Cool. Interesting to choose a Main Offender track as well.
Now, c'mon Keith, how about a full album? We're getting old waiting on it.

Wow! I really love him doing stuff like this. Cool!
What's the story of this? Anyone knows?

Wonderful stuff. Is this recent? How do they record this? Do they start with a basic-track and then each fills certain gaps? In any case, very well done.
And as for Keith, like with the Wingless Angels, he does this sort of thing splendidly.

"Playing For Change was born in 2002 as a shared vision between co-founders, Mark Johnson and Whitney Kroenke, to hit the streets of America with a mobile recording studio and cameras in search of inspiration and the heartbeat of the people. Producers Mark Johnson and Enzo Buono, traveled around the world to places including New Orleans, Barcelona, South Africa, India, Nepal, the Middle East and Ireland. Using mobile recording equipment, the duo recorded local musicians performing the same song, interpreted in their own style. This musical journey resulted in the award-winning documentary, "A Cinematic Discovery of Street Musicians."
In 2005, Mark Johnson was walking in Santa Monica, California, when he heard the voice of Roger Ridley (now deceased) singing “Stand By Me.” Roger had so much soul and conviction in his voice, and Mark approached him about performing “Stand By Me” as a Song Around The World. Roger agreed, and when Mark returned with recording equipment and cameras he asked Roger, “With a voice like yours, why are you singing on the streets?” Roger replied, “Man I’m in the Joy business, I come out to be with the people.” [The "Stand By Me" recording was an internet phenomenon that went viral.] Ever since that day, the Playing For Change crew has traveled the world recording and filming musicians, creating Songs Around The World, and building a global family."

Yeah, but still, I wonder how they get it so as if each one of them hears exactly what the rest does, which is impossible. I mean, the sound of all those combined instruments sounds great, almost as if they could hear each other, which means they either have some amazingly good producers or use some kind of iterative procedure.

I noticed on this, as well as the Hyde Park DVD, that Keith's voice has gotten stronger and more intelligible, as his guitar playing has faded. This is better than anything the Stones have recorded in a long time. Some real bottom bass instead of Stanley Clark nonsense.
Reggae really brings out the soul in Keith. This was nice to hear.
