I don't think he wanted anyone else to be the crafter of the band's sound. That's for sure. I think he likes to the be the craftsman. I'm not sure why he likes so many other musicians around. But you're right, he does like to have a muse to bounce ideas off of. I really think that he loves Mick quite a bit and has a certain amount of dependency on him and that's one of the main reasons. His relationship with Richard was certainly a long one and he . . . the way he explains it, these people aren't necessarily brilliant in his eyes, but they do things that turn into something creative, almost by accident. He seems to like to have that experimental spark around him, an atmosphere where failures become inspiration.
