There is another article in DM about Mck&Keith and their fellow pupils from primary school
2: Julie Constantine
Grandmother-of-two Julie Constantine, 68, was pictured next to Sir Mick, also 68, in the 1951 Wentworth Primary School photo.
Taller than her friend, with her hair in pigtails, Mrs Constantine, who now lives in Harwich, Essex, was then seven.
She said: 'Mick was more social and Keith was a little more retiring. Mick was very funny. He had a good sense of humour, I remember that, and I remember cheering him on when he was on the cricket field.'
Mrs Constantine never believed Richards would be able to cope with the limelight after joining the Stones, saying: 'Poor little Keith kept himself to himself. When it was revealed that Keith was part of Mick's group, I couldn't believe it because they were almost opposites.
'We were all in the same class together, all the way through primary school, but I don't ever remember them together. Mick was more my favourite – if there was a bit of fun, he'd be the one laughing the loudest.'
Mrs Constantine, who still owns a picture of herself with Sir Mick at a childhood birthday party, mused: 'I don't ever remember his lips being so big…he just looked like a happy little boy.'

I think so too. Chris was quite good looking in the early/ mid 70's. When he did a gig in LA to promote his first solo album there were all the groupies from town to examine the little Jagger . .

Hmmmm - didn't I read somewhere on this board that the Cherrypicker Incident never happened? And the interpretation of Keith's meeting with Krissy Wood as an attempted pickup is one I've only seen from Mr. Sandford - I wonder where he got that from?

yep - Stonesviking eyewitnesses have assured us it's 100% mythical.
this is from the "official" Stones Anniversary publication?? how in the world did Sanford get the job of writing it???
that's a similar level of oh-no-ness to that Greenfiel crap being chosen to base a movie on

From what I've seen so far, the new book contains a lot of material rehashed from Christopher Sandford's earlier biographies of Mick and Keith. His keith bio was one of the first I read - I enjoyed it at the time but as time went on I have noticed more and more inaccuracies and what you might describe as "tabloid interpretations" of events.

I don't think there is anything official about this book just another person cashing in on the anniversary.

ohh thank you - that's a relief!

Just another unofficial bio with the words 'Rolling Stones' and '50' in the title designed to confuse us all.

Looks like yet another third-rate cash-in by a hack using the same tired stories (some of which, as you point out, being rehashed from another hack's fertile imagination) that we've all read a hundred times. (The mythical Dutch porno festival award for the Performance 'outtakes' being another one).

Next.

Tony Sanchez. I'm pretty sure he mentions it in 'Up and Down with The Rolling Stones'.

The 'cherrypicker incident' - where Keith apparently 'hijacked' it in Gothenburg in 1982 and 'played a 20 minute guitar solo' was an invention by Nick Kent. Up there with his other classic mythological incident from a few days later at Wembley where Keith apparently punched Ronnie full in the face for screwing up the intro to 'She's So Cold' - in front of 72,000 witnesses, only one of whom (the author) appears to recall having seen it. Even the video cameras on the circulating footage dont seem to show a man who's just been biffed on the conk!

That sounds very likely.
