Mick Jagger was 42 when his solo debut came out. He was mack in the middle of his version of domesticity with Jerry Hall, on the heels of The Stone’s tepid “Undercover” and in a period of strain with Keith. Mick has stated that, with “She’s the Boss,” he wanted to establish himself as an artist outside of The Stones. Keith compared Mick to another legendary artist when he said of “She’s The Boss”: “It’s like Mein Kampf. Everyone owns a copy but nobody has listened to it.”

In the summer of 1984, Rod Stewart released “Camouflage,” a lightweight, occasionally fun, occasionally terrible and mostly disposable pop album. 1984 was also the year that Miami Vice debuted on TV. Looking back, it seems impossible that these two events were unrelated “Camouflage” sounds like a chipper soundtrack to “Miami Vice,” complete with lite intrigue, the pastel sex appeal, the white suit, the synths, the mechanical beats.
