I disagree. Mick Jagger has made 4 solo albums (STB, PC, WS and GITD). Keith has made two (TIC and MO - Don't know if the Wingless Angels project counts, and I have yet to hear it unfortunately). The way I see it is this: Mick's first two solo albums are crap. I mean like worse than Dirty Work (Which IMO is The Stones' worst effort). Wandering Spirit is the best of all solo Stones records, but it's also Mick's ONLY good solo effort, as GITD is very bad too IMO (Almost the entire WS is good, but I can't think of a single song that I like from Mick's other records). Keith has made two good ones. Neither of these are as good as WS, but they are way more consistent and they have the pure trademark of Keith. Mick's is more bland in that way, and it works on WS, but nothing more. Overall I'm a Keith man when it comes to solo stuff. I just put Wandering Spirit on way more often, and that happens when I'm off the Stones for a while (And that's not often).
Never heard Charlie's stuff except for a song he played on Letterman or Leno in the nineties with Bernard Fowler on vocals. Ronnie should have a mention too, because he makes some great stuff. Mick Taylor has some nice stuff, but it's not really my style. Bill....... "Si Si (Je Suis Un Rock Star)". Need I say more?
