Keith Richards and Sir Paul McCartney Write Song Together

added 28 October 2010 at 11.16

The collaboration happened while they were on holiday...

Keith Richards has made the revelation in his new autobiography 'Life'.

The Rolling Stones' guitarist writes:  "He told me that because he was left-handed, he and John could play the guitars like mirrors opposite each other, watching each other's hands. So we started playing like that. We even started composing a song together, a McCartney/Richards number whose lyrics were pinned to the wall for many weeks."

But the track has never been recorded or played live.

Keith Richards is releasing a new compilation of recordings from his solo career, 'Vintage Vinos', on November 2.
