Dávno předtím, než se slavný kytarista Keith Richards stal členem legendárních Rolling Stones, ho jeho dědeček Theodore Augustus Dupree, jemuž doma říkali Gus, zasvětil do tajů hudby. Sám totiž hrával v džezové kapele. Kniha Děda Gus a já nám nabízí pohled do intimních zákoutí dětství světoznámého kytaristy. Tento dojímavý příběh vypráví sám Keith Richards. Perokresbovými kolážemi jej ilustrovala Keithova dcera Theodora, jež má jméno po pradědovi. Tato jedinečná obrázková autobiografie vykresluje zvláštní pouto mezi pravnučkou a pradědou a vzdává hold uměleckému nadání, jež se v rodině Richardsových dědí z generace na generaci.

Keith Richards, der Gitarrist der Rolling Stones, besitzt 350 Gitarren - doch nie vergessen wird er seine erste: Im Haus seines Großvaters Gus ruht sie auf dem Klavierkasten und erst, als Keith groß genug ist, die Hand nach ihr auszustrecken, darf er die ersten Akkorde zupfen. Gus lehrt ihn, seinen allerersten Song zu spielen, die Malagueña. Von da an legt Keith die Gitarre kaum mehr aus der Hand ...In dieser außergewöhnlich persönlichen Geschichte schafft Keith Richards seinem Großvater ein Denkmal: Gus bringt ihn nicht nur zur Musik, sondern vermittelt ihm auch durch endlose Spaziergänge und Nächte unter dem Sternenhimmel den Zauber der Kindheit und des Lebens. Eine Bereicherung erfährt die Deluxe-Ausgabe zusätzlich durch Familienfotos aus Keith Richards' Privatbesitz.

Autobiografische documentatie in woord en beeld over de Britse rockgroep.

Here, accompanied by dozens of unique photographs, are the very best of Victor Bockris's infamous interviews, essays, and observations on the stars of downtown Manhattan in the 1970s and 1980s. The internationally acclaimed biographer Bockris was there as a witness, friend, collaborator, and co-conspirator. Some of the stars were founding members of Beat or Punk, others were just passing through. But all of them—rockers, rebels, artists, and intellectuals—revealed more to Bockris than they did to any other writer: Allen Ginsberg, Richard Hell, Andy Warhol, Robert Mapplethorpe, Debbie Harry, William Burroughs, Patti Smith, Marianne Faithfull, Keith Richards, Terry Southern, Martin Amis, and Susan Sontag. Bockris's conclusion—that Punk owed the Beats a big debt and that the Beats were in turn re-animated by the Punks—is argued from the perspective of someone who was in the thick of it, and who loved every minute of it.
