It wasn’t until 1988 that Keith Richards, at the age of 45, finally launched his solo career. Mick Jagger had recently preceded him with the albums She’s the Boss in 1985 and Primitive Cool in 1987, both of which were met with some commercial success, but are now somewhat forgotten from the history of rock’n’roll. With a smaller public reception, Talk is Cheap is evidently more rock oriented than Jagger’s albums. The master of riffs brings his influential know-how to a collection of relaxed tracks. He is supported by Steve Jordan’s solid drum rhythms and Charley Drayton’s bass. Somewhere between classic Stones rock, vintage honky-tonk, and hints of New-Orleans delta blues, Richards displays himself as more a crafter of melodies than a conventional songwriter. This solo debut resembles, above anything, an enormous, joyous jam session between friends. Such friends include: Ivan Neville (piano), Bobby Keys (sax), Waddy Wachtel (guitar), Bootsy Collins (bass), Chuck Leavell (keys), Maceo Parker (saxo), Mick Taylor (guitar), Bernie Worrell (keys) and Willie Mitchell. All in all, without his eternal other half, Keith Richards copes fairly well. Hence his return one year later with the album Steel Wheels … © Max Dembo/Qobuz

Album review

It wasn’t until 1988 that Keith Richards, at the age of 45, finally launched his solo career. Mick Jagger had recently preceded him with the albums She’s the Boss in 1985 and Primitive Cool in 1987, both of which were met with some commercial success, but are now somewhat forgotten from the history of rock’n’roll. With a smaller public reception, Talk is Cheap is evidently more rock oriented than Jagger’s albums. The master of riffs brings his influential know-how to a collection of relaxed tracks. He is supported by Steve Jordan’s solid drum rhythms and Charley Drayton’s bass. Somewhere between classic Stones rock, vintage honky-tonk, and hints of New-Orleans delta blues, Richards displays himself as more a crafter of melodies than a conventional songwriter. This solo debut resembles, above anything, an enormous, joyous jam session between friends. Such friends include: Ivan Neville (piano), Bobby Keys (sax), Waddy Wachtel (guitar), Bootsy Collins (bass), Chuck Leavell (keys), Maceo Parker (saxo), Mick Taylor (guitar), Bernie Worrell (keys) and Willie Mitchell. All in all, without his eternal other half, Keith Richards copes fairly well. Hence his return one year later with the album Steel Wheels … © Max Dembo/Qobuz
