Released in 1983, Undercover found the Rolling Stones coming off one of the biggest releases of its career, Tattoo You, and struggling for a musical direction. Vocalist Mick Jagger wanted to experiment with contemporary styles while guitarist Keith Richards wanted to bring the band back to its blues-based roots. The result is an album that is often of two minds and one that drove a decade-long feud between Jagger and Richards. We’ll hear music from Undercover as well as selections from Friendship Commanders, Maria Elena Silva, and Haymakers.
