Bob Dylan non si fa intervistare. Quella che dipinge il musicista come schivo, riservato, persino scontroso è in realtà una leggenda metropolitana. Certo, Bob Dylan non ha mai amato essere costretto a tenere rapporti continuativi con la stampa. Ma nel corso della sua lunga carriera ha tenuto molte conferenze, ha partecipato a programmi radiofonici e televisivi, chiacchierato con giornalisti e scrittori, rilasciato interviste mirate. Spesso ha risposto in modo evasivo o sibillino a domande banali e di poco conto, però quando gli si rivolgevano domande intelligenti offriva risposte rivelatrici sulla sua musica e sulla sua vita privata.

Am 12. Juli 1962 gaben die Stones in London ihr erstes Konzert. 1988 hat Martin Scholz Keith Richards zum ersten Mal interviewt.

And he famously described life with the Stones as five years of playing, 20 years of hanging around.

Listen to the original source of Stones myths and legends about gangsters, celebrities, drugs, movies, orgies, death, blood changes, and magnificent songs coming to life. A must-have companion to Keith’s excellent audiobook Life.
