Steve Jordan gives radio.com's Brian Ives some details about the Keith project:
The Stones played two new songs during this tour, and one of them, “One More Shot,” was written by Richards for a potential solo album, according to the band’s Rolling Stone cover story earlier this year.
“We’re working on it now, it’s really pretty amazing,” Jordan says, before adjusting that statement. “It’s weird to say something you’re working on is amazing. I think he’s amazing on it, is really what I mean to say. That’s basically it.”
Jordan says that it isn’t an X-Pensive Winos album; rather it’s mainly the Richards/Jordan team.
And he verifies that there’s a Keith solo version of “One More Shot.”
“We cut it, and it’s great,” Jordan says. “Again, that sounds weird. What I mean to say is we really had a great time doing it. Keith was looking for a new song to bring in [to the Stones], so he asked me if I minded if he brought it in, and I said, ‘No.’ So he brought it in and they liked it, and they ended up recording it. We gave them our version to listen to. We have a version, it’s done. It has a different flavor, an additional vocal, Meegan [Voss, Jordan's wife] singing this counterpoint thing. It’s a little different, Keith is playing all of the guitars and the bass. That’s all I can say, I can’t say much more.”
The song served as something of an anthem for the Stones on what may well have been their last tour, but it may also double for Richards’ other band, should he decide to hit the road once again with the X-Pensive Winos.

His second one was so awful I don't want a third.
An album full of that? Kill me.

Be specific Oz, what's so awful about it? Overall, I think Talk is Cheap is a better album, but there are some great songs on Main Offender. As Wicked as it seems and Hate it when you leave are as good as anything Keith has written with the Stones.

His songwriting chops left him a long time ago I think.
