Keef really was measured in his drug use but he has a reputation and it follows him. He, along with the other Stones are very fit in comparison to some bands that are trying to hang on. Alcohol was ultimately what Keith had to beat, that was the only addiction he ever battled.

Here's a scorecard for anyone who wants to play along. Mark them off as they drop dead:




For some reason both Fats Domino and Little Richard were left off. Also half the Everly Brothers are still with us.
