It seems like the Stones PR push for the album is beginning. These reports, and their confirmation, look like part of a plan.

Am I the only one who thinks this is not so cool? Until we get to hear it, the talk here is going to be fully delusional and then when it's out we're going to have a big collective shrug

It's a bunch of 80 year-old's having a bit of fun.
What's not to like, it's adorable!

Would be great if they did do a new studio version of the Beatles Come Together!
The Stones butchered it at Desert Trip, but in a studio setting...it could be fantastic.

Macca and Ringo? Please don't. Let Paul sing some backgrounds just for the credits.
What's it gonna be?

The Guardian article is interesting because it it asks from a Stones representative to confirm (or not) the rumours. The source states two things:
Firstly, the headlines news about the Beatles connection:
Macca will play bass on one new song. Ringo is not involved (Ringo was a fake news, that is).
Secondly, and more importantly for those who are eagerly following the development of project:
The famous bass-player joined them when they were in the MIXING STAGE of the album. That is to say: the material for the album was already in the can. (So most likely Macca just over-dubbed his bass on already existing track).
Damn, the latter - coming from a Stones representative - confirms what we have hoped and speculated for some time: the album is about ready to go (depends if there still are some mixing to do, or if it was already finished in LA.). What Mick and Keith did afterwards in Jamaica, Bahamas or wherever it was remains a bit mysterious: some final touches and mixing?
YES!

I wouldn’t be surprised if the Stones were filming a documentary on the making of this album and the guests who were stopping by the studio were only there to watch a session/talk about what the Stones mean to them.
If the Beatles can have a 3-part, 2 hour each episode documentary on what ended up being their last album (release wise), then why can’t The Rolling Stones?

Ringo is not involved on the song that Macca plays on. Given how many rumors are flying about these possible collab's, perhaps he played on an entirely different track all by himself!

A good idea. But I would like it to be an honest documentation of what the hell has happened along the years, starting from the 2015 sessions... There is a story there: all those ups and downs, and whatever turns... "what happened to that album, Ron?". Maybe it will turn out to be a comedy... But with a happy end (I hope)!

I hope it is true. It would be a fascinating collaboration. It could really reinvigorate the fans on a level we have never seen.
