There's quite some good tracks on it, from the day that Jagger still could write and sing. There's no need to discuss the production though...

I'm going to see both Sting and Prince in December within about a week of each other.
As this brings back 80s memories, I may haul out She's The Boss and Primitive Cool and give them a nostalgic whirl.
That pretty much says the way I see that album; except the one cut I always dug was "Turn the Girl Loose". I d forgotten about "Lucky in Love" - man I hated that song even back then. I must say that "Lonely at the Top" is terrible IMO. Jagger overdoes the 'Stones-thing' to the nth degree. Like Edward T. says 'heavy handed'.Quote

Production is awful, indeed
But some tracks are quite good; considering they're from the 80s and all. Hard Woman, Secrets and Just Another Night are quite allright; all things considered, at least if you can get past the "80s feel". And Half A Loaf is not too shabby either.
Poorest track on the album for me is "She's The Boss" and "Running Out Of Luck". ....and it's also quite tiresome that "Lucky In Love" goes on forever and ever, with the same kind of Jagger yelling as he does by the end of "She's The Boss".
I'll give the album 2 out of 6 stars.
Completely agree. I understand some people find "Lonely At The Top" to among Jagger's best solo rockers - but I find it impossible to enjoy that one. It's a very tiresome over-the-top vocals.Quote

I think Mick still owes the public an apology for this one.
I don't remember getting one? Anybody?

Cool for the top two but the bottom one, wow, that's really...that's almost tragic there. You have left me numb.
