Keith was born on the 18th December 1943.

Rolling Stone magazine have credited Keith with creating rock’s greatest single body of riffs.

Keith was expelled from Dartford Technical High School for truancy.

Richards has stated that Chuck Berry had an enourmous influence on him.

Keith has sung backing vocals on every single Stones album.

The songwriting partnership of Richards and Jagger is often compared to that of Lennon and McCartney from ‘rival’ band The Beatles.

Keith has a collection of over 3,000 guitars.

Keith has endured a reputation of a hard drug user since the late sixties, having been tried on drugs charges no less than five times. He has of course been clean for a long time - he has found it hard to rid himself of the image of a ‘junkie’.

Columnist Peter Hitchens once described Richards as ‘a capering streak of living gristle who ought to be exhibited as a warning to the young of what drugs can do to you even if you’re lucky enough not to choke on your own vomit’.

in 2006, Keith had cranial surgery after falling out of a tree in Fiji.
