When we last left the Keith Richards-snorted-the-ashes-of-his-deceased-father story, the Rolling Stones guitarist and marvel of modern medicine denied the story.

Now, though, he is reversing himself, again.

In a story in London's Daily Express -- "The World's Greatest Newspaper," according to the masthead -- Keef now says he did snort his dad's ashes. But he he said he didn't mix then with cocaine because that would have been disrespectful.

From the story: “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.

“What I found out is that ingesting your ancestors is a very respectable way of… y’know, he went down a treat.”

Whatever, Keef.
