The Rolling Stones' Ronnie Wood knocks out a loose and rambling affair for his latest solo venture. It starts strong with the Dylan-esque "Why You Wanna Go and Do a Thing Like That For"—co-written by Kris Kristofferson—opening up what seems like Wood's version of a broken-hearted break-up album. But despite a number of ragged-but-right tunes—the reggae of "Sweetness My Weakness" and the slow-burning soul of "I Gotta See," I Feel Like Playing is derailed some by the too-jammed-out rock of "100%" and "Well I Don't Think So." Still, the disc's off-the-cuff feel generally serves it well, and Wood matches his guitar up with some more-than-able foils in Slash, Billy Gibbons and Waddy Wachtel of Keith Richards' X-Pensive Winos.
