Keith Richards (born 18 December 1943) is the rhythm guitarist and a founding member of Music/TheRollingStones, one of the best known members along with Music/BrianJones and Music/MickJagger, and first became famous with them along with Bill Wyman and Charlie Watts during the BritishInvasion. His inspirations have long included Music/ChuckBerry, Jimmy Reed, Scotty Moore (Music/ElvisPresley's guitarist) and Music/BoDiddley. His style is (predictably) a standard blues rock feel, emphasizing chords and rhythm over 'fastest-gun-in-the-west style.'

Richards stopped playing, knocked the guy out cold by smashing him in the face with his guitar, then resumed playing ''at the exact place in the song where he would've been had he not stopped for a moment.'' Afterwards, Richards went and bailed the man out of jail and said the Rolling Stones wouldn't press charges, because he's also a nice guy.
