Keith Richards, the famous guitarist for The Rolling Stones, is now 82 years old. He recently shared the happy news of becoming a great-grandfather.
Many once thought Mr. Richards might not live this long, given his past lifestyle. He says he learned to listen to his body and slow down to keep going. He quit smoking cigarettes six years ago and now drinks in moderation.
The band has also released a new album called "Foreign Tongues." This is the band's third album since 2015, following "Blue & Lonesome" and "Hackney Diamonds."
Mr. Richards notes that his relationship with Mick Jagger is much calmer these days. They no longer "joust" as much, focusing on making music together.
Despite the modern world, Mr. Richards prefers "the old ways" when it comes to music. He feels new technology, like AI and phones, hasn't truly helped music. He misses cassette tapes and avoids most modern tech.
