Mick Jagger Reveals the 1986 Album He Hated Recording Most in His Entire Career

Over the decades leading the Rolling Stones, Mick Jagger participated in some of the most important albums in the history of rock. However, not all projects were pleasant experiences for the singer. The album that Jagger most hated producing was "Dirty Work", released in 1986. The album was born during one of the most turbulent periods in the history of the Rolling Stones, marked by internal conflicts, creative differences and an increasingly frayed relationship between Mick Jagger and Keith Richards. At the time, Jagger was extremely focused on his solo career, while Richards believed the singer was moving away from the band. The tension between the two was directly reflected in the recordings. The result was a difficult production process, full of friction and little collaboration between the group's main composers. Many fans and critics noticed the album's lack of artistic unity. Although Dirty Work produced some songs remembered by the band's admirers, Jagger himself never hid his dissatisfaction with the work. For him, the album represents one of the most complicated moments of his professional career. Interestingly, despite the problems, the Rolling Stones survived the crisis and continued releasing albums, performing gigantic tours and consolidating their status as one of the greatest bands of all time.
