About this listen
'Electrifying'
New York Times
'A masterpiece'
The Word
'Funny, poignant, brutally honest'
Sunday Telegraph
'Densely packed with incident... immensely readable'
Sunday Times
'Once you begin this, wild, wild horses couldn't drag you away'
Independent
'Life is pretty faultless as the quintessential depiction of the man in full and his extraordinary life and times to date'
The Times
'I was hooked from the start'
Harper's Bazaar
As a member of the Rolling Stones, Keith Richards created the riffs, the lyrics and the songs that roused the world, and over four decades he lived the original rock and roll life: taking the chances he wanted, speaking his mind, and making it all work in a way that no one before him had ever done.
Now, at last, the man himself tells us the story of life in the crossfire hurricane. In Life, Keith narrates his loves and losses, stratospheric fame and success, and the endless stories which have led to his enduring image as outlaw and folk hero.
In a voice that is uniquely and intimately his own, with the disarming honesty that has always been his trademark, Keith Richards brings us the essential life story of our times.
'This is a good, gossipy read. But the best stuff is Keith on music. Check out his wonderful passage on Charlie Watt's drumming'
Evening Standard
'Dark, honest and gleefully indiscreet'
Shortlist
'Life may be the best rock star autobiography ever'
Classic Rock
'A hilarious, ribald and often shocking tale told elegantly and with much candidness'
Catholic Herald
'The fact that Keith is still alive to tell the story is incredible'
Sunday Express S Magazine©2010 Keith Richards (P)2010 Orion Publishing Group Limited

great autobiography of an unusual man
I really enjoyed this book on many levels; the POV of Keith & other in his life, the phases of his life, musicianship, the circles he ran in, his relationships with important people in his life, etc.
The only drawback was the sharing of reading it as Keith between 2 people.

Superb story
I had a deep wish to fully understand the story behind Keith in the band.
This book doesn’t disappoint, It’s so good I read it twice.
It’s only rock and roll but I liked it!

Loved it!
Keith's recount of his life is amazing. Everything from being picked on by the local constabulary, to consuming enough 'smack', that it's shocking he is still alive. Keith passion for guitar and music is very touching and inspiring. Well done. Having Johnny Depp and the main man himself narrate the book is truly a worthwhile listen.

Johnny Depp can act great. Joe Hurley is hopeless.
Johnny Depp can act great. Joe Hurley is hopeless.
I had to fast forward to hear Johnny Depp came on again. Keith reading his book was very authentic and entertaining. Agreat effort.

Narration issue
Keith should have narrated the whole thing. Was annoyed when the accents changed so significantly. Great story though, interesting life.

What a story
This book is best summed up by this quote ..
“Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!”
Great narration and a great insight
