Keith Richards gave Winehouse and Doherty drug advice

Rolling Stones’ guitarist Keith Richards gave drug advice to musicians Pete Doherty and Amy Winehouse.

Citing similarities between himself and the troubled artists, the veteran rocker told Anothermag.com that he’d warned: “take drugs in your spare time…but don’t mix it up”.

With a history riddled with drug abuse, Richards admits to personally giving Doherty advice, saying: “I’ve had a word with Pete but it don’t make any difference.”

On October 30 the Libertines’ and Babyshambles’ singer was released on bail after being charged with cocaine possession.

Richard’s autobiography ‘Life’ will be released on 26 October.
