According to a mate of mine who works for Eagle Rock, he has heard that rather than a 2cd album there will be two albums. The blues album will be out later this year, whereas the album of new material will be out spring next year.
Yesterday I saw my friend, the one that works on Universal, and he told me the same thing: the main idea now is to release the blues album on October to back on the US tour and wait until May/June of 2017 to release the new album, just in time for the European Tour. Two tours, two albums.
The Havana show will be released on November too.

You were right Rollin and GL.

I don't understand. Should he've said 'You was right Rollin and GL'?

In the booklet of Blue & Lonesome you can see some picks that show the titles of possible new tracks.
Drive me too hard
Get out of my way
After that they switched to Blue & Lonesome.
Did anyone hear if they were back in the studio in the USA in late Oct or early Nov.? Think Mick mentioned it in one interview in Boston.

Wishful thinking, the last time they really sat down together was 93 in Barbados for VL and we still got "solo" songs played by the band on the record and two "memorable" songs, both Keith's, LIS and YGMR.

Of course we won't get another Some Girls album next year but I think they did the right move to just release the blues tracks.
Instead of continuing work on the originals they could have released a new album with some covers, some new tracks they already completed and some outtakes like from Paris 2002 or Los Angeles 1997. But they did not and so I think we might get some good stuff next year.

"The Stones are discussing more shows next year, and they really do intend to work on that album of originals. "There's about 10 or 12 new songs that Mick actually has been cooking up," says Wood, "and Keith's got the odd one, too." Richards suggests that at least some of the songs might be unfinished compositions that date back 15 years or more.

first off -this "blues record " is a figment of your imaginations.there was never any "blues cover record" or blues flavored album and there never will be so forget it.
the band do blues covers when they're working all the time.there are bootlegs of songs from almost every record that are straight blues,maybe one makes it to the record.
here's a qoute from the "ask keith" section of his website.
FAN:keith would you ever do a cover record of old blues songs?
KEITH: NO,because i love the blues but it's only a small part of what i do.
this producer or whatever is probably only working on one song,the commercial single.the days of the stones putting out another great blues based album are over.they don't have the chops at playing or writing,we've had 35 years to figure that out,it should've sunk in by now.
These blues songs were not recorded as warm up songs. Not that they will keep all of them but these are songs recorded for an album. And most of them are blues covers. 11 if I remember correctly.

Only thing that seems to be certain is your disdain for Mick as evidenced by the near constant jabs and presumptive/false statements stated as fact.
Why?

Evidently Keith tried to get them all in a studio while in New York last month, but unfortunately it didn't happen for one reason or another. Getting them all in a studio any time soon seems doubtful, and the further time marches on the more it seems unlikely. Maybe they'll do something leading up to the rehearsals for the upcoming European tour in a few months, but as it stands they're sitting on Micks demos which led them nowhere as far as original tunes are concerned.
Mick doesn't want another Blues covers album - he wants to work on his demos, while Keith wants to collaborate like the old days.
The future is uncertain.

Isn't that weird? Mick said he wanted to do a new Stones album but... now it looks like it's gonna be another Jagger solo album with a Rolling Stones name like they've been since 1989.
Well, for the most part anyway.

Mick: I don't know. It would be very nice and I've got a lot of new songs and songs I've written over the last couple of years. I've done really good demos for all of them, which I would love to record. So, let's hope so... I haven't (thought about making a solo album). I'd love to record a Stones album. If that doesn't happen, then yes. That's a truthful answer. I've got songs that would be great for the Stones, and I've got songs that wouldn't be perfect for the Stones...
I've been writing this week. I've written a lot of new songs lately, but we haven't recorded them yet. (They're about)just life in general, different subjects, personal things, social things.

Yes I remember reading that...and then they 'hit the wall'.
On the bright side, they recorded and leased Blue and Lonesome, but what happens next is anybody's guess. Ronnie recently said they might have to start from scratch insinuating Micks demos were leading nowhere.
Hopefully Mick will take his demos and work with Dave Stewart and/or that other guy Carl Falk...there's no room in the Stones catalogue for "songs that wouldn't be perfect for the Stones..." which seems to be the case with all of his demos.

Oh how awful. What the world does not need is another horribly produced horrible sounding Jagger solo album.
Nor does the world need more bad Jagger solo Stones songs.
Why can't they just work together? It's too bad Mick didn't mellow out of the control freak that he is.
