Ex-Rolling Stone Bill Wyman has been shining a light on his life, telling all in a revealing new interview with Classic Rock. In it we get new details regarding his departure, some juicy new tidbits on the band’s finances, and his opinion on what The Stones should be doing.
The notoriously fastidious bassist has already written 14 books, detailing his life before, during and after his tenure with The Stones, and regarding his legendary archiving of memorabilia and facts, Wyman suggests that: “It probably started off with me collecting a few things thinking we were going to be around for maybe a year or two, maybe on television once, have two or three records, and I wanted to leave a few things for my son, who was eight months old when I joined the Stones, so he knew his dad was in a band once, and played a couple of shows [laughs].”
