The worst Rolling Stones solo album title

Message Bookmarked
Bookmark Removed

Together, they may be the greatest rock and roll band ever. Separately, they have amassed an impressive list of terrible album titles...but which one is the worst?

(Note: as far as I know, this list is more or less complete, other than a few obviously-titled live albums that probably didn't stand a chance.)

Between Goddess in the Doorway and Digital Dreams for me....good poll idea!

Iago Galdston, Friday, 13 July 2012 01:10 (thirteen years ago)

The dark horse in this race is Bill Wyman selftitled imo

Keith Richards – Vintage Vinos

it's not 'vintage winos'?

arby's, Friday, 13 July 2012 01:21 (thirteen years ago)

I Feel Like Playing strikes me as the one that isn't even trying. Main Offender is a nice cast-down gauntlet.

There's a very good reason they've never parted ways permanently.

'stuff' is kinda lol i give it a pass

arby's, Friday, 13 July 2012 01:23 (thirteen years ago)

Stuff struck me as, "shit, I already have a self-titled album. Fuck it." which is just ugh.

EZ Snappin, Friday, 13 July 2012 01:29 (thirteen years ago)

Goddess in the Doorway strikes me as just so inept, so cliche, but Digital Dreams, wow...goin with that one

Iago Galdston, Friday, 13 July 2012 01:36 (thirteen years ago)

it's not 'vintage winos'?

Nope, it really is Vintage Vinos, because Vintage Winos just wasn't terrible enough!

cwkiii, Friday, 13 July 2012 01:53 (thirteen years ago)

gimme some neck sounds really gross

Iago Galdston, Friday, 13 July 2012 01:55 (thirteen years ago)

very weird disappointment that digital dreams is not on spotify.

balls, Friday, 13 July 2012 01:56 (thirteen years ago)

um dudes...i just randomly dived into a bill wyman album called "Stuff"...and there's a song called "Mama Rap"....um...woah.

wack nerd zinging in the dead of night (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 13 July 2012 02:00 (thirteen years ago)

aslo "If I Was A Doo Doo Doo"

man he really got into synths and shit in the 80s, this makes She's the Boss sound like Exile

"If I was a Doo Doo Doo Doo/all the choo choo trains in Timbuktu/couldn't lead my tracks away from you"

wack nerd zinging in the dead of night (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 13 July 2012 02:01 (thirteen years ago)

classic thread. Ron Wood is MVP imo.

straight up now tell me will I be a fucking lump forever? (some dude), Friday, 13 July 2012 02:01 (thirteen years ago)

man did you ever wish you could hear wyman wheezing his way through "you can leave your hat on" over some cheezy synclavier type shit?

wack nerd zinging in the dead of night (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 13 July 2012 02:02 (thirteen years ago)

Oh shit Digital Dreams is the soundtrack to a movie in which "'Rolling Stone', Bill Wyman crosses the fine line between dreams and reality, when his passion for documenting his life on computer, is seen as an obsession by those around him." (sic)

Starring Bill Wyman and James Coburn what the hell?

those ron wood titles are all hilarious, but i gotta go with g in the dway

Black_vegeta (Hungry4Ass), Friday, 13 July 2012 05:59 (thirteen years ago)

Went with Goddess in the Doorway because the music was just as crap as the title.

Austin, Friday, 13 July 2012 06:02 (thirteen years ago)

i love how Ron Wood made his best effort at guitar/sex wordplay with Gimme Some Neck, but proceeded to keep trying and got progressively further and further off the trail with Slide On This and Not For Beginners and I Feel Like Playing

also one of his live albums is Slide on Live: Plugged in and Standing

some dude, Friday, 13 July 2012 06:11 (thirteen years ago)

Mick Taylor's get progressively more "I was in the Rolling Stones everybody!!!"

Mark G, Friday, 13 July 2012 06:13 (thirteen years ago)

one of the few threads i love even more than this one: Horrible 70s album titles like I've Got My Own Album To Do

seriously, i wish i could find the rest of that

"why don't we make it a dream thing"

da croupier, Friday, 13 July 2012 15:58 (thirteen years ago)

Bill Wyman, already confirmed as the eternal archivist, purchased a computer that made him one of the first people in the UK to own an Apple home computer.

"It had just about enough memory to put half your address book on it," Bill Wyman jokes, "but at the time it was quite magical and I started to enter my diaries and the whole history of the Rolling Stones."

Is the implication here that Bill Wyman has an enormous address book or is the key word "started"?

I see "Digital Daydreams" and think it should be on Neil Young's Trans

This is so funny. I forget the little things sometimes, like Rolling Stones solo albums.

Is it to much to ask that digital daydreams be on netflix instant?

wack nerd zinging in the dead of night (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Saturday, 14 July 2012 19:28 (thirteen years ago)

i'd like to see charlie watts' appearance in Digital Daydreams. They probably filmed him w/o his knowledge, like getting out of his car or something.
speaking of watts, i like the title Warm and Tender

tylerw, Saturday, 14 July 2012 19:44 (thirteen years ago)

is it actually a western of some kind? or are they just wearing cowboy hats for fun?

piscesx, Sunday, 15 July 2012 22:26 (thirteen years ago)

christ Let's Work off Primitive Cool is the worst single of the 1980s.

piscesx, Sunday, 15 July 2012 22:29 (thirteen years ago)

I think someone needs to watch Digital Dreams and get back to us...

I picked "she's the boss" partly because I can't dissociate the name from the cover, and something always bothered me about the combination of the two, like the way this generic model with no face is "the boss"

I voted for I've Got My Own Album to Do, but I really didn't expect it to win, especially by so much. Thought Goddess in the Doorway would take it but was secretly rooting for Digital Dreams.
