He always demanded cash for every performance.

US currency.

And carried a .38 to enforce the demand, which he did often...according to Keith Richards.

Between Keith and Bob Dylan, you have the entire history of American Rock and Blues history.

No other two individuals know as much.

So it will be written.

I was really impressed by Richards’ book Life. Especially the ideas about the meaning of music and creativity.

Did you like it?

About Bob Dylan, I’m a fanatic and (self-proclaimed) alleged expert. What I don’t remember I can look up in the probably 175 volumes on him and his associates I have.

Why do I always find you saying such dumb things lately. Did they put you on some meds?

Richards is amazing in his own way and an iconic player, but all he ever did was ape the American blues players he heard. He never, not even once, actually played any *real blues. He didn't contribute a fkn thing toward the progression of rock guitar... he kinda sucked actually.
