''Talk Is Cheap'' is the debut album by Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones, released in 1988. Recorded and released during a long-standing fallout with Mick Jagger, ''Talk Is Cheap'' received positive reviews upon its release. Relations between Jagger and Richards had grown tense into the third decade of the Rolling Stones as they began to differ on the musical direction of their famous band; "You Don't Move Me" would be written about their feud. The image-conscious Jagger was keen to follow the trends and keep the Rolling Stones current, while Richards wanted to preserve their reputation and roots. When Jagger was more interested in pursuing his solo career instead of touring for ''Dirty Work'' in 1986, Richards began a solo project for the first time. Richards teamed up with Steve Jordan, who had worked on ''Dirty Work'', and the pair wrote several new songs (one of which, "Almost Hear You Sigh", would be placed on the Rolling Stones' ''Steel Wheels'' in 1989 with lyrical modifications by Jagger). Recording began in August 1987 at Le Studio in Morin Heights, Quebec, and continued sporadically until the following May with visits to Montserrat and Bermuda. In order to assert his independence further, Richards signed with Virgin Records, while the Rolling Stones were under contract to Sony Music (they followed him to Virgin in 1993). The core of the band, called the X-Pensive Winos, consisted of Waddy Wachtel, Ivan Neville, Charley Drayton and Steve Jordan, with many guest artists taking part in the recording, including Sarah Dash, Bootsy Collins, Maceo Parker, the Memphis Horns and Patti Scialfa, and the only musician from the Stones to appear, guitarist Mick Taylor. Outtakes later surfaced that included an eight-minute version of "Struggle" and two passes at "Almost Hear You Sigh," as well as two unreleased jams, the 14-minute "She Put the Mark On Me" and the 12-minute "Breakin'." Released in October 1988, ''Talk Is Cheap'' was released to a very receptive critical reaction (many reviewers half-jokingly called it the best Rolling Stones album in years) and it peaked at #37 in the UK and #24 in the US, where it went gold. "Make No Mistake" was later featured in an episode of ''The Sopranos'' and on the 2001 soundtrack album'' The Sopranos: Peppers & Eggs: Music from the HBO Original Series''. ==Track listing== All songs by Keith Richards and Steve Jordan. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Talk Is Cheap」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
