Full article:

Keith Richards (guitarist, Rolling Stones) : In America we were basically known for heavy, slowish kind of ballads. Time Is On My Side, Tell Me, Heart of Stone, that was what we were known for. Strangely enough that was our thing. Every single was a slow song. Who would believe it? You'd think they'd be clamouring for out-and-out rock and roll, but no, it was the soul ballads that happened for us in America.
