Years after facing off with Gene Simmons, NPR mainstay Terry Gross finally got her chance to confront the St. Francis of Assisi of rock and roll decadence when she interviewed Keith Richards this week for her Fresh Air radio show. The interview is in conjuction with Richard's new autobio (cheekily titled Life -- ha ha), which arguably ties Mark Twain's autobiography as the hottest and most eagerly awaited dish of the Fall.
Thing is, if Richards followed Twain's lead and waited 100 years to finally publish his own life story, he'd still be alive. Now that would make an interesting interview.
