Read from December 28, 2010 to January 01, 2011

Keith has always fascinated me. There's that joke about the end of the world and there will be cockroaches and Keith. He would enjoy that joke. He has a great voice, it's very stream-of-consciousness and shot from the hip. I did read it immediately after reading a biography of him so camparing the two points of view was enlightening. As with most (all?) autobiographies, he certainly airbrushes over the unsavory parts, but to his credit he mentions that a great party is the one you don't remember. I thoroughly enjoyed this read. He's an interesting icon who was born during WWII and was an important voice to emerge from the new Great Britain. From both accounts, he is a loyal man who loves his family, friends and his music. I'm good with that.
