"What I found out is that ingesting your ancestors is a very respectable way of... y'know, he went down a treat," Richard reportedly says in a new magazine interview according to UK music site Gigwise. The story caused controversy when it first broke with Richards issuing a denial but he has now changed his tune and offered up a correction to the widely reported claims that he mixed his fathers remains with cocaine before having a toot.
"The cocaine bit was rubbish. 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."
