Who was Keith Richards according to George Harrison

What was the Beatle’s opinion that was fundamental to the emergence of the Rolling Stones?

Although John Lennon It is Paul McCartney were mainly responsible for the success of “I Wanna Be Your Man” of the Rolling Stonesa major responsible for the band’s success was Beatles, George Harrison, who played a crucial role in the British band’s early career by introducing them to their manager Dick Rowethe president of Decca Records.

Rowe initially refused the opportunity to sign a contract with Fab Fourbut with the Rolling Stones He acted differently and didn’t let this second chance slip away. After a brief meeting, the contract was signed, and thus began the story of one of the biggest rock bands in the world.

George Harrisonin a statement to his book “George Harrison: Interviews and Encounters” and later shared on the website Far Out Magazine(via Igor Miranda website) spoke especially about one of the members of the Rolling Stones: Keith Richards.

Keith He is one of the best rhythm guitarists in rock. I don’t think he’s very good at solos. In a way, I feel a connection between us. What we do is record records. They feature some good guitar parts, good songs, good lyrics or whatever. But basically they are albums. Keith He doesn’t just dedicate himself to playing the guitar. He writes songs and makes records. Either way, you can’t beat the riff of ‘Satisfaction’, do you know what I mean? It’s simple little things like that, and I think he does it really well. I like a lot Keith” said the former Beatle via Igor Miranda website.
