Keef's beef





Musings from the drug/drink-addled mind of badboy hellraiser Keith Richards reveal the following:

Keith was a heroin addict for a decade and only quit cocaine a few years ago after falling out of a coconut tree and incurring even more brain damage and a metal skull plate. Seems a blow to the head was his wake up call to give up on Charlie.

On the night of the infamous 1967 Redlands drug bust, Keef was so far gone on LSD that when the police arrived at his Sussex country mansion, he mistook them for uniformed dwarves, welcoming them in with open arms.

Despite so much substance abuse, Keith has a razor wit. On the night Brian Jones was taken to hospital after throwing a punch at then-girlfriend Anita Pallenberg and smashing his fist into a metal window frame. Keith quipped:"He was never good at connecting with Anita."

He's also not averse to a spot of bitchery about Mick's trouser region. He says of ex Anita Pallenberg's dalliance with Mick: "She had no fun with the tiny todger." But according to Jerry Hall: "Mick is very well endowed. I should know – I was with him for 23 years. Keith is just jealous."

Hmmm, Jagger's Jumping Jack Flash crotch holds no clues about girls not getting 'No Satisfaction.'

Ah, it's only rock n roll but I like it!
Life - serialised in The Times - about to be released soon.
