Keith Richards is a cool guy

The internet is full of jokes about Keith Richards, mainly aimed at his inexplicable longevity in the face of his past drug use.  But there's another side to the guy, too.  In addition to being a fantastic guitarist--and an underrated vocalist, too, in my humble opinion--he's a class act who exhibits lots of respect for the musicians who blazed the trail he walks.

He's not the sort of guy to normally put on a tuxedo and play a country song.  He's a rocker, after all.  But he'll do it for Jerry Lee Lewis, and he'll do it on short notice.  That's the sort of guy Richards is.
