SO, the 'new album thread' has morphed into a discussion about the possibilities of a deluxe Bridges to Babylon? We can't look forward, seemingly, so backwards will have to do!

Just keeping up with The Stones. They, after all, have spent near on two decades looking backwards themselves.

Deluxe re-issues are the 'new' new albums...EVERYONE IS DOING IT!

Backwards is the new forward, no?

Judging from what we heard over the years, the album will contain outtakes from studio sessions from more than 30 years.

So yeah, going backwards means going forward!

Look to the past to find the future!

Outstanding philosophy!

That's a Sören kierkegaard quote: "“Life can only be understood by looking backward; but it must be lived looking forward” — Soren Kierkegaard (1813–1855).

Ah, blimey darn thieves. Thief In The Night.

Good call Stoneage.

We have to something while waiting for the new / final album.

I would say Arthur gives better advice to the people on here

„The safest way of not being very miserable is not to expect to be very happy.“

Hmm.. Time to get philosophical here. Yeah, that theme is not that much covered here yet (many has), so why not. Go on...

You beat Irix to it!

As the end of summer is in sight, so may (if the rumors posted here hold to be true) be the long time of waiting for this mysterious new album. As the Stones camp is in summerly silence just imagine what there might be going on as we continue to speculate. Vinyl being pressed, artwork being developed, TV interviews chosen and a Rolling Stone Cover Story in preparation..? Exciting to
Times in the summer of 2023..

To be honest, I think those are the kinds of activities that take place in the two months between the announcement and release. If it seems like nothing’s happening right now, that’s probably because there’s nothing happening.

703 pages and no philosophy, what's up with that?

But at least the 18th birthday of ABB is getting closer and closer. Just a couple of weeks to go, right? That's gonna be one hell of a party for some of us here.

Isn't there going to be an 18th anniversary outtakes edition (a/k/a new album)?

Hoping so!

Okay, maybe this is the real deal.

Love the traditional, nostalgic, London-centric title

"The overriding theme of the album is based on relationships, with ongoing references of broken glass and harsh elements"


Sounds like a conceptual album from Pink Floyd/Roger Waters.

seems like the end of this beloved thread is in sight…
who's gonna give us shelter, cure our broken hearts and satisfies us?

Time to close this thread?

There is a new one called HACKNEY DIAMONDS, you know, a title of a new Stones album.
