Going by their statements about their creativity and how much new stuff they recorded over the years there should be enough material for a Charlie CD and a Steve CD. I just tend to believe that out of the ton of songs they recorded with Charlie, nothing really got finished (and possibly the same might hold of Steve w.r.t. sessions to come ...).
But on the other hand, there has also been Tattoo You, so in priciple it could be done.

If Charlie has laid down some drums I doubt very much they are gonna use Steve Jordan.

Q: "There was a report that Charlie basically recorded his parts for whatever the next album is. And, I mean, is that true? Did Charlie actually finish recording drums for the next album?"
Keith: "No, it’s not true at all. Yeah. I mean, Charlie Watts was playing along. He did some stuff with Mick, and we already have quite a lot of stuff in the can with Charlie from last year. But Charlie Watts certainly wasn’t in the mind of "I’m going to record things because I’m not going to be here." He isn’t that kind of guy. And he didn’t think like that. Charlie would work if somebody said, "Hey, I’ve got a couple of songs, drop by and play," and that’s the way he was. We do have a lot of stuff of Charlie Watt’s still in the can, because we were halfway through making an album when he died, but you know, goddamn, I loved that man."

Anyone else find it odd that Keith didn't follow the context of the questions, which were apparently asked because of all the previous seven or whatever years they've said they've got 40 songs in the can?

Is Was still involved at this point? I thought I'd read somewhere that he was no longer apart of the recording process.....

I hope so.

I think any new Stones record would have trouble keeping up with the energy of Mick and Dave Grohl's collaboration. (I'm still unclear if you can buy Easy Sleazy, or not, and why/why not?)
The energy level can't possibly be what you would expect from a Rolling Stones record. The drums might be good but the bass still sounds like he's playing along to a completely different song.
I rarely think about a new Stones album at this point. Just want more from the vault, or Blue and Lonesome part deux.

I hope they don't tour in 2023 and spend a year in the studio recording

So, recording a new album a whole year in a studio to sell maybe 1 million copies worldwide at best.
- $10 per album average - $10 million of gross to split in 3-4 plus producer and back up musicians
Gross form 1 show on tour: $9-11 million
That's part of the answer of no new studio album in 17 years.

It sure is..
Pity ARTISTIC CREATIVITY ala McCartney, Dylan, Springsteen, Neil Young and other aged/ageing rock stars doesn’t come into the equation for the world’s most expensive (land-locked) cruise ship band.
We should be grateful they’re touring. But Charlie’s most unfortunate passing should prove to them that Time in NOT on Their Side and that they need to finish and release the songs that Keith himself maintains that because of “we haven’t heard the last of Charlie Watts”.

I think I'm the only one on here who wasn't so enamored with B&L. I've tried. I really have. I listen to it over and over and hope to hear different. They even won a damn Grammy for it. But to me, IMHO, I think it sounds somewhat forced. Not like the old days when they covered the blues. It's more like Oh yeah, look what we can do. I like the way they came full circle with it all, the Blues I mean, but it just doesn't Rock Me Baby. Pun intended.
