There's something personal in all this, I fear. Just how tall are you, Ian?

Come on Ian, you almost sound like a snitch - like when the teacher leaves the classroom for a few minutes and everyone gets up to some harmless mischief.
When the teacher returns, there's always someone who snitches on everyone else...usually it's the teachers pet.
But anyhow, let us know when there's any important updates Ian...

Jack Nicholson is 5' 10" and in this 1985 photo they look about even:
Ringo is 5' 6" so you can see Charlie is a couple inches taller:
I dunno...appears that Jack is looking down at Keith, and Keith's shabby hair makes it hard to judge.
As for Ringo, his head is tilted sideways, and he's standing further back so not a fair comparison perspective wise.

Rolling Stone, like the other sites reporting this "news" overlooked the fact that those comments were made in April - or earlier.

Same here Ian.
Now the thread has been taken off the sticky list...not a good sign as far as any new album is concerned.
The only hope to keep this thread alive is to hopefully have more inside sources bring us some news, while the rest of us can continue to speculate.

The real laugh of the matter is folks are reporting it as if they are 'just beginning' or ready to "start" recording an album.
They started this thing in December of 2015. Blue and Lonesome was an early by product of the sessions .. It was reported they were thinking about releasing the album in conjunction with the Blues covers album .. there was speculation / it was reported they were going to try and mix the material up on the release.. Nobody knew?
They decided to make it an all blues album and release it in time / around Christmas.
So even way back then they had material / new stuff. Here we are a year and a half after they began this trek and people / media .. and even they are acting as if this is just starting right now??
Keith mentions they are trying to see which direction to take it. So after like a year and a half they are still trying to find the general direction of the album? ....
It is a major mystery as to ....what they had.. what they kept.. whether they started over or not ... etc. etc. etc.

People can say what they want (as we all do), but I still think Mick's solo release might have thrown a wrench in to the entire process.
Mick planning/recording/releasing a solo release was never part of the originla plan when they went in the studio back in '15, and now it's become the headline news. Something curious must have happened, and we know they hit the wall at some point. Ronnie mentioned starting from scratch months ago (or was it a year ago?). I believe Charlie mentioned the same at the awards ceremony. We then see tidbits of info. of Keith in the studio. Yet another pic showed Mick with a hotshot young producer from India. And then a pic of Keith with a young hotshot jazz musician. Ultimately, Universal execs said that whatever is there of the supposed new album is "uneven" and "lacks focus", and maybe that's why Mick has decided to go his own way temporarily...the universal execs weren't completely happy with the so-called new Stones album.
The timeline above might be off a bit here and there, but that's really the gist of it in a nutshell. Not to mention the tour about to start, and all the commotion surrounding the Fonda release. As someone else mentioned, it would be surprising if after all this quagmire there is a new studio album at all. Best hope at this point is another solo album (or single) from Keith to counter the solo single from Mick.
Then maybe if we're lucky....a new Stones album in 2019?
Might have to change thread title again!!!
