Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards has confessed that he is “not a huge fan” of David Bowie.

Speaking in this month’s Uncut magazine, Richards said that ‘Changes’, which appears on Bowie’s fourth album ‘Hunky Dory’, was the only song by the artist that he could “remember”.

"It's all pose. It's all fucking posing. It's nothing to do with music He knows it too,” Richards said.

“I can't think of anything else he's done that would make my hair stand up."

The Rolling Stones film ‘Shine A Light’ is currently on release at cinemas across the world.

The film, directed by Martin Scorsese, follows the band during their two performances at the Beacon Theatre in New York in 2006.

Bowie vs Richards - who's the biggest poser?
