I wish Sweet thing was saved for VL. Live, it is absolutely smokin'. Imagine how good it would have been with rest of the Stones playing on it when they took it out on the road.

Pondering which Mick/Keith/Ronnie solo album songs may have suited the band, [and could have made killer Stones numbers] might make for quite an interesting thread .

I forgot how good that was. It's interesting he did nothing but new solo material, ignored his first 2 albums. That says something.
WANDERING SPIRIT is easily his best solo album.

For me, all of Keith's albums are better than any of Mick's. "Wandering Spirit" initially felt like a very good album, but as time has passed, it now seems thin. The soul is lacking with Jimmy Ripp, et al., whereas Keith's overall sound on his albums has proven more sustaining for me.

Not really, it was a one-off show, specifically as a promo for just this album, he wasn't touring.

Primitive Cool is the only one of Mick's solo albums I found unlistenable, but I haven't heard it in years and I plan to give it another spin soon. I'll try to keep an open mind. I'd love to love it.
I liked Superheavy, but I'm sure that opinion isn't popular. I seem to remember nothing but scorching scorn for that project, but I didn't feel that way. I truly enjoyed many of the tracks and appreciated the musical adventurism, even if it didn't always work.
I didn't hate Goddess In The Doorway, but it's a big step down from Wandering Spirit and doesn't hang together the way Wandering Spirit does. I can play WS straight through and enjoy it thoroughly, while with GITD I always had to make a shorter mix tape version to make it enjoyable. And it sort of sucks that the very best song "Blue" was only released as a b side. What's up with that?

So, everyone loves this album? Now? Seems like people's opinions changes with the wind. I remember when I posted this Webster Hall gig
first and everyone complained how awful it was and how pathetic the band was...
