Damn me to hell, but in my lead up to the Stones week in OZ next week, I have been getting into my old DVDs, CDs and even some Jagger solo.
Got my guitar teach to go thru a few Mick songs tonight with me.
It has been great to rediscover Kow Tow, Shoot Off Ya Mouth, Evening Gown, Party Doll, Hang on to Me Tonight, Throwaway, Wired All Night.
Every time I hear Kow Tow it brings me back to hearing the chorus for the first time ..
"I won't bow down, I won't kow tow
Won't be seen to, won't be lied to
I won't turn tail, won't be blackmailed by you"
and of course the ripping "Ooh, ooh, ooh"
man i love this band, even their 'underrated shit-canned' solo stuff lights up my world.
"Ooh, ooh, ooh"

Great songs on PC, but sadly the bad production brings down the album. Kow Tow and Party Doll are the best tracks on it. |

Always liked "Shoot off your mouth" - it rips apart, tearing up with maximum overflow right from the start - like a classic Little Richard tune with Mick's own lascivious glee, bite, and bark. This is followed by the exciting, dangerously riveting and 'cinematic' "Peace for the Wicked"
"Throwaway" opens with the promise of a fantastic journey. Also loved "Radio Control" for its ferocious angst. One more favourite of mine is the ending of "Say you will" which is more in the classic Stones style.
This album will always remain with me as a great companion piece to 'Dirty Work' from that similar era. |

Say You Will is indeed a beautiful ballad. It had na incredibly nice video but I haven't seen it in years. |

I recently bought live aid on dvd. I like the first song that Jagger does on his own in his solo set. Whats it called. |

Wandering Spirit is easily my favorite album of his, songs like Wired All Night, Put Me In The Trash and Mother Of A Man are good rockers, and Don't Tear Me Up is one of my favorite songs lyrically Mick ever did, would have been a great stones ballad. I certainly like it better than most of the ballads on VL. Evening Gown and the title cut are great too. |

Just Another Night (from She's The Boss). |

The Say You Will video is incredible... '80s-era romantic kitsch to the Nth power! As for the feature long video for the 1st solo album... You gotta love Mick a lot to watch it, it's hilariously silly! But the man is sooo lovable...  
There's some good songs on Primitive Cool. The title track and War Baby are my personal favorites. |

Mother Of A Man is awesome, pure "Stones" like rocker |

Oh yeah, Just Another Night... Another cool track. And believe it or not, it was a hit at the time of release. In fact, Mick's 1st solo album was the best received of the 4. Too bad Wandering Spirit didn't get the attention it deserved. Well, at least it meant more Stones albums for us, so I won't complain too much! |

Sales wise, She's The Boss did the best, but as far as radio play goes, Wandering Spirit had 4 different songs get some good radio play during the spring-summer 93, at least around here. When goddess came out, GGME got a little play for about a month. For a brief period, Throwaway got some play from PC. |

I like all of 'em about halfway. |

Yeah it's pretty Stones-like... and Mick seems to have done a bit of stealing from himself-- the Lord Help Me Now thing is pretty identical in Out of Control...
Anyway I think WS is an awesome album-- I have a hard time with a lot of Mick's overly 80s stuff but WS is the bomb-- Out of Focus is one of the catchiest songs on the face of the Earth-- and I'm sure it would get more interest among Stones fans if Mick was generally taken as seriously as Keith is.
