What happened to Keith's solo record?? ...from Ian
Feb 6^th, 2012 at 9:29pm

Keith supposedly had a slew of songs and was working in the studio about four or five months or so back back with producer / musician Steve Jordan on these items. Charlie mentioned that Keith is doing a record (or records ) very recently in an interview. Keith said he was going to let Jagger hear the songs to see if he was interested in contributing to them for Stones songs and if he wasn't he was going to keep them and continue working on them himself.

What became of this? It would be very bad, and cumbersome timing for him to try and release it as anything solo this spring or summer with all the supposed Stones doings (whatever they may entail). Did he shelf this material or what became of all this? Anyone have a clue?

Keith's never made a record thats been released that quick after he started recording it. He's notoriously slow.

About a year is the norm, going by the two Winos records.

I had my doubts at the time as to whether he was making a full length album, and still do.

Maybe he was just working on some songs that the Stones might do at some point. I wouldn't hold my breath, though.

Saying that, Pierre de Beauport has made a few cryptic comments on facebook about working in the studio in the last couple of months, so who knows.

I've noticed Pierre is big on making cryptic statements. Not sure they all have to do with the Stones. Like today's:

Wouldnt it make more sense to be the other way round?

He WAS seen in a studio last summer. I've seen at least one photo.

An article appeared by two rap idiots who actually smoked up with Keith. I refused to post it because it was a lame interview. I think Keith can do what he wants when he wants. Right now he's just not that into music and performing.

Andrew has a great life... his show on Sirius ch. 21 is fantastic... so glad he didn't die from all the drugs, he's a true legend... Keith ain't doing squat!!!

Oh I dont get Sirius so I didnt know. But I thought Olhham got some incurable disease, that was years ago so apparently he is ok now! Glad to know this, I wondered about him, and what he is up to these days. Does he have a website or facebook or whatever? I'll send him an email, maybe he needs a personal assistant! Grin

Who knows... It's silly and despicable that The Stones have not recorded new material ... it's been since 2005 (seven friggin years) since they produced anything new from scratch. They had plenty of time to do an album. Even The Beach Boys are managing to get one out.

Kina ridiculous and seriously disappointing they are not working on things in the studio.. after all... they are not that busy doing other things now are they... ?? ..and they just sort of been hangin around and doing nothing when they could of been making an album, I am still fairly confident that they will release some new stuff this year but I am not sure to what extent -
