He was known for his work with the Rolling Stones, co-authoring Rolling with the Stones (2003), and The Stones – A History in Cartoons (2006) with Bill Wyman plus The Stones in the Park (2009) about the band’s pivotal 1969 concert.
...editing Rolling Stones 50, the band’s official anniversary book in 2012 plus his final book was the first official, in-depth history of the Rolling Stones told through the band’s television and radio broadcasts called “Rolling Stones on Air in the Sixties”"

"As we say in England, it can get a bit trainspottery"

RIP Richard....Thanks for the great reads....

I dealt with Richard when he was working with Bill on Rolling with the Stones. A true English genteman, very professional, very motivated as well as very considerate. It's really sad news to see him gone at such a young age.
RIP Richard!

Lately Richard Havers seems to have been The Stones' writer of choice when it came to text for sleeve notes and for the recent On Air book.

They'll need a replacement... modesty forbids etc.
