I must disagree a bit there..Wood's "Now Look" is quite good.Now it is an extreme departure from the first LP(imo) because of the Womack influence which gave it a bit more of a "soul" sound and does date it. Taylor's "Stones Throw" has some great songs included the powerful "Blind WIlliw Mctell" worth the price of the cd by itself. For the best I agree that it could be a toss up between Keith's "Talk" and Mick's "Spirit" with Ron's "Gimme Some Neck" a close third...

What about "I can the Fire" by RW

or

It's Strugle by keith?

Two great songs!

I really like Main Offender and Slide On This...

Talk Is Cheap was great but had too much Dolby.

I wasn't aware of this. What songs did Thomas Dolby play on?

So he wasn't invited into the recordings, and covered the mike's with his hands or something? What...A...BASTARD!

I hope Keith showed him the blade.

Jagger/ wandering spirit and the unreleased album with the red devils

I agree with this, and it's not really close. I am not sure what the "unreleased album" consists of. I have those blues workouts in the studio with the Red Devils. Were they intended to make up an album - it would have sold zero copies and been the best solo Stones album.

BEST

1. Wandering Spirit - his only true 'genuine' sounding album besting all post-Undercover works by The Stones.
2. I've Got My Own Album To Do - an amazing and PAINFULLY underrated album,
3. Talk is Cheap - this is Keith's triumph, finding grooves and spark which he's not delivered since.

If Jagger ever released the Red Devil Sessions it would SMOKE #2 and #3.

WORST

1. Main Offender - Eileen and Wicked As It Seems are the only saving grace from this Telecaster snoozefest. Full of half-songs, two identical 'songs' are even placed together. Keith's creative juice is clearly drained here.
2. Primitive Cool - pretty awful. Only Dirty Work and A Bigger Bang are worse.
3. 1234 - like counting... sheep.

Best solo albums are:

1. Own Album - but Woody wasn't a Stone when he made it.
2. Now Look
3. Watts / Keltner
4. Talk Is Cheap
5. Main Offender
6. Wandering Spirit
7. Goddess In The Doorway (It ain't that bad !)

In terms best solo songs, I'd say Keith's Hate it When you Leave and Make No Mistake.

Without even thinking... WANDERING SPIRIT!

Talk Is Cheap - easily the best most rounded album from any of 'em.

Even though I voted Wandering Spirit, I do have a soft spot for Slide On This. That would be my #2.

Re: Best solo record by a Stone

The best album is "I've Got My Own Album To Do" by a mile!

It's versatile, well-produced, the songs are really, really good, awesome playing - and what a line up thumbs up

The worst is a tie between Primitive Cool and Mick Taylor, imo.

However, even the worst solo Stones-album have some hidden gems (Party Doll, Leather Jacket)

Yes, this is the saving grace of probably all Stones related solo stuff. Agree that "I've Got My Own Album too do" is wonderful, but glad to see personal favorites, Gimme Some Neck and Talk is Cheap get numerous mentions here.
