I watched the whole thing too myself and taped it. I think I have 2 VHS tapes on it with all the commercials. It was a beautiful hot day here to.

On early struggles with Brian Jones: "I had a lot of trouble in those days, and I nearly didn't even get in the Stones because I insisted on banging out Chuck Berry songs. "We don't want no rock n roll round here he'd say." But I got through that one pretty quick."

More from Keith on the origin of the ring: "I can't remember exactly when, although it was somewhere in the 70's. Who made it? A great friend of mine, David Courts, who is a great jeweler.

Open tunings are common in blues music and some rock and folk music. In Hawai`ian Music, for Slack-key
