Why Keith only one song and a short song, wasn't the contract always two Keith songs, sometimes three songs, disappointed.
The contract?

The contract?
Very simple: When most people hear Jagger's voice they think it's the Rolling Stones.
When people hear Keith's voice they think it is him doing a solo project.
That's just how it works by most people subconsciously. We are all brainwashed by the Rolling Stones in a way.

Little they know, those brainwashed most people. Namely, there is a new subclass among the hardcore fanbase these days. When they hear a Rolling Stones, they hear a Jagger solo project. When they hear Keith singing or The Winos, they hear The Rolling Stones.

It is horrible to listen all those albums prior DIRTY WORK. In some of them - all the way to BEGGARS BANQUET - Keith doesn't sing any song at all (okay, a few verses in "Salt of the Earth"). EXILE especially is a terrible case: so many songs, but only one, pretty short Keith tune. So disappointed.

I meant since 81" Keith was contracted to sing two songs live while Mick leaves the stage, also since then Keith has played 2 songs on each album so assumed that was also in the contract.

As far as I know there is no such contract.

Which book was that?
Keith agreeing to/signing off the setlist of a show is a different thing from an actual contract stipulating that Keith "gets to sign two songs if he wants to". Who would the contracting parties be in this case, I wonder?
And what does "two songs if he wants to" even mean? Keith's got an option of signing 0 to 2?
I would maybe just call Keith's solo spot standard practice. And it's got nothing to do with how many songs he signs lead on when they put out an album.

Maybe you're mixing up Mick and Keith's agreement for concerts with that of albums, Riffie?
At least one song is better than none, like on B&L

It's in a video somewhere, you actually see Keith sign the setlist.

what happened to Keith´s voice ? after quitting smoking it should be strong but here it sounds rather thin, and it is mixed too far in the background

By the way, keefriffhards, I did a search and found a post about the setlist sign-off process, not sure if correct:

There is a Tell Me Straight version w/ Mick on vocals, as Keith confirmed on Howard Stern ... maybe one day we'll get to hear it, a la You Got The Silver.

"Tell Me Straight" somehow started to remind me of "All About You".
