Back when Keith Richards was 140 years old
Fun thing is, he is the youngest of all Stones.
He looks like a 70's porn star or actual vampire.
@@einundsiebenziger5488 You don't know that for certain. You *can't* know that, in fact, because Stones can't be carbon-14 dated. The only hope for getting a proper measurement would be if he were to have attracted some kind of organic material -- you know, like moss or something. And we already know that's *never gonna happen!*
I had a good chuckle at this. Cheers dude have a great day
He always looks great
this is the first time I've been able to understand more then 10% of what Richards is saying.
Congratulations! Pretty soon you'll be eligible to begin studying Ozzy Osbourne!

Keith Richards is beyond punk.
I like how his take is actually pretty neutral. He doesn't say it's a dumb fad or the next big thing, he just says they're making music from what they grew up hearing which is what all musicians do.
I super expected him to slam it. Was pleasantly surprised. He kinda just described punk as it is.
Amazing haircut
Yes
Self cut..😂
Nice new teeth too
Amazing amazing
He says he cuts his own hair
Incredibly good looking
Yeah….😍
Mick Jones of The Clash was a big Keith Richards fan.
When you compare this clip with the Old Grey Whistle Test interview from 1974 it's noticeable how much more healthy and sober he seems here.
Right?
Yeah… I thought he’d be really wasted by this time, but h3 looks super clean and sharp…I don5 know how long it lasted, but it is amaz8ng.
His teeth grew back 😬
He’s not sober, he’s just off the brown. Though he did relapse in 1978. still, he does look much better. Around ‘74, he looked like a vampire.
@Alastair Green either that or he went to the dentist
6 days before Some Girls was released
I hate that album. For me, everything after Let it Bleed blows. Such crap.
@@kyokogodai-ir6hy do you seriously dislike exile on main street and sticky fingers
Yes and some nice defiant Punk on the Some girls LP 😜❗
@@kyokogodai-ir6hySo you like Let it Bleed but hate Sticky Fingers? Ok then. That’s a new one on me. I mean, you do you, but with most people the cut-off point is usually Exile or Goat’s Head Soup. I’m guessing you must be a Brian Jones loyalist, as Let It Bleed was the last album he played on (and he only barely played anything on it). Even if that’s the case, it’s still kind of weird. Most Brian people stop at Beggar’s Banquet.
Like I said, you do you 👍
For me, Some Girls was the last great Stones album… not to mention the first great Stones album in roughly 6 years. It was a hell of a comeback after a series of increasingly disappointing albums that began with Goat’s Head Soup in ‘73. A lot of the reason why Some Girls kicked ass was because it was their response to not only punk, but disco too. They saw all these new trends that were making them seem like yesterday’s papers (pun intended), and it put a fire under their butts.
Some Girls was also their last stand. After that it was all downhill. Tattoo You is a great album, but it’s mainly just a collection of old outtakes. Not what I’d consider an actual album.
This was the last year Keith looked young. After he cleaned up he looked about 55 for the next 30 years
True
I imagine he went after the booze and coke way harder after ditching the junk. Strangely enough, heroin has less of an aging effect and damage to internal organs than the other two.
I never really thought of satisfaction as a punk style song but I suppose it kind of is.
I could listen to Keef for hours
I like how you can get a sense of that young Keith but can totally tell which direction he was heading too as well.
Glad he came out clean on the other side also that he is still out in the world doing his thing ❤
The Stones had already been going for 15 years at this time, middle aged and not so young.
@@scottsears4996 But Keith Richards definitely had that sense of his early to late 60s vibe here but it’s slowly translating to that look we always knew by him.
At the time, I knew they were getting old, but I never imagined what he'd look like at 70 or 80 or that he and the band would even still be going. He does look like a baby. But he was 35.
Keith looked great in this interview! Compared to a few years prior, he looked almost like he did in '66-'68 in this video snippet. He didn't maintain this for very long, though. Lol
Lol 1972-1975 Keith looked like a vampire
This was during the brief period of complete abstinence that came in the wake of his big ‘78 bust. He kicked the H completely, stayed 100% clean and sober for a short while, then replaced his old H habit with copious amounts of alcohol and cocaine, which physically age you much faster than opiates do. Whatever ‘youthful’ looks he still had at this point were about to disappear forever.
The small window between heroin and alcohol when keith richards actually looked healthy.
Cocaine was a pretty major factor as well.
@@Shikta-poobah67 No doubt! I'm glad that he kicked heroin but he was still doing coke and alcohol for years. The H would have done him in.
He looks like he's transitioning at the this point. Looks healthy, new teeth but still getting high.
@@BrianHassett-ih3jp Keith is the only person I know of for whom "getting clean" meant "stop doing just that one particular drug."
For a while it really was:
"Hey Keith, want some heroin?"
"No, I'm clean."
"Cocaine?"
"Yeah, sure. And hand me my bottle of Jack, would ya?"
By the way, he actually looks pretty good at 80, now that he really has stopped with the drugs and doesn't really drink anymore. I think he even quit smoking.
@@camicawber Right. Once he got off the horse he was doing coke for decades. Still boozing. Ronnie used to go to rehab to clean-up temprarily.
OMG, I can't believe he used to look like that! I've only seen him as old man!
He's so naturally smooth. Never feels a bit of insecurity or the need to put on airs. Is he wearing eyeliner? Looks good. Perpetually Cool Keef.
He was smacked out of his mind here, lol.
@@angrytater2456 He looks rather clean here look back at him in 74
@@shannonpatrick77 He's not out of his mind here but he seems pretty high.
Coolest thing about him is that he wasn't in people's faces about it and all snotty about it.
Personality-wise he was well put-together for a guy that was probably still withdrawing from heroin :)
Dare I say he looks quite handsome here
If I'm not mistaken this was the year he kicked heroin.what a feat to be able to do that and go forward and still put out the great music and timeless riffs.not to mention the family man he was and is.🙏
Yes striaght out of rehab...busted in Toronto in 77 and went to rehab
It helps that he was already one of the wealthiest rock stars on earth at the time. Kicking opiates is extremely unpleasant no matter what, but when you can afford in-home healthcare and blood transfusions it tends to lighten the pain a bit.
Arrêté ???
Heu
@@Shikta-poobah67yep, many forget that wealthy stars can afford to roll the wagon off a cliff with their eyes closed. There’s always that great big bed of money waiting at the bottom to soften the landing. Although in Keith’s case that wouldn’t have been too easy because a few years prior to this interview the whole band had serious financial problems to deal with and were living in France to resolve tax problems.
@@Pulsonar Yes, the whole tax exile period in the early to mid 70’s, that famously resulted in the Exile On Main Street recording sessions. I don’t remember exactly when that was all resolved, but I would imagine that by the time of this interview (Some Girls era) they were back on their feet, financially speaking.
Keith looks really good here. I think this was after he got busted with all that dope in Toronto and was forced to clean up for a bit. Then he stayed away from heroin for the most part but plunged into coke, pills, and alcoholism.
He looks youthful and healthy here and I like his haircut. I guess he said he stayed up for 5 days straight making Some Girls with Ronnie...so I'm sure there were some drugs involved in that escapade. Lol. I really like Some Girls it's probably their best album IMO after the big 4 from 68-72.
Very sad about Charlie's passing. The band will never be the same. Nobody can say it's really a tragedy though the guy led an awesome and full life.
This was filmed in Woodstock were the band prepared for the 1978 tour. Keith kicked heroin during this rehearsal period, lying on the couch in Mick's house and nursed by Mick and Jerry Hall. True story.
@@RobinSchoutenRS Cool. Yeah, I read several books on Keith and the Stones and heard that story. I'm a Stones junkie as well. Cheers!
@@STONESGAM nursed??
@@angelicaquirarte It's an English thing....
@@danielc1978 People use that term (in this context) here in America as well. I’m not sure what the confusion was about.
Kieth and Anita had a flat in NYC in mid-70's and were known admirers/supporters of Television and other proto-punk bands on the CBGB-MaxKansas scene. When asked about "Punk" in June 1978, I presume most British music fans would be thinking of the highly publicized and sensationalized London fashion/music movement of '76-'77.
Yeah -- any interviews I've seen with that question from that period have the artist responding specifically what they thought about the Pistols, Damned, Clash, Ramones etc. (like the Graham Parker one where he said about the Stranglers "I didn't like the Doors the first time around...")
"It was more like a theatre than a rock n roll show."
Yup.
Yeah says the band who dressed up in wizards outfits and tried to sound black.
@@rigsby1454 you're talking about an album cover not their live show. As for trying to sound black - they were just emulating the music that they liked.
wrong
@Yes No It was a melting pot of jazz, blues and country. So it was a little of everything.
@ndjfksnwvehsbdjckvkkfss Dont know who "he" is, but you go on and have your opinion. Have a pleasant afternoon 👋🏽
He looks so good here
He always had a way with words... others might have said "more show than substance"... but he nails it with "theatre". While looking high, as usual..
I think he had more substance..
.@@user-wr3gp1uv1q More *substances,* in any case..
Superficial people thought it had no substance
He looks good in this interview.
Shattered and When The Whip Come Down are great "punk-like" songs.
Lies also...very punk style playing.
@@paull.6026 Let's not forget Respectable...
That whole album has a new wave vibe to it
Well, considering that Some Girls was basically their reaction/response to punk (as well as disco and country pop), it stands to reason. It was their last great album.
I remember at the time when Some Girls came out thinking here's the Stones letting everyone know they're still relevant. Still the Stones, but the album had that new wave edge and energy to it, and I think one of their best albums of all time.
Can't argue with that. 40% Music, 40% attitude, 20% theatre.

Punk music at it's finest was music kids could dig that the adults found thoroughly obnoxious. -Jerry Garcia
There's one hippie that understood it.
Yeah, the more you learn about the Dead, the more you realize that they were just as far outside the mainstream as the punks were. Their improvising or "jamming" probably owes as much to the jazz world as to the rock world. I've got more respect for them than about 3/4 of the rock world.
A beautiful haircut. He's looking in better health than a few years prior.
Amazing how much your body can take.
Being mega rich and having access to premium healthcare kind of helps too.
@@Shikta-poobah67Not nearly as much as genetics. He said in his book he hardly ever got sick and had a wicked immune system. If you get a yearly flu, you’re doomed to 70 tops lmao
A good immune system can kill off early signs of what killed ultra rich people like Steve Jobs, who hardly even partied or abused his body probably. Genetics kept Keith alive this long. But hey, just my stoned midnight theory.

My hero! I'd like to have the buzz that kept daily, at this second!
Keith looked great here in 78 like he did in the 60s but seemed to look a lot older and worse for the wear in the "start me up" video from 1981 or 1982 which was only 3-4 years later
Alcohol and giving up heroin
Cocaine was also a major factor during that period.
I had a dream not too long ago i had this exact same haircut
A man of quality.
A “man of wealth and taste” even🤣
@@dreameroftheday.8381 No, that would be Mick.
@@kamuelalee fair enough🤣
A challenge from a new generation of Rock’n Rollers coming up, and Keith knew that.
He doesn’t criticize the punks too much cause it was pretty much what The Stones were doing in 1963-64.
Keith mentions he wasn't in the UK when punk happened. If he had been he'd not have been so unexcited by it. First I've heard that punk bands were inspired by early Stones records! The impact might have been brief but it was massive. Bands like The Fall, Undertones, Sex Pistols, Sham 69. X-Ray Spex made old stadium rockers look well past their sell by date - and the post-punk follow up bands like Joy Division, The Smiths etc etc were even more relevant. Keith is a top bloke but he missed out on something that he might have enjoyed being away from grim old Blighty.
Nearly 50 years on and you're still debating the punk vs. rock and roll argument. Get over it.
Punk started in the U.S. at CBGB's with The Ramones.
"Blix" in 1985's "Legend", a goblin designed by Rob Bottin was modeled after Keith. Suggestion came from the performer Alice Playten. I dare you to look.
Funny how Keith doesn't realize he's Punk . Satisfaction and Get off my cloud were as Punk as it gets and then Some girls came out . The Punk came out of the Stones then . I was in the Punk bars then we all smiled when Shattered ,When the whip comes down were and Respectable we're on that LP . Undercover was very alternative and some Grung there also. Keith should flatter himself sometimes. He worked also with Tim Carol band also. Simply Keith you're amazing 😎
You mean the Jim Carroll Band? Some Girls was a direct response to both punk and disco, which both got big at the same time, and the Stones had been lagging for quite some time by ‘78. They hadn’t made an interesting album since Exile, and that was 6 years prior in ‘72. Punk reminded them who they really were and put a fire under their butts. Keith especially came up with some great stuff on that album. “Before They Make Me Run” is one of my favorite Stones tunes ever.
@@Shikta-poobah67implying Black and blue or It's only RnR are not interesting
@@mariuspoppFM Yep. That’s right, they aren’t. Not when compared to what came before or after. Maybe a few good songs on “It’s Only R&R”, but Black And Blue is easily the worst album of their initial 20 year run. Even Keith himself admitted that B&B was just a tool for auditioning a new 2nd guitarist. There’s a reason they almost never play any songs from that one live. It was a low point. Overall the ‘74-‘77 period was their absolute 70’s nadir. You can also include Goat’s Head Soup in that category, though it’s slightly better.
The ironic part about this is that when they reissued those two albums (It’s Only R&R, Goat’s Head Soup), they included some outtakes that were way better than any of the actual album tracks. It was quite a head scratcher. Why would you throw away your best material? It was a strange choice for sure. A lot of bad decisions were being made back then.
Goat’s Head Soup is an awesome awesome album
This is why Keith is a star. Great looking and he summed up punk it about 10 words.
He did?
0:36@@Shikta-poobah67
@@erictrenbeath9680 Derp
@@Shikta-poobah67 Yeah, he did. I was a teen then and I pretty much thought the same thing. They had a feel for what they heard when they were kids and they got up and did it, but most of them at least didnt really get the music thing together before they got up their and did it. In other words they werent really good at playing their instruments. Some, of course were, such as bands like the Clash. People can and will debate that, of course, but that was Keiths take, and as a 16 year old then that was my take as well, at the time
@@jeffwatts1126 I just have to wonder, was your ‘take’ informed by firsthand experience? Mine was, and still is. That said, and let me be clear here… I’m not trying to be snarky or jabby… I’m just saying that everything you’ve said here thus far strikes me as the viewpoint of someone who has only seen punk from the outside. Again, I’m really not trying to be rude, and I’ve never been real big on tooting my own horn, but firsthand experience does count for something, you know?
Unless one was actually taking part in it, then they’ll never understand the complexities and the nuance of punk. Something that seems so simple on the surface can actually be anything but once you’ve immersed yourself in it. The reality was that it was a very multifaceted movement. People coming into it from all walks of life (at least here in America), for all kinds of different reasons. The only common bond we all shared was that we desperately and passionately wanted change. *REAL* change. Something completely new to wash the stale flavor of the bedenimed hippie 70’s off of our palates for good. A complete break with that shit. Yes, at it’s core it was mainly a return to the brevity and immediacy of pre-hippie rock and roll, but with more than a few radical twists on the original blueprint. If you were in it for the nostalgia angle then you were in the wrong place. Go see Sha-Na-Na instead.
Anyway, what Keith’s saying here goes well beyond oversimplification. “Theater”? Maybe in England. *NOT* in my experience. Very few of us gave a single shit about the fashion angle. Those who did were typically laughed out the door, and then they’d usually scurry off to trendier scenes like new wave. If you were all in on punk then that shit mattered very little. It was all just for fun and shock value (the clothes, hair, spikes, etc). It took a far back seat to the music, energy, and attitude.
In other words, if anyone actually believes that Keith, who confesses here that he wasn’t even around to experience it as it was happening, is “summing up punk” in a single sentence, then they are basking in the deepest recesses of ignorance.
I don’t know how to put it any more politely than that.
Genioooooooooo 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷
Good grief, some of the people in the comments with their _all-holy Punk_ apologia.
Do they even know that the biggest Punk bands ever were the results of casting calls/commercial projects by entrepreneurial managers? Ever heard of Malcolm McLaren and Bernie Rhodes? Even the Ramones systematically developed their entire visual image as a business venture, with the guidance and direction of Arturo Vega, before they ever played a single note together in public. The four leather jackets, ripped jeans, and the haircuts were as "natural" or "organic" as the The Beatles' suits, pointy tipped boots, and mop tops.
The Clash wrote about social and political issues because Bernie Rhodes told them to, as a calculated strategy to get popular. Even Joe Strummer always admitted that Rhodes "constructed The Clash".
Imagine being Keith in the late '70s and early '80s and seeing somebody like Johnny Thunders base his entire identity on him... How could he not piss himself laughing? He must have felt like Elvis when he participated in an Elvis impersonator contest incognito for fun - and only made it to third place!
McLaren reluctantly got involved with the pistols but he never formed them, Rhodes influenced the clash with his situationist background but they wrote the songs,( they sacked Bernie around 78/79) ,the Ramones just liked basic rock and roll and girl groups from the sixties,none of them were manufactured like the monkees
Sounds like he's talking about British punk. Most of that was theater. They're the ones that turned it into a costume party.
Love to see a non-British punk snob. Honestly, the Stranglers out-punked all the punks as a prog rock band over there.
From memory, being kid living in the UK in 76.
The essence of UK 'punk' seemed only to truly exist in London.
The rest of the UK just brought the music, dressed up, and did each others hair

The punk era inspired just as many bands as the 60’s era stands up just as well but a lot bandwagon jumpers.

They grossed 2 billion since 1989 so I don’t think so.

So Good!
Just before he suddenly aged
Yes, there was a turning point a few years later, when the immediate boyishness disappeared.
@@srenkaarepetersen9034 happens to us all
It was the alcohol, he got clean off heroin and became a drunk which is much more a poison, also never wrote a song again. Alcohol is the worst drug ever! Just look at Morrison and Moon! Alcohol was there drug and looked thirty years older! Heroin doesn't change your appearance when you can afford it!
A sudden heavy coke and alcohol habit will do that.
lol yeah he was only 39 on the 1982 tour and he already looked 50
He outlived Punk, Disco and we will definitly outlive rap and Hip hop. Disco was actually a lot of fun.
Disco sucked. always will.
He didn't outlive punk, punk is still doing great after 40 years.
Basically the Stones sowed the seeds for Hard Rock/Heavy Metal/Glam and Punk that came after despite not being any of those.
Ok, but it’s not like they were solely responsible for sowing those seeds. There were thousands of other bands laying the groundwork for genres to come at the same time, and even then there were a lot more who predated the Stones by at least a decade. They were just part of a much larger lineage of bands who shaped everything that came in their wake, albeit one of the biggies, for sure.
Hair was perfect!
🖤
He's right, of course.
Punk rock was about theater according to Boy George.
Keith in his older age definitely has a beautiful smile. I saw a little of that in this video..
We've come a long way in microphones since.
The Man who made the music
I thought that was Devo! (You know, the band that did that song "Satisfaction"?)

That was Iggy Pop
2024 Keith Richards age 82 by then

At what point did Keith wear underliner as an every day thing?
Around 1969.
69
according to Johnny Rotten, Mick Jagger paid for Sid Vicious's lawyer after Sid got arrested in NYC on murder charges.
He actually looks pretty good there. Cool.
Peter Gabriel dabbled with a punk themed sound with the song "The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway". And definitely did a punk rock version of the song, foe some of his concert shows after he went solo in 1975. Several years ahead of punk.
How about the Kinks' "Father Christmas", about a bunch of young thugs beating up poor St. Nick? That's *pure* punk! It was recorded in 1976 and released in '77, and the B-side of the single is called "Prince of the Punks" -- loads of punk bands from Green Day to Bad Religion have covered the song, too. And it later wound up on their album "Misfits", which is also the name of a legendary punk band! (Okay, now that's just getting silly...)

Watched some Pirates of Caribbean with my kids last night. Keef is all I see in Jack Sparrow. Makes it better actually.
Yeah, Keefs right- pure theatre with Malcom Maclaren as artistic director! Maclaren ran a shop in the King's Road called "Sex" with Vivienne Westwood and created The Pistols as an advertising medium to flog her Punky "Seditionaries" range of clothing. They'd been flogging vintage 50s clothes and ephemora since 1973 but that particular craze was fading away. The 50s nostalgia craze had begun in 1972 with the film American Graffiti, which led to Happy Days and ultimately Grease.
The Sex Pistols were a great band musically when Glen Matlock was in the band, before Sid joined and Malcolm turned the whole thing into a circus.
Never mind the Bollocks had great songs from beginning to end.
The Filthy Lucre Live record is incredible if you haven't heard it. To me it sounds like their victory lap.
Cool
Indestructible,,,
The early Who records were certainly punk like My Generation. Even Taxman by the Beatles sounds Punkish
And let’s not forget bands like the Kinks and the Yardbirds, whose early recordings were just as punk as anything in the 70’s. Hell, “You Really Got Me” was kind of the original template for punk.
Giggle, Paul Weller ripped off Macca's lead riff from Taxman with The Jam's "What You Give Is What You Get".
IMO Dylan was punk before Keith
@@AudSpgheti Bob Dylan was not punk in the slightest. He began as a folk singer in the mold of Woody Guthrie and went electric because of the Beatles and the Stones.

💯 I agree 🇬🇧
Um, there were literally *TONS* of amazing punk bands… the Ramones being but one out of thousands. Punk was a global movement. There were about as many bands as there are stars in the Milky Way. Some were awful, some were amazing. Many more were somewhere in between.
@@Shikta-poobah67 You’re right too man.I saw a good few in the early days 🇬🇧.
@@Essexgeezer As did I (and on the rare occasion still do). When it was new and exciting, punk was a 24-7 assault on the senses. Never a dull moment. Even the really awful bands played with a level of intensity that few bands today do. The really good ones were just unbelievably good. It was a really special moment in time and I was lucky to experience some of it.

Americans, punk fans and Richards never understood punk. They all think it is loud fast music. Nope
@@ejtattersall156 What you're describing is just punk rockers in general after the second wave of punk. Anything resembling Blondie, Ian Dury, or Devo from the first wave was excised, and anything that didn't sound like the Ramones, the Exploited, or any DC hardcore act was called fake punk. Also, Americans were definitely able to understand punk, since the roots of the genre can be traced back to the US.

Every year, aging rockers meet their maker, except for Keef. Chuck Norris of Rock and roll.
i think some punk was really well played musically, and there were some classic songs in that time.. but I've become a lot more thoughtful now than i was, I'm more like a Scottish Johnny Cash in his sad songs times these days than any kind of punk these days, but i hope that one day even one of my songs is seen as a classic but the way things are going I'll be surprised if i even get views..
Where can we hear ye?
The Keith Richards of 1978 looks SO MUCH different than the Keith of 1981. I know there's the withdrawal that helped cause the change. Did he also get tattoos above his eyes? I read that somewhere.
