during a world tour one year noticed this stray dog which turned up at the concert venue (the stage crew had been feeding it). Keith made enquiries, had it vaccinated and shipped out to live the rest of his days at Keiths home. He named him Rasputin. He's also a serious culture vulture who knows his history and enjoys being in different countries meeting people. This video was shot when he was 67.....he's 76 now and STILL rockin'!!
The first few bars of "Satisfaction" gets him into Rock Heaven. 50 years later that riff still sends shivers down my spine. It could be the best opening of any rock song ever, and "Keef" wrote it when he was 21.
It's been said that Keith came up with the riff as he was waking up in the middle of the night. Turned on the tape recorder and banged it out. Then fell back to sleep. The recording supposedly had five minutes of riff and 45 minutes of snoring. Imagine the value of that tape if it still exists. Haha.I also read or heard Kieth admit that he begged Mick not to record it in the studio because he thought it would bomb.
@@@rvalderas1 I heard and read about the story differently. There was a meeting with the group members: Jagger and Richards voted for the song not to be released. Jones, Wyman, and Watts voted to have the song released. Jones argued with Jagger and Richards that it was a sure #1 hit when it hits the air waves: Wyman and Watts agreed with Jones. Jagger and Richards were not too happy about releasing the song and disliked Jones for giving his vote to the other members. Jones was supposed vote along with Jagger and Richards. The song did become a major hit when it charted on Billboard. That's history! Many feel that because Brian Jones never received credit for writing songs only lending his expertise to playing and giving the group their unique sound using instruments that weren't conventionally used in Rock and Roll. RIP Brian Jones.
I would kill to have a beer with this man...he's so down to earth..I've seen the stones three times and the winos once in a small venue and he fived me!...he looked me right in the eye and smiled at me...greatest moment of my life!..
Sweet Saw the winos in LA, have seen several tours and worked the shows where Prince was 3rd on the bill :) SHOULD HAVE AND COULD HAVE EASILY HAVE MET THEM ALL :( was there for days living in the L.A. Coliseum for 2 showa and a USC game INBETWEEN
Keith Richards is a man's man! Love ya Keef ! The Stones showed me how Rock n Roll was done. Thank You keef! You still are the best after all these years!
Down to earth; no pretension; no huge ego ... intelligent; funny and witty. I adore Keith, and I love this interview. It offers us some amazing insight into his personality, which I have always found charming and comical. He is endearing and gracious and sensitive. Comes across as just a regular guy, but he is quite a character. ;o)
Keith and Mick changed the way music was heard and enjoyed, I'm 72 and still listen to the Stones ridin' my motorcycle with the amps turned up. At red lights I get young punks lookin' over wondering how is it possible.
There will never be a band that hit IT like the greatest band did. The Rolling Stones. It was '64 for me as a freshman at Ohio U. My gal and me were having a blast going to rock joints and lovin' the Stones. She liked the Beatles, but I got her to rock with Mick and Keith, and forget Paul and John.
Incredible human being. No pretences, no bullshit, doesn’t have to pretend or wear masks. And he doesn’t. He shows respect and consideration for any human being no matter what they have or what they do. One for real cat that shows who he is and says what he thinks. There will come a day, sadly, that we’re going to lose him. And that will be a tragedy for us all, because, there surely will be no one like him ever again. God bless you Keef.
Hello,I am Federico from Italy,I spent much time listenin Stones music and havin inspiration from Keith and his way of thinkin life.Now I try to involve my 2 kids and...."Don't matter till you die...."Great Keith
Uncle Keef! One of his finest moments-and he's had plenty of fine moments-was when he coldcocked the stage crasher with his black Fender Strat, put it back on, and went right back into 'Satisfaction' without missing a lick.
If you like this, you'll also love Charlie Rose's interview with Led Zeppelin if you're a Zep fan. It was from late 2012 on the event of their Kennedy Center honors, and is also here on RUclips. Rose is an unabashed Zep fan, yet didn't shy away from asking them some tough questions. IMO, they indulged him because they not only respected his stature as a serious journalist, but they could see he knew his Zep stuff and respected them.
Very nice to see this.This man got a solid foundation buildet on expierence,wisdom,and love for life and music,art and lyric.His book 》Life《》is a book that everybody should have in his bookshelf.Thank you Keith🎸🎙📚✍🎼🙏
His love and respect for planting plants and trees reveals how he leads with his heart. I read his book in 2010; discovered this morning in 2020 that a video/doc was produced and right here on the tube (in 6 segments /Videos). Highly recommend that and am greatly enjoying this particular interview. Much thanks for sharing
Keith Richards is an amazing, very lovable man, an amazing musician, and the kind of person, I'd love to get to know better, SO! Time to order his book, for sure. Sometimes, I'm a bit slow, but better late than never! lol Lovely home, Keith, and as an avid gardener, I can identify! lol Your lemon trees are awesome! :) Here's to you and your beautiful family. Shine on! Thank you, Varied, for posting this video, which I had not seen prior. ;)
Hey...be fair... Don't all actors ("-") do the same? They are all "acting" for heaven's sake. Get real. Hey... I can do a pretty good Long John Silver impersonation. (Robert Newton: Treasure Island) Don't make me an actor.
Johnny talks like him sometimes in interviews . johnny must idolize him like a kid fan . He is friends with him and seems to go in and out of the accent in interviews . Ive herad johnny go in and out of a British accent in an interview with Letterman . He did not know he was doing it .
The reality of hearing those Stones tunes open with some guitar chords or riff , it is greatness . I remember listening to 40 Licks , Stones CD and realizing all the intros were just bloody brilliant .
Finally get to see the legends live in concert tomorrow Sa. 6/30 in Stuttgart, Germany! Keith is very cool I love that he’s so down to earth & a major blues fan! Like me. Rock n Roll forever!
Keith Richards has taken some hard hits throughout his life and has proven himself very resilient. He's comes from the school of hard knocks, a survivor. The Rolling Stones have always been a big inspiration for me to learn and play guitar and harmonica. Slow going, I like to try anyways. Even just talking about it is great fun. There might even be a Native American Vision tied in with everything, but that remains to be seen. It could also land me in deep trouble, too, if I'm not careful. All I know is that it helps me and it's a positive path for me. Right now it's all I have going, right now I'm running on pure Native American Vision, pure Spiritual power that keeps me going, There is an equation, some eagle's feathers, some songs an Invisible Army and a theory that backs it up. Without it, I'm nothing, Bearsbelly- Native American Medicine man
As a six year old kid,I thought the Beatles were the best until I heard the Stones do Little Red Rooster. All of a sudden,I Want To Hold Your Hand, seemed pretty lame!!!!
If Keith Richards didn't exist, rock and roll would have to make him up. He is 'Mr Rock and Roll' that say's it all (IMO) as Mick Jagger once said ..." you can't out punk keith, it's pointless" ... I love the quote " I never had a drug problem, just a police problem"... I also remember seeing Keith going on stage with the same clothes he wore all day... that's living 'Rock and Roll'!!
Keef once said to the question “ where do you get your clothes?” Keef’s reply if I saw a shirt I liked at some party that someone was wearing chances are they would be going home shirtless. Now that’s a Keef answer if ever there was one.
I love Keith,he is really down to earth and so naturally,funny,witty ,intelligent and much more as a LEGEND.....he will be the best DOWN TO EARTH MEN in the World ,Keef you are the living LEGEND
Keith is soooo cool! I love him! He’s very funny and quite traditional. He loves his wife and kids. And I totally get his explanation about “getting away from the flim-flam” speaking on drugs.
His musical roots are blues, which is obvious and acknowledged by all, and country, or the edge of country. He is living proof that _musicians_ unlike fans, don't limit themselves by genre.
@@suchabadkitty1293 There used to be a tasteless joke when i was a kid, over which Rolling Stone you thought was the 'coolest'. That being Brian Jones at the time.
Damn, this was great to see. I'm a Mick fan myself, being THE frontaman of frontmen, but always thought Keef was the coolest Stone. This confirms that. Love his shirt in the interview.
Saw his tour with the Expensive Winos and this man was Rock Star personified and everyone in that band just ROCKED. Love the Stones but oh how I'd love to see another solo tour with that same band. If he would ever do his own tour again...GO see it > just GO.
A lot of Americans don't realise the ancestral context of Keith's background & how people from the region of London he comes from are held in high esteem by the British in general. My family actually come from the same town in London & I have an idea my old man might have served in the same tank regiment as Keith's dad doing the same job but am looking into that further. Generally *EastEnders* are the salt of the Earth who will try & find joy & fun in life. We have the ability to laugh at adversity (not that Keith has had too much of that!) & that trait & an immense community that is now sadly all but gone saw us through the *Blitz!*
I always 'liked' the Rolling Stones, but was never a true fan. It took reaching 52 years of age to really appreciate them, and now i have to rank Keef as my No. 3 or 4 'guitar hero.' It's crazy, how much music the Stones have. I once-recently-found a guitar pedal demo on youtube, where the presenter was playing a song i thought was by the Stones, but i couldn't identify it. I spent an hour or so scrubbing through the entire Stones collection on iTunes previews, trying to find it. And i incidentally learned just how many amazing songs they have, that i either hadn't heard, or had heard only once or twice in my lifetime. Phenomenal stuff. And Keith did it without pyrotechnics or virtuostic skills. Just a couple of guitars, maybe a Phaser every now and again. Inspiring.
I Honestly enjoy ALL of the Stones recordings from the 1990's forward more than the late 60's -70's stuff. Those songs have been played to frigging death!!
No other rock star has as many well known riffs as keith(maybe jimmy page). But you get my point. I've been going to the stones concerts since the early 70s. I got their logo tattooed on my chest ,over my heart. After all those miles and years and concerts (10-15). I finally took the first step to continue their legend ,in 2015 i took my son to his first concert. And yes it was the stones . Yes it worked he has been transformed from mostly rap .now he seems more into rock . Thanks for the ride .to steal a phrase from geri what a long strange trip its been
How can you not like Keith ? This guy is AWESOME
I used to see keith buzzing around nyc. He always was a nice happy guy and just so damn pleased to be here. He had an aura of light and happiness about him. He would acknowledge people who recognized him with a smile, a chuckle and a nod of his head. No rock star attitude, no chip on his shoulder. no bodyguards. Totally cool, totally genuine guy.
That's awesome you got to see him walking around. Must've been while he was working on his latest solo record!

I can attest to this fact. Met Keith near the scrap bar and he was with his tech Pierre and he was very cool and laid back no attitude at all.
Keith Richards has always been my hero since a 14 year old boy.
I could listen to interviews or read interviews with Keith all day long. Say what you want, the man has lived a full life and is as fascinating as hell.
I agree.keith is fabulous.
"life" in podcast read by Johnny Depp!.----------> precious!. to B found on the "piratebays"!!!!.
When Keith goes..that's it folks. Game over for everyone.
agree
@@jamesanderson348 We all need to start thinking about what kind of world we're gonna leave for Keith Richards.
I've always had a deep respect for Keith and his playing. His open tunings and his approach on the guitar.
Me too !
He copied others a great deal
It’s so humbling to see this softer side of Keith be so honest and opening about his faults, admitting he’s not perfect. This is why I’ll always respect him
My Favorite Band of All Times 💖
👍👍👍
These guys still being alive, and still rocking is awesome.
RIP CHARLIE WATTS❤
Oh my god , Keith Richards, he’s someone that you actually wanna hang out with. A cool guy, nice vibes and just an amazing person in general. Love him ❤️💕

@@richardlee1972 lt would be fabulous..keith has always been my favourite stone...
It is 2020 and KEEF n The Stones R Still Rocking . Better than Ever. God Bless The Rolling Stones
He should be credited for some of the best intro's in Rock and Roll music ever.
Should be?
“You’re supposed to be there you’know - but I wasn’t there”
Heart wrenching 😢
What a great quote! "If I can turn Mick on, then Mick can turn the world on."
YESSS...Reminds me of a similar Springsteen quote: "If I can get a fan's ass moving, their heart will follow" ! 😁🤣
The coolest human on the planet, god bless you Keith
"I've always planted things. I used to grow weed, but I was never around for the harvest."
I know what you mean I would never throw away the seeds I would always plant them everywhere I went back in the '60s ~
but it never made it to harvest!!
Same here
Keith Richards is a man's man! Love ya Keef ! The Stones showed me how Rock n Roll was done. Thank You keef! You still are the best after all these years!

i know this is extremely late but, Kieth has a HUGE EGO and lies a few times
He is smart to lie - not rude by saying I don't tell :) He is very down to earth - always my fave Stone !
so true : he protects himself with his bullet - proof coolness :)
And he's looking even more handsome now than he did in the 1960s.
He is a smart dude...most think he's a little brain dead, but he's avid reader and loves knowledge. Really down to earth family guy.
Keith and Mick changed the way music was heard and enjoyed, I'm 72 and still listen to the Stones ridin' my motorcycle with the amps turned up. At red lights I get young punks lookin' over wondering how is it possible.

Was that the looney guy who rushed toward Jagger in Hampton Roads, VA, during the Tattoo You tour ?
What a man..first heard Satisfaction on my tiny leather cased transistor radio. At 13 years old it blew me away.
this is surprisingly good for something on sunday morning television, almost as if they made it for real keef fans and not the general public

@keith Richards Oh, ok "keith". 🙄
Such a good piece with some fascinating 'glimpses' (or should I say glimmers! ) into a remarkable life !

Great story. Thanks for sharing.
When Keef laid down the riff for Jumping Jack Flash he made the summit and he's been there ever since.
When that song was first aired on radio, there was ' absolutely ' nothing else like it, black leather motorcycle music. The Stones had upped the ante.
Keith is da bomb ! He’s the greatest of all time.
If Keith Richards didn't exist, rock and roll would have to make him up. He is 'Mr Rock and Roll' that say's it all (IMO) as Mick Jagger once said ..." you can't out punk keith, it's pointless" ...

The keef. Still working on Life. Thick as War and Peace, but what a great literate narrator!
That’s being really lazy
No need to hunt Keith Richards down because he's such an enigma. He is everyman.
Keef is the coolest guy, yeah!

god! I never knew about his loss in 76.. heart wrenching x
Keith is soooo cool! I love him! He’s very funny and quite traditional. He loves his wife and kids. And I totally get his explanation about “getting away from the flim-flam” speaking on drugs.
HE IS THE BEST....DOWN TO EARTH AND WOULD LIKE TO SEE MORE OF HIM IN MOVIES
he's an accomplished writer. been taking copious notes forever. very smart. great book.
His musical roots are blues, which is obvious and acknowledged by all, and country, or the edge of country. He is living proof that _musicians_ unlike fans, don't limit themselves by genre.

En stor legend och har alltid gillat Richards.
Not many people can say they snorted their Dad. If anyone snorted Keith they would be high for ever.
Razzlebathbone lmao
:D
I wonder what a line of his ashes would go for
Unbelievable! Hilarious!
And God forbid Keith gives a blood transfusion. The recipient would get drunk.

Generally *EastEnders* are the salt of the Earth who will try & find joy & fun in life. We have the ability to laugh at adversity (not that Keith has had too much of that!) & that trait & an immense community that is now sadly all but gone saw us through the *Blitz!*
Makes sense.
Bullshit. Keith is a great guy but the East End produced some right thugs and screwballs.
I use to grow weed, but was never around for the harvest😂😂😂
A very simple, down-to-earth, honest to goodness attitude person, Keith is! Not to mention a man with a good sense of humor :)
I always 'liked' the Rolling Stones, but was never a true fan. It took reaching 52 years of age to really appreciate them, and now i have to rank Keef as my No. 3 or 4 'guitar hero.' It's crazy, how much music the Stones have. I once-recently-found a guitar pedal demo on youtube, where the presenter was playing a song i thought was by the Stones, but i couldn't identify it. I spent an hour or so scrubbing through the entire Stones collection on iTunes previews, trying to find it. And i incidentally learned just how many amazing songs they have, that i either hadn't heard, or had heard only once or twice in my lifetime. Phenomenal stuff. And Keith did it without pyrotechnics or virtuostic skills. Just a couple of guitars, maybe a Phaser every now and again. Inspiring.
Thank God for Carmine St. Guitars & Keith.
A completely unexpected portrait of a much misunderstood artist. Wonderful insight into Keith Richards' life.
Some how the stones don’t lose their importance- they actually gain importance in today’s music world
I really enjoyed this interview with Keith!!
Keith downplays his image as a superstar he and the band have been playing great music for 56yrs nobody will top that
I simply love this man🧡
I Honestly enjoy ALL of the Stones recordings from the 1990's forward more than the late 60's -70's stuff. Those songs have been played to frigging death!!
Keef !!! My favorite guitarist !!!
No other rock star has as many well known riffs as keith(maybe jimmy page). But you get my point. I've been going to the stones concerts since the early 70s. I got their logo tattooed on my chest ,over my heart. After all those miles and years and concerts (10-15). I finally took the first step to continue their legend ,in 2015 i took my son to his first concert. And yes it was the stones . Yes it worked he has been transformed from mostly rap .now he seems more into rock . Thanks for the ride .to steal a phrase from geri what a long strange trip its been
@ I've done more in my life than you will ever think about from your mom's basement.
"Image, it carries a long shadow" KEITH!
One of my favorite human beings ever.
