With 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. And what a life. Listening obsessively to Chuck Berry and Muddy Waters records as a child in post-war Kent. Learning guitar and forming a band with Mick Jagger and Brian Jones. The Rolling Stones' first fame and success as a bad-boy band. The notorious Redlands drug bust and subsequent series of confrontations with a nervous establishment that led to his enduring image as outlaw and folk hero. Creating immortal riffs such as the ones in 'Jumping Jack Flash' and 'Street Fighting Man' and 'Honky Tonk Women'. Falling in love with Anita Pallenberg and the death of Brian Jones. Tax exile in France, wildfire tours of the US, 'Exile on Main Street' and 'Some Girls'. Ever increasing fame, isolation and addiction. Falling in love with Patti Hansen. Estrangement from Mick Jagger and subsequent reconciliation. Solo albums and performances with his band the Xpensive Winos. Marriage, family and the road that goes on for ever. 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.

Primera edición en rústica de la crónica definitiva de los peligros, los placeres y la decadencia del estrellato del rock and roll: whisky y actrices porno, peleas y accidentes de coche, sobredosis y muerte. Propulsados por todas las drogas que tuvieran a su alcance y espoleados por cantidades obscenas de alcohol, Mötley Crüe camparon a sus anchas durante dos décadas, dejando a su paso un reguero de mujeres corrompidas, habitaciones de hotel arrasadas, coches destrozados, representantes enloquecidos, huesos rotos y víctimas de diversa consideración. Todos estos hechos inenarrables y sus terribles consecuencias forman la espina dorsal de Los trapos sucios, un libro de referencia tanto para los fans del grupo como para todos aquellos interesados en el fenómeno del rock and roll. Narrado personalmente por Tommy, Mick, Vince y Nikki, con aportaciones puntuales de compañeros de viaje como John Corabi, varios ex representantes y un par de ejecutivos discográficos, Los trapos sucios dista mucho de ser un retrato complaciente. Divertido, sí. Patético, entrañable, depravado y repulsivo, también. En cualquier caso, fascinante y absorbente.
