When I started, all I wanted to do was play like Chuck (Berry)

Keith Richards

The only new technology that interests me is when it sort of throws me back soundwise. And I can think, Wow, that means I can go onstage and sound like Scotty Moore now and again!
Keith Richards
Image
Retire? I can't spell the word. I'd play in a wheelchair.
Keith Richards
Image
I'm an unpure purist, something like that.
Keith Richards
Image
When I listen to what I did under the influence - 10 years of work - I don't think it either enhanced or impaired me. It didn't have that much to do with it.
Keith Richards
Image
If you say I'm great, thank you very much. But I know what I am. I could be better, man, you know?
Keith Richards

There's a demon in me, and he's still around. Without the dope, we have a bit more of a chat these days.
