Bill became the first Stone to go solo with the release of his album 'Monkey Grip'. The music on the record is top-notch, heavy on the horns and a nice mix of rock and rhythm and blues. What makes the record memorable in addition to its solid music is that Wyman's sense of humor-- subdued for years due to the strains of working in the Stones--literally exploded into action. Wyman knew full well what he was doing with this record. He was having fun. The music itself is whimsical, creative, and infectiously listenable. Whether talking about being pursued by a spurned lover with a gun, or sticking like monkey grip glue to a cheating lover, the songs are like short Peter Sellers movies. Guns, spurned crazy lovers, lovers that make your legs bend like a willow tree, white lightning that tastes so good, the desire to be the best dresser in town, all these statements are part of the wacky plots of songs that manage to rock and enchant.
