Кейту Ричардсу исполнилось, страшно сказать, 65 лет! Он на несколько месяцев моложе своего старого друга, соавтора песен и коллеги по Rolling Stones Мика Джеггера, которому шестьдесят с половиной стукнуло еще в июле. Ветераны стареют, но души их по-прежнему молоды. Великолепная форма музыкантов, продемонстрированная ими в последнем альбоме и во время турне в его поддержку, очень впечатляет. В честь такого знаменательного дня публикуем в подлиннике шуточный материал, подобранный Чипом Хилтоном в пршлом году, и тоже ко дню рождения маэстро.
