When we made Beggars Banquet the next year, I felt like: OK, hols are over, old boy, lets get back to business. He seems touchingly proud of Crosseyed Heart, despite his continued insistence that he has no interest in being a solo artist: My whole thing has always been a band, that Ive got this incredible band that have obviously proved through the years they can hop generations, and, you know, I kind of think thats enough for one man to ask for and I only do solo stuff when theres nothing on the horizon, basically, to keep my hand in. Nevertheless, Crosseyed Heart is warm and relaxed and possessed of a ramshackle charm noticeably absent from the last Stones album, 2005s A Bigger Bang: it offers covers of Leadbelly and Gregory Isaacs, and his own Nothing On Me, on which Richards defiantly ruminates about the 1977 Toronto drug bust, for which he narrowly escaped a prison sentence
It also considers banning their use in other public spaces where smoking is not allowed, although it does not go into detail
The band was forced to cancel yet another tour
