Keith Richards joined Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1 to celebrate the 30th anniversary and re-release of his second solo album, Main Offender.
He tells Apple Music about deciding to make another solo record after Talk Is Cheap, the necessity of the hiatus from The Rolling Stones and how it made the band stronger, what he learned from being a frontman and how it benefitted The Stones, why he didn’t make another solo record for 23 years, the upcoming 50th anniversary of Exile On Main Street and more.
On the upcoming 50th anniversary of The Rolling Stones' classic album, Exile On Main St., Keith says: "Well, Exile is, it is one of my favorite babies, man and it was an incredible record to make in this damn basement. And I sometimes wondered if we'd never get out of there, but one of my favorite. That house in the south of France where we recorded was bizarre to the max, and I have great memories of it. It was Riviera beach time. Everybody's going crazy. And yeah, that was a hell of a record. We liked it so much it became a double."
