The 65-year-old rocker tells PW that he collected a huge amount of memorabilia about the Stones over the years: "three million words on the computer, as well as attics and a barn full of physical stuff. Everybody thought I was mad when I started collecting it but I did it for my kid, who was eight months old when I joined the Stones. I thought I'd better keep a few things just in case we only lasted a year." PW salutes the result, "Rolling with...
...think the mixture of the two has helped her reach such success. If you are a skater-punk-rocker then you certainly would be drawn to Avril for her rockin’ image. Even my mom likes “Complicated.” And she usually only listens to Elton John...

It's been raining in Lijiang for a solid month. Not far from...
...happened, history was with the guitar; Elvis and Buddy Holly, B.B. King and Bo Diddley, The Beatles and the Stones, Jimi Hendrix and Jeff Beck, ad infinitum ad gloriam, closed that case. And Jerry Lee would be the definitive piano rocker in part because he was, in the music's infancy, one of its last. (The saxophone, primal ax of early rock, also went nearly extinct.) He worked under another disadvantage: A pianist, unlike a guitarist, couldn't take his instrument to a gig; at least back then he didn't. Janes ascribes some of Lewis' extreme behavior...
