Summary

Mick Jagger’s solo album gamble in 1992 took an unexpected turn when producer Rick Rubin brought him to a LA blues club—and he ended up jamming onstage with the Red Devils, channeling raw, youthful energy. In just fourteen hours, they recorded thirteen live blues covers that Rubin thought would be the hit album. But Jagger wanted something more polished, leading to his gold-selling but forgettable Wandering Spirit. Meanwhile, the Red Devils’ own Rubin-produced album got critical acclaim but flopped commercially, and the band disbanded soon after their frontman’s tragic death in 1998. Though Jagger only released one song from that magical session, the full recordings still echo with untapped brilliance. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
