Keith Richards - Main Offender - Music & Performance - Vinyl

Back in print for the first time in decades, Main Offender is the classic second solo album by Keith Richards, originally released in 1992 in between the Rolling Stones' Steel Wheels and Voodoo Lounge records. Richards teamed up with Talk Is Cheap collaborator Steve Jordan and added Waddy Wachtel to the fold both in composing and producing Main Offender. Sessions with Richards' group of musician friends, which in addition to Jordan and Wachtel included Ivan Neville, known as The X-Pensive Winos took place in California and New York City from March to September 1992, with touring in Europe's autumn and early 1993 in North America. Featuring the hits "Wicked As It Seems" (No. 3 US Mainstream Rock) and "Eileen" (No. 17 US Mainstream Rock), Mick Jagger was complimentary of the release using "Wicked as It Seems" as inspiration for the Stones' next single, "Love Is Strong."
