For Stones fans only (and tks to Amanda), here is a neat pre-tour interview with Keith. Everything’s quotable, but this one about the new album tickled me most:
“Mick playing great guitar helped,” Richards continues. “I sleep downstairs and the studio is upstairs. One night I thought I was hearing this old Muddy Waters track I didn’t know, but it turned out to be Mick working on a slide part for “Back of my Hand”. He’s always been a good, smooth acoustic player, but the electric seemed like an untamed beast for him until this year. When I heard him this time I thought, ‘My God! The boy’s finally got it’.
