About The Record:

Following the release of the Rolling Stones album Dirty Work in 1986, relations between Jagger and Keith Richards soured after Jagger decided to not tour to promote the album in favor of starting his second solo project. Richards was vocal about his discontent in the media—which Jagger replied to, also publicly; Kow Tow and Shoot Off Your Mouth were reportedly written in response to disparaging remarks made about Jagger by Keith Richards. Undeterred, Jagger promptly began work on Primitive Cool, recording in the Netherlands and Barbados. Joining up with David A. Stewart and Keith Diamond in the producer's chair, Jagger used Jeff Beck as the regular guitarist for the sessions, seeking to have more uniformity in the recordings. The album reached No. 26 in the UK and No. 41 in the United States with Let's Work (the lead single) and follow-ups singles Throwaway and Say You Will were minor hits. As a result, although Jagger toured Primitive Cool, it was only in Japan and Australia, not feeling confident enough to attempt American or British shows.
