Our Take

In the grand tradition of rock and roll side projects, Bill Wyman's "Monkey Grip" comes across as a joyous romp through the eclectic mind of The Rolling Stones' bass player. The album kicks off with the groovy title track, setting the tone for a funky and infectious ride that pays homage to Wyman's deep love for rhythm and blues.

Wyman's signature bass lines anchor each track, providing a solid foundation for the diverse array of musical styles on display. From the soulful "What's the Point" to the rollicking "White Lightnin'", Wyman proves that he's more than just a background player in the world of rock.

The standout track "Pussy" showcases Wyman's irreverent sense of humour and willingness to push the boundaries of what is considered acceptable in music. With its cheeky lyrics and infectious groove, it's a testament to Wyman's ability to keep things fresh and exciting.

However, not every track hits the mark. "Handbags and Gladrags" feels a bit dated, while "I Wanna Get Me a Gun" veers into slightly uncomfortable territory. But overall, "Monkey Grip" is a solid effort from a musician who doesn't always get the recognition he deserves.

In conclusion, "Monkey Grip" may not be groundbreaking, but it's a fun and funky album that showcases Bill Wyman's talents as a musician and a songwriter. So go ahead, give it a spin and enjoy the ride.
