For fifty years, Keith Richards has been "the straw that stirs the drink" for that institution that we know as 'The Rolling Stones'. He has more credibility than any other artist, in any field, amongst the legends in their own genres. Despite what goes on around him and any pressures to mold his character, Keith is true to himself, his band, and the music that he loves. And that is what we love the most about him. Thank you, Keith Richards, for making this world a better place...

You don't know, you weren't there, but I doubt you'd want to experience what they did so you could LEARN what the Blues are truly about. One more thing: whites tend to play blues with too many notes - which spoils it. So WHAT was your question again. Holly?
