About this ebook
From the early days of The Rolling Stones, with a relatively baby-faced 'Keef' sporting a hounds-tooth jacket, to his heroic piratical look of the present day, rock's indestructible hero has been photographed by many people over half a century. Featuring more than 300 photographs in colour and black-and-white. Among those who took the pictures in this book are legendary photographers Jim Marshall, Terry O'Neill, Deborah Feingold, Neil Preston and Mark Seliger. If many of Keith Richards' adventures have passed into folklore, never before has there been quite such a comprehensive collection of portraits and candid shots collected to match the passing moments: police busts, global superstardom, a legendary Glastonbury set, a satisfying appearance in the Pirates Of The Caribbean movie franchise and an unlikely 2008 advertising stint as a lifestyle icon for Louis Vuitton, as photographed by Annie Leibowitz. Beautifully produced and elegantly designed, Keith Richards: A Life In Pictures is simply the must-have book of the year.

Keith Richards: A Life In Pictures
“I came on board towards the end of the project,” says Neill. “I was brought in to write the introduction and, because of my extensive Stones knowledge, accurately caption the images and provide relevant quotes where necessary.”
Neill is no stranger to writing about rockstars, having previously published books on The Who, The Faces and The Beatles. With the addition of Neill’s expertise, Keith Richards: A Life In Pictures provides an incredibly in-depth exploration of the guitarist’s career and personal life.
“Keith has lived his life out in public to such a great extent,” says Neill. “Much of what is in the book is out there and in his own words. Richards’ life has been pretty much an open book.”
A Life In Pictures illustrates the many ecstatic highs and absolute lows Richards has experienced throughout his professional life. The book dates back to the Stones’ formation in 1962, and brings us right up to the band’s Zip Code tour of 2015. In Neill’s introduction, he writes that, “No matter how low the gutter, Keith was always slightly above it.” This is followed by a direct quote from Richards, saying, “I’d rather be a legend than a dead legend.”
A particularly confronting spread of images shows Richards during one of his battles wit
