THE RETURN OF THE '70s
BEST OF ’87/’88: Primitive Cool, Jagger’s second solo LP and the one that’s destined to rid him of that pesky “leader of the Rolling Stones” title for good. PROFILE: Mick spent over 20 years as the flamboyant frontman for England’s Rolling Stones before deciding to venture into unfeharted solo waters with his She’s The Boss album in 1985. That record bulleted into the Top 10, proving that alone, Mick would gather no moss. FIRST ACCOMPLISHMENT: Rebelling against pop music standards with the Stones in the 1960s by nurturing their “bad boys of rock ’n’ roll” image—a direct and intentional contrast to the squeaky-clean Beatles.
MAIN SQUEEZE: Statuesque model Jerry Hall has been Mick’s better half for many years.
PET PROJECT: Mick recently finished producing the first album for Living Color, a hard rock band from Brooklyn. QUOTE: “It is more difficult as you go on, but it isn’t any more difficult than it was last year. I don’t find that I run out of ideas.”
