A friend of recently got me to rethink The Rolling Stones--or at least Keith Richards. He sent me a copy of the wonderful A Stone Alone, a collection of bootleg solo recordings by Richards from the late 70s and early 80s, and it blew me away. Then he sent me this, and I was stunned. Apparentlyt, there's a whole lot more classic musicianship in Keef than I'd ever dreamed.
