Best known as co-founder and guitarist for the groundbreaking rock and roll band, The Rolling Stones, Keith Richards has also enjoyed musical success on his own. His first foray as a solo artist came in 1988, with the critically-acclaimed Talk is Cheap. A cross-country U.S. tour accompanied the album, with a stop on December 15 at the famed Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles. No stranger to the venue, Richards joked to the crowd about previously being thrown off that very stage, referring to a 1972 incident in which he tried to perform with his idol, Chuck Berry. Backing Richards on this tour were a group of musicians and friends, dubbed The X-Pensive Winos. Members included Waddy Wachtel, Ivan Neville, Bobby Keys, Sarah Dash, Charley Drayton, and Steve Jordan.
The live album, which featured several Rolling Stones songs was originally released in December, 1991 at the same time the Stones were staging their Steel Wheels/Urban Jungle comeback tour. This reissue offers an all-inclusive look back and a chance to relive the night through the music, photos, concert footage, and promotional items.
Like all music fans, AMI is eager for the return of live music, from stadiums to dive bars. AMI is proud to offer a chance at winning this exclusive box set, full of live music, memories, and memorabilia. For a limited time, AMI jukeboxes will also be featuring a Keith Richards playlist that highlights his biggest hits with and without The Rolling Stones. All are encouraged to check out the playlist and enter the contest using the AMI Music app or by visiting a nearby AMI jukebox venue.
