Of all the rules and laws Keith Richards has bent or broken during his illustrious career in Rock, the one blemish on his reputation he might have the most misgivings over is his failure to return library books on time. Speaking with The Sun, the Rolling Stones guitarist confessed to being overdue by a half century on lots of fines on books he took out of the Dartford, Kent library as a teenager. Richards said he treasured his time spent at the library, calling it the place he first got '...a hint there was a place called civilization'. No doubt, there is a librarian in Kent hoping that Keith will cut a check to clear his conscience. The paper calculates that the 50 years of interest on the fines could push what Richards owes into the $25,000 range.
