I don't know. I think he deserves the benefit of the doubt. I mean, how many 22-year-old women who "really loved" Xeyed Heart can there even be? I, for one, am impressed!

These @#$%& double standars in this site. These bloody "Keith Richards is the second coming of Christ" people. When I said something controversial in that Keith Richards solo album thread, that was a reason to screaem and shout "oh that horrible Doxa isn't he bad, he is spoiling our party?". Dandelion Powderman was so angry that he not just delated all of his posts in that thread but he also kicked me out of (his) IORR band (that supposed to play next month in Amsterdam). Now I am sure anything as bitching and propaganda-like people like Hairball are saying is perfectly allright by our Dandelinion Powderman. Because it is only about Mick Jagger.
Thank you jeezus richards almighty! I simply hate double standards.
And @#$%& you!

Yeah energitic Dandie Powergame and his selfrightiousness and dopplestandards are 90% of the time no gain for this site, and Hairball neither. It's sad but understandable that you take yet another pause. Your posts will be missed.
What did I do now...
you're just being you...you can't help it.

I can't help being self-righteous, with double standards... Yes, I'm sure that's why Doxa left.
Nice to see a serious and heartfelt post from you again. Thanks.

Unfortunately Mick thinks that sometimes. To quote my late manager, a good friend of his, "Mick is embarrassed that he became famous as a rock 'n' roll star." If true, that's sad, because there are very few of them up there with Mick Jagger.
As for millennials, the Stones have the same issue as other superstars with a deep catalogue. If their classic material is new to someone, it's expecting a lot for them to push through it all enough to be interested in the new stuff. The high concept blues album was one way around that trap.

Mick Jagger Released 2 New Songs 10 Days Ago and They’ve Sold Two Thousand Copies Apiece
Roger Friedman - August 7, 2017
It pains me to write this because I’m a fan of a lot of Mick Jagger’s solo work. But the famed Rolling Stone has treated his career like a hobby, and it’s rarely been attended with much follow up.
So that’s the story of the two singles he dropped and no one picked up on July 27th. Mick spontaneously released “Gotta Get a Grip” and “England Lost” with no warning and no promotion. And it wasn’t like they were spur of the moment projects. They were accompanied by handsome short films– videos– that took time to prepare.
Nevertheless, 10 days later, Mick needs to “Get a Grip.” Each single has sold 2,000 copies or less. “Grip” is slightly more successful because it’s better. “England Lost” is a sonic mess. Both tracks, though mixed and remixed by top contemporary producers, sound a little like U2 circa “Mysterious Ways.”
Radio has pretty much ignored the tracks, as well. But that happens to every legacy artist. Classic rock stations hypocritically play all the old music by Rock Stars, but refuse to support their new material. It’s really stupid– they’re killing the future of their own business.
As for Mick, I wish he had gone more in the direction of covers a la the Stones’ last and very successful album, “Blue and Lonesome.” Instead of blues he could have revived some soul hits. Or country. Alas, this experiment seems as though it will be marked as a two-off souvenir for the summer of 2017.

Outside of iorr these are the cold facts.
Mick without the Stones is a No No, no really, thank you , but if its all the same, no. Especially if its crap. No one wants it, no one buys it, and they certainly don't want to take the time to play it 7 times until they think they get it. If anyone had any sense they would have listened to these two desperate offerings and gone 'ok, now can we just forget this happened and sweep it under the carpet'. Not magnified this colossal late life crises with a microscope. This male menopausal embarrassment had me believing it would be a big hit when i played it 7 or 8 times. But what i forgot was who out there (non Stones Fan ) is going to listen to it that many times. You see Mick bites the hand that feeds him when he targets a younger audience. He alienates the casual Stones fan. This is why CH sold very well for an old Rocker like keith, even Geargelicks was surprised how well it sold considering album sales on today's market. But its no surprise because Keith delivered what was expected from a wide range of Stones fans and Keith fan's alike.
All this talk that Mick deliberately released these two misfires as part of a master plan is just insane. As if Mick would do a thing like that knowing keith would be laughing himself silly with delight. Which is what he is doing right now i suspect.
I would like to know who put Mick up to this whole idea, Matt where are you

Any reason why Mick couldn't have recorded this with the other Stones?
It was co written with Matt Clifford but does that matter these days.
It's not as though they can't record and release a single, separate from an album. They have done it before.
Would get more promotion and air play. Particularly as they are on tour soon.
I wonder if they will play it live on their European jaunt.

Since BTB at least in studio The Rolling as a real band (composition process) is an illusion.
Marketing fake.
No real collaboration between Mick and Keith.
Each one works on his side and bring his own songs.
And often with other (additional) musicians
