So, consensus here is that Tattoo You is their best compilation ever and that Dirty Work was their last great studio effort? Or have I misunderstood something?

Don Was was in Australia recently and said ‘not one track is finished yet’ for the new album

Given the amount of nonsense spouted within this bloated thread...you could certainly be excused for reaching that conclusion.

The consensus you talk about involves only one person who chooses (aka trollingly, just for the sake of creating an argument/debate over... nothing that exists, and then idiots like me take the ridiculous bait, partially because it's entertaining, like listening to a flat earther) to ignore reality (no one else in the world thinks that way. Everyone knows TATTOO YOU is a proper album).

I get the feeling that this talk about "we're working on a new album" is a mantra to keep the kettle boiling or to have something to show for in interviews. More so than anything else.

Lol .. really? The Rolling Stones hardly need to talk about a new album just to get an interview yo. In case you missed it .. they are arguably the biggest Rock Stars on the planet. Kina been that way for a while. Not to mention they are pretty vague about it but all that is besides this crazy notion. They sell out stadiums .. they make the cover of magazines and get publicized on major websites .. etc. They do 'not' need to mention blurbs about an album in order to get interviews or for folks to read (/see) or to have something to show in their interviews. Come on now folks.. lets give em SOME credit Lol

I am not going to start this all over again. I have delivered enough arguments that TY is a compilation. Go back a few pages and you´ll find the arguments. Btw it´s not only me, other people do agree that TY isn´t a regular studio album although they would not go so far to call it a compilation (although that´s what it is indeed).
Their last album that I can enjoy from start to finish without skipping any track or having a hard time to go through the album is DIRTY WORK, released in 1986. All albums that were to follow have their (very good-excellent) moments, but are unfortunately loaded with fillers and subpar material surrounding that occasional moments of excellence and former glory.
Note: DIRTY WORK is NOT one of their "great" albums, it is just very good. UNDERCOVER isn´t "great" also, it is - very much like DW - a very good Stones-album.
Their last "great" album would have been probably TATTOO YOU - if it only was a regular studio album which it isn´t. So their last "great" album is... is... hell I don´t know, it must have been Let It Bleed probably, since STICKY FINGER´s core songs seem to be recorded during prior sessions in 1969. EXILE seems also to be filled up with lots of songs recorded in prior sessions, but EXILE isn´t a "great" album anyway.

Which is:
UNDERCOVER is their last great studio effort, regardless of its reception or sale: artistically it is a fantastic body of work and one of their most inventive albums beyond establishing themselves as what they became known for (which albums like BEGGARS through EXILE established).
After that it's just been about fulfilling the contract since nothing past U was anywhere near inventive, with possible exception being BLUE AND LONESOME for getting back to what started it all.

I think, there is nothing anymore to contribute which hasn't been said two, three ir more times already.
Time to close this thread or put it on hold. It is annoying opening the thread in hope of some substancial piece of News just to read nonsense or the same "news" from a doubtful source again and again.
Shut down this thread and open a new one when an actual álbum of Stones Originals comes out!

QED! No real contribution here, although I like your posts in most other threads.
I know that this is a discussion thread. But it just feels there is no Basis to discuss on anymore. It's just speculations. A lower form of conversation when facts are not available anymore.
Start with a new thread, clean table, once we get the albums confirmation from the Stones directly.

Clearly shows that too much theorizing leads to chaos...
...if you take it a bit further, it's probably revealed that the Stones actually never released a "great" album at all (in theory, that is).

As I mentioned earlier it seems like 1968-69 were their most productive years both in terms of quantity and quality. They seem to have done more in these two years than all the others combined.
So it only looks to be fair to name this period the base of their career thereafter. Of course, they were popular in 1967 already with hits like Satisfaction (1965) and Paint it Black (1966).
But most of their staples seems to come from those two years.

In quantity 1977 surely must have been their most productive year. Agree about the quality, though.

It doesn't have to be amazing or anything-- just authentic and honest music from The Rolling Stones in their 70's.

Credit for what? An album that doesn't exist. I stand by what I said. They strive to give the impression that they are still an active band working on new material to hit the shelves within hours.
Of course that is not true but they need this spin - otherwise they would look like a nostalgia act. And that's the last thing Sir Michael would like them to look like. It would be bad for sales.
Why else would someone come up with the name Peter Pan?
