really doubt a spring 2019 release of the new album though, more likely dec 2019.

Great Listen. Interesting that he mentiones Berlin as a true highlight of the current tour for the band. Some people here were moaning of the `"lame" reaction of the audience, but it seems that the Stones feel different.

Chuck also played on "Blue and Lonesome" - his parts were added later.
"I was not there when the basic Blue & Lonesome tracks were cut. As I understand it, the band went into the studio to experiment with some new things and someone, maybe Don Was, suggested doing a blues tune just to break things up and have some fun. They enjoyed it so much that they did another and another, and it went so well that, in three days’ time, they had all the tracks. Then, when we were on the “Olé Olé Olé!” Latin American tour, both Mick and Keith told me they wanted me to be on it. With Don, we arranged for me to overdub my parts in a great new studio in New Orleans, The Parlor. I did most of it on a nice upright piano that they had there, which kept the sounds authentic. That is also the case with all the sounds on the record—really great guitar tones, drum sounds. Growing up in Alabama, I listened to a lot of blues, both on record and live. As we know, blues styles emanated from the South, the Delta. My fingers have a Southern accent."

They might not need him in the studio, but they do need him on tour
