Newly Remastered and Back in Print on Standard Black 180g Vinyl 2LP!
On December 15, 1988, Keith Richards and his incomparable band, The X-Pensive Winos, played the Hollywood Palladium. It was the penultimate show in a 12 city US tour and a night both the band and audience will never forget. Richards leads his absolutely smokin' group through one classic after another including his landmark solo tracks "Take It So Hard," "Make No Mistake, to Stones classics "Happy" and "Connection." "The real stuff," is how Keith describes The X-Pensive Winos. "I wish to thank all the guys in this crazy beautiful band. Something to love. I know I do."
Keith had assembled the core of this band throughout 1987 and '88 during the Talk Is Cheap sessions. For this first ever live solo Keith Richards tour, the stellar line-up was a who's who of the finest musicians on the planet: guitarist Waddy Wachtel (Everly Brothers, Fleetwood Mac, Linda Ronstandt, Stevie Nicks), drummer Steve Jordan (long time Keith collaborator), bassist Charley Drayton, keyboard player Ivan Neville (Rolling Stones collaborator), singer Sarah Dash, and on saxophone, the inimitable, late great, long time Stones sideman Bobby Keys.
