    Keith Richards has never reconciled himself to his second-class status with respect to the Beatles.

    To a man who has toured relentlessly for 50 years, I don't think these comments should come as a surprise.

    True they didn't have a front man that stole all his moves from Tina Turner.

    New Stones album all covers. Keith has a point about the Beatles. Also look forward to another Keith doco.

    Interesting. I don't see anything odd, angry or inaccurate about anything he said in the article.

    For example,

    "Musically, The Beatles had a lovely sound and great songs. But the live thing? They were never quite there.”

    Nothing outrageous there.

    They had two frontmen that didn't move at all.

    Notice also his words were taken out of context. It's not very likely that Keith set up an interview solely to bash the Beatles. This is NME quoting a few bits from a bigger whole... and maybe trying to stir some poop.

    Keef owes a lot of his success to The Beatles, which is something he conveniently forgets, whenever he feels like bashing them.

    Fairly minor comment, probably because the BBC program isn't really worth promoting too hard. Well, he managed to get a headline on NME.com and now most people know about the show. For some really outrageous comments we'll need to wait for the album release.

    This is probably the first time in recent years that I've agreed with him.

    He's entitled. There's nothing out of line or inappropriate in what he said. Fine.
