RICHARDS: 'I DID SNORT MY DAD'S ASHES... JUST NOT WITH COKE'

ROLLING STONE KEITH RICHARDS has revisited the controversy surrounding his comment about snorting his father's ashes - insisting his denial was only in relation to mixing it with cocaine. The guitarist's confession sparked a worldwide media frenzy earlier this year (07) when he is alleged to have made the revelation to British music magazine NME. Richards promptly released a statement addressing the comment, claiming he was only joking about inhaling the ashes of his dead dad Bert with the illegal drug. But the 63-year-old has admitted there was some truth to the story. He says, "The cocaine bit was rubbish (not true). I said I chopped him up like cocaine, not with. I'd opened his box up and said, 'Jesus, I've got to do something with dad, y'know, plant the oak tree.' "I pulled the lid off and out comes a bit of dad on the dining room table. I'm going, 'I can't use the brush and dustpan for this'. So you just gotta like, put it together. "What I found out is that ingesting your ancestors is a very respectable way of... y'know, he went down a treat."
