They Never Made Him RunBy Grateful LifeThis is a wonderful book; which collects a career-spanning group of previously published interviews with Keith. At best you will have read a very small number of the articles previously; as many were published in magazines with small circulations; and of course the interviews go back as far as 50 years ago. The interviews are almost all substantive and interesting; Even if youve read "Life"; Keiths autobiography; this book will still be interesting to you; as more than a few of things he says in his memoir are at odds with things he said years before in these interviews. It is also interesting to see that there are things Keith has been unusually consistent about over the years; for example mentioning repeatedly the importance he attaches to practicing regularly on an acoustic; rather than electric guitar; because in his view playing an electric guitar permits a player to use flashiness to cover up certain inadequacies I should add that the Musicians on Musicians series - of which this book is a part - is in general terrific.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
