"...For a long long time...."
Richards has his own answer to the issue. "I'm black as the ace of @#$%& spades, man," he says, deadpan. "Ask any of the brothers." He continues, "I didn't know what color these people were, as a kid. I don't think of blues as being of any particular color at all. Obviously, its history. But there were white slaves, as well. There have been plenty of work songs from way back. Try Egypt. Quite Jewish, actually. You know, people have been doing this since history began."
please tell me he didn't really say that-oh ...damn.he's been living in this bubble for so many years that it's like austin powers where he shows up in the future and still thinks he's a hip cool guy.
or your old crazy uncle that doesn't know that people just don't say things like that anymore .he actually means well but...i'm just gonna cringe now.
Exactly! The 'or more' bit is was makes it - they probably have no idea what that means, 15 years. If they're smart - or if someone is smart - they'll go as far back as the VOODOO sessions.
I agree with you that that statement is utterly cringeworthy in an otherwise very interesting interview. It's wrong on so many levels, and comparable with him calling girls "chicks" and gays "poofters".
I liked the part where it says the most freaky thing about this new album is that Mick and Keith seem to agree about it.
What they say about the new "originals" album (mostly Mick's songs which he had in the can) make me wish that it will never happen.
Meanwhile, I am making a slight U-turn about them making a blues album. The fact that they all loved making it so much, already makes it one of the most worthwhile things they've done in the past 30 years or so.
I'd prefer older stuff a la Tattoo You!
Except for songs like Losing my touch, This place is empty or Infamy. We can do without it.
Losing My Touch & This Place Is Empty are deeply emotional heartfelt great ballads and some of Keith´s best work ever. Infamy is the worst song he ever recorded, it´s even more horrible than Thru And Thru & Thief In The Night. I´d love to hear new songs a la Wanna Hold You & Little T&A.
Nah, I like all of those songs. However, he shouldn't only write slow songs. We need some rockers as well.
Jeroen
Keith already used all his stuff on Crosseyed Heart, how many original and new songs can he write on 1-2 years?
He wrote 12-13 songs on a 10 years frame (2005-2015), the best we can hope is 1-2 new Keith songs and the rest will be "the best" of Mick's solo demos from the last 5 years.
He could write 3 or 4 simple rock songs in a week, if he bothered, I'd say. It's Mick who does most of the shaping anyway, isn't it?
It looks like they want GREAT and DIFFERENT stuff this time, a Bridges To Babylon style but updated 20 years.
After the boring/generic ABB and the blues album, they are looking for a more different stuff than than simple rock songs.
It's quite simple. He can use 'You got it made' (VL sessions) and 'High or Low' (BTB sessions) or some stuff from Licks sessions.
Talk about your favorite band.

Nice cover pic, and interesting read.
In 1968, Jagger told Rolling Stone that the band had always intended to move beyond the blues.
"What's the point in listening to us doing 'I'm a King Bee,'" he said, "when you can hear Slim Harpo do it?"
I've been wondering the same regarding this new album of covers, but still look forward to hearing their interpretations at least a couple times.
"The fact is, Mick and I really don't want to hang together before we go onstage," he says.
"He has a routine of how he gets together for the stage. Me, I have a party."
Back to the nice cover shot: wondering what "The Who's Big Plans" are...new album maybe?

i wouldn't think of buying that stupid ass magazine and i don't care who they have in it.putting the boston marathon bomber on the cover was the last straw for me.
look up the photos of the boston marathon bombing,the woman being pushed in the wheelchair screaming in horror because her legs are blown clean off at the knees or the picture of the 10 year old boy who was waiting for his dad to cross the finish line and was killed by the explosion.
and this little cretin jan wenner puts the murderer on the cover like he's a rockstar-what a pathetic little vermin wenner is.and people are so inundated with sick crap like this they don't even care anymore,no outrage,no consquences, just the glassy eyed masses buying his propaganda.-"it's just a magazine" "it's just an article" ok,fine-but before you buy the issue with mick and keith do me a favor,look up the horror that little jans other cover boy caused and then decide if you support that piece of shit.

Rolling Stone: Is the magazine taken seriously these days?
Its had the 'alleged student rape' story recently which turned out to be fictitious. An expensive mistake.
Then,November edition: cover headline 'How Trump blew it'.

"This past December, the Rolling Stones gathered in Mark Knopfler's British Grove Studios in West London to begin work on a batch of original songs. Jagger is deliberately vague on the nature of those tunes. "I hope it's gonna be a very eclectic album," he says. "I hope some of it's gonna be recognizable Stones and some of it's gonna be some Stones you never heard before, maybe."
"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."
C'mon Stones...give us these fu?!*% new songs!!

he's right though, people have been enslaving other people since 1000s of years ago. the greeks enslaved other greeks, the Egyptians enslaved other egyptions, there were lots of white indentured slaves from England in the US in the 1600s

. oops. deleted post. i was musing & more appropriate for the 'suggestions next studio album' thread.
B&L is a fresh pleasantry thus far. I'm currently still high off their new country blues clip.
(Country Honk) from Ole Ole.
