Bill and Keith talked sax

Keith Richards admitted he and President Clinton did talk sax during their "top secret" dinner at Craft. When we asked about their summit two nights later at the Urban Zen Honors, the Rolling Stones guitarist purred, "Unfortunately, it's under wraps," adding, "We talked about saxophones." Clinton, who dined with the king of sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll along with others on Tuesday, plays the sax. Asked about Mick Jagger's new supergroup, which doesn't include him, Richards told us with a trademark Keef scowl, "I haven't heard anything about it. I just wish him luck."

Top of the Bill for Keith

Bill's got sax appeal ... Keith Richards and Bill Clinton

By Gordon Smart
Published: Today

MICK JAGGER may have BOB MARLEY's son and JOSS STONE in his new supergroup - but KEITH RICHARDS is going one better.

Keef recently met BILL CLINTON to discuss a guest slot on a new track.

The former President of the US of A plays saxophone - and Keef reckons that Bill is good enough to chip in on his music.

The unlikely pals, who were filmed together for MARTIN SCORSESE's ROLLING STONES film Shine A Light a few years back, had dinner last week to talk through their plans.

Asked about the meeting, Keith was coy, but hinted: "Unfortunately, it's under wraps - we talked about saxophones."

It can't be good for the lungs playing sax in a studio with a chain-smoker like Keef...

Keith Richards to Work With Bill Clinton?

Posted on Jun 14th 2011 by Julian Marszalek

The Rolling Stones' guitarist Keith Richards' dedication to the band is second-to-none. Indeed, he's brutally honest about the hurt caused by Sir Mick Jagger's decision to go solo back in the 1980s, so it's something of a surprise to hear that man known as "The Human Riff" is looking at collaborating outside of the band -- with former US president Bill Clinton.

The Sun reports that pair met up for dinner last week, fuelling speculation that something might be afoot though probably not with the Rolling Stones. Richards recently told USA Today that his long-dormant side project, the X Pensive Winos, might well be revived some time soon.

"There's a Wino-ish thing in the air," Richards said. "We've got a track or two."

So how would Bill Clinton figure in all of this? The former Commander-In-Chief is known to blow a mean horn, and Richards has hinted as much. Asked about the meeting, Richards cryptically replied, "Unfortunately, it's under wraps -- we talked about saxophones."

Fans of the veteran rockers are still holding out hope that the band will hit the road in 2012 to celebrate their 50th anniversary.

Maybe if they had asked about Super Heavy it would have rung a bell or maybe Keith just be fibbin' again.
