the live feedback sounds like the ultimate short circuit for a new rolling stones record. it may well be true for the seventies up until ty (record/live to promote it pattern) maybe not so much for their songwriting beginnings. Did they plan to play that many songs from aftermath live? it was another era, the hit singles era still.
but now? in 2022 if we have to count on their need to a live feedback from the audience to put out a new record... we're certainly done, up until 2027 at the least
they're the same band that played barely 3 songs from an acclaimed and fairly successfull blues covers album..
they are simply old, bless 'em

I'm also to lazy to look it up, but I suggest that Losing My Touch could just as well have been Jagger/Richards/Wood as Jagger/Richards

Don't know why, but Zager and Evans popped up in my brain, and to cop on their number 1 song, "In the year 2525, for all those Stones fans still alive, hope still beats in their chest that a new album will arrive, in the year 2535."

Keith could indeed write loads of similar songs... on a weekly basis no doubt ...but therein is perhaps the nub of the problem.
Mick could write plenty of songs too ...the issue is probably in agreeing which, if any, of the songs they're writing today belong on a Rolling Stones album !

There is more to it than writing a song, nowdays they aren't distilled to the degree they used to as a band working together. Add to that impromptu jams that result in grooves and hooks that create unplanned songs. Without that, which I suspect Keith was a driving force in, the songs don't reach the same potential.

Yep. Back to "my cards are on the table", please (or why not try something new?)

"My cards are on the table" is just the more adult, elobarate and poetic form of "baby, baby, baby... honey, honey, honey".
