Airing on Netflix.

I have never been a huge Rolling Stones fan, much less a Keith Richards fan, but have gained a new appreciation for both having just watched Under The Influence on Netflix. Highly recommended. There is only as much of the Stones as is needed to give context to Richards and his love of American music, whether it is country, the blues, or early rock and roll. The man, who could so easily be a caricature, is self aware and humble. He loves music, he loves playing music and he loves playing music with his friends most of all. Not a bad thing. Not at all.

I still need to watch this. After reading his autobiography and having always been a Stones fan, I'm more impressed with Keef than ever. He's an inspiration to me (musically, not as a lifestyle choice. I could never keep up! :))

The language may be rough in a couple of spots, but not too bad. Mostly it is incredibly inspirational. Watching him play with those arthritic fingers - wow. He makes it look so easy.

Just finishing this up now, and he did indeed...to come away with the same conclusion I did! :D

Keith is so great to listen to. I'd love to sit and talk with him about the Blues for a few hours. His inspirations are the same as mine, except I add in him. :)
