Keith Richards Happy, Nellcôte, France, 1971

"Happy" is the tenth track on the Rolling Stones' 1972 album, Exile on Main St. With Keith Richards in such a  tranquil place in this image, it's fitting that it was given the same title by photographer Dominique Tarlé. 

"'Happy' was something I did because I was for one time EARLY for a session.... We had nothing to do and had suddenly picked up the guitar and played this riff. So we cut it and it's the record, it's the same.... It was just an afternoon jam that everybody said, Wow, yeah, work on it." - Keith Richards
