I Love it ! I vote for you for Art Director.
So far you've voted for me to be Producer and now Art Director.
I now nominate myself for songwriter, guitar player, and maybe some percussion.
This album would have been finished years ago - I want your vote! lol
Yeah, go ahead and do it! They're not getting it done anyway. Ian will certainly agree to be your recording engineer!

For the amount of blood, sweat, and tears we've put in to this thread (lol page 421), we could have had FIVE Stones albums by now,
along with a couple of solo releases by both Keith and Mick...maybe even some spare time to help Chuck L. craft some tunes.

Chuck Berry alone is as good as a band
Yes but he only ever had to agree with himself

You have a point here, of course. But Chuck may have had disputes with himself as well, considering that it took him 38 years to release the follow-up album to Rock It.

In case this refers to my post above: rather a bitter remark.

No worries, mate. I guess the sarcasm escaped me because I didn't get the hints ... LOL
The 30 basic tracks - if 30 is the new number - might well be the first result of the Stones' recent puzzle-ing efforts. We started out with 40 Mick demos and 3 dynamite Keith riffs, then came "something beautiful that had not existed before" that Mick and Keith created one afternoon in a studio a while back (acc.to keith, quote perhaps not totally verbatim), and maybe more post-2015 stuff I'm forgetting at the moment. So, at any rate more than 40 somethings. If these 40+ somethings boiled down now to 30 basic somethings, they either discarded a few somethings or found some pieces fitting together and thereby reduced the number of isolated items. Give them another few years and we might be down to 20!

It's a matter of taste. "Hit The Wall" is such a surprise return to top form that I think it's waaay better, musically, than "Up Against The Wall."
And you can't beat the lyrics of "Hit The Wall."

The Up Against The Wall from the YT clip might give us an idea what some (several?) the 30/40/umpty basic tracks are like: riffs or licks that need a context (a/k/a [pieces of a] puzzle).
Although the phrase can also be used in different contexts, I can't help being reminded of The Wall:

I don't think Keith spends winters in Connecticut, and I don't blame him one bit...Quote

Anyone know where Keith is? In the T&C? Mick is on Mustique.
A lot getting done.
Keith is in CT. Patti was in NYC the other day and last week she posted a picture of the two of them at a restaurant in CT.Quote

Although it WAS 70 degrees here in CT on Sunday, which was beyond absurd. I even went hiking and there were dozens of other people out and about in springtime clothing. The next day it was back in the 30s.

I'd say 2020 Man would be a nice new song title. At least it would mean they'd have to release it this year.
