"Half an album done" says Jagger. Suggestions to finish it:
Posted by: rbk ()
Date: November 14, 2016 16:50

Mick and Ronnie have both mentioned in the press that, before they diverted to the blues project, they had 6-7 songs for a new album. Then they hit the wall creatively. Who says a new Stones album needs to be all originals? As long as they're coming full circle with the blues why not flesh out a new album with tasty, applicable covers? Here's some ideas I had. Not ALL of them but 6-7:

Bleeding Fingers by Lucinda Williams
You Never Can Tell by Chuck Berry (Keith vocal)
Jeanie, Jeanie, Jeanie by Eddie Cochran
The Road to My Heart by Merle Haggard
74 Years Young by Buddy Guy
Midnight In Her Eyes by The Black Keys
There's A Party Goin' On by Wanda Jackson
Lucky Man by Ronnie Wood
Soul Station by Joanne Shaw Taylor
When It Comes to You by Buddy Miller
My Baby Told Me by Howlin' Wolf
Gonna Find Me Somebody To Love by Little Milton
Big City by The Pretty Things

Nothing was said about how many songs they had done and hit a wall meaning they stopped working on new songs. They hit a wall while recording, did the blues, and from what hasn't been said, it seems they continued on recording new songs.

Suggestions to finish it:

Pull out the good leftovers from the VOODOO and BABYLON sessions, whatever might have some merit from the LICKS sessions, and finish those.

Actually, they said 6-7 songs. And I've only heard the hit a wall-thing from Don Was.

+ Keith's comments the album «was in the can». That was not taken as being in the trash can, course winking smiley

Maybe Keith thought they would use some of the blues stuff on the album with the original material when he said that? I dunno...

You Never Can Tell would be AWESOME with both Keith and Mick on vocals. Maybe trading off verses and then duetting at the end. One of my favorite Berry tracks, immortalized in Pulp Fiction.

I totally agree.
Enough of covers...they have to work with the best outtakes from previous sessions.

I took it to mean they continued working on new songs but according to this, ha ha, after finally understanding what was said after reading this stuff for the millionth time, that's not the case:

Mick Jagger said they haven't thrown out the original material they were working on prior to abandoning it in favor of their forthcoming blues collection "Blue & Lonesome." Jagger says they have "half an album" of new music done.

You had me at Real Live Bleeding Fingers (huge Lu fan and fave song)
Another good Lucinda cover might be Changed the Locks..

I think they made a mistake in not releasing You Got It Made. Keith could've had 3 on VOODOO and they could've left off, oh, Sweethearts Together or New Faces...

i'm just glad they now think 6 songs is half an album-they seem to have learned the lesson that everything they do isn't great and alot of the time it isn't even very good.

it looks like they are taking their time and getting it right instead of putting out 16 or 18 half baked songs, that's really good to see.

Yes, it would be great to see quality triumphing over quantity for a change.

maybe they could do a new album of 10 songs instead of 13,14 or 16 from some post 1980,s albums.

would be great to get a new stones album as well as the new cover album due out in december.

looks like if this info is true we get the stones rolling for a bit longer.

I agree, no covers! We are just about getting reading to get an album of 12 covers. Lets see them get to the roots and crank out some good blues based R and R! And maybe some soul too! With minimal production, ragged guitars, and lyrics about more than just scoring from some woman.

I'd like to know your opinion about Ronnie's comment:
“It’s like putting it on top of the strainer and seeing what soaks through by the time you come back to them again. The lumps that are left on top after time has gone by, that’s what you make your dough out of. It wouldn’t surprise me if we recut them all again. It’s one of those things.”

It seems like 'We are not entirely satisfied with these new songs...'.

Does not sound too good at all. But maybe, they want to put an extra effort, to make a GREAT last album.

Eh, I'll believe it when I see it. I'm personally fine without another new album (I liked A Bigger Bang and think it'll be fine to go out with/hard to do better than), so the last thing I'm gonna do is get my hopes up that it is happening only for it to get bogged down and never put out. If we get a new Stones album I'll consider it a happy surprise, because I truly thought at this point 2006 was the last time.

A new album (or even en EP or 2 singles) would be great news.

A new tour is more questionnable.
If they ALL are fit enough, willing to go out on the road once more and able to meet their standards as they did for decades up to 2014 (last time I saw them), I'll be happy.
If not, they'd better leave their image (almost) undammaged and stop touring.

The vaults are full, they can release tons of great stuff !

Just camp out in the studio for two months.
But I don't think that at this point in their lives they really want to do that. Whatever they do is fine.

The video that was posted recently, which showed Mick and Keith sitting together and performing "Country Honk", gives me some hope that the two of them would be able and willing to work in each others' company in the studio on transforming song sketches into valuable song material. Then I hope that some more new songs may come out of such activity.
