You're always learning about this thing everytime you pick it up
Keith Richards
Image
A painter's got a canvas. The writer's got reams of empty paper. A musician has silence.
Keith Richards

Good music comes out of people playing together, knowing what they want to do and going for it. You have to sweat over it and bug it to death. You can't do it by pushing buttons and watching a TV screen.

Keith Richards
Image
Treat each guitar track-and each song-completely different. For example, if I'm using a certain amp and guitar on one track, I'll deliberately use something else for the next tune or overdub.

From the 12th Congressional District Hopeful William Jefferson Clinton during the Nixon investigations. I wanted to share some information I've turned up regarding two of your Clinton quotes.
Keith Richards
Image
The electric guitar was vital in helping what I've achieved where would I be without it? Playing awfully quietly, for a start.
Keith Richards
Image
I'd play whenever I could get my hands on an electric guitar I was trying to pick up rock'n'roll riffs and electric blues - the latest Muddy Waters. I'd spend hours and hours on the same track, back again, and back again.

If you're gonna get wasted, get wasted elegantly.

Everyone talks about rock these days the problem is they forget about the roll.

It's good to be anywhere.
