“Crosseyed Heart,” which will feature rock, reggae and
country songs, will be released on Sept. 18, Richards said on
his website. "Trouble," the first single, will be released on
July 17.
Richards, 71, plays electric and acoustic guitars, bass, and
piano and sings vocals on the 15-track album. It includes
collaborations with singer Norah Jones, keyboardist Ian Neville
and guitarist Waddy Wachtel. Richards wrote most of the songs on
the album with drummer and co-producer Steve Jordan.
"There’s nothing like walking into a studio and having
absolutely no idea what you're going to come out with on the
other end," Richards said.
Richards has two previous solo albums - “Talk is Cheap” in 1988
and “Main Offender” in 1992. He is currently on tour with the
Rolling Stones until July 15.
