Keith has already said that he was going to do "an overdub for Buddy Guy for a couple of days" on the February edition of Uncut Magazine:



Today this was posted by Tom Hambridge, Buddy's producer:

"Amazing recording session yesterday at The Power Station in NYC. I had the honor of producing and playing on a song I wrote for Buddy Guy’s new album with Mick Jagger. Sir Mick is what I call him....he's a man of wealth and taste."

I'll be curious if Matt Clifford doesn't have a co-writing credit.

When was that Interview done? If this is about a Buddy Guy session in Jan 2018 and Keith says "... I think that's about it until next year, I don't think I got anything on the books until Mick gives me a call and says he wants to do a session" this means two things:

1) ample time to finish the new album (the whole of 2018)
2) no Stones tour in 2018

I rather guess this is from 2017 and "until next year" means until 2018, not 2019?

He was great as an opener at Summerfest in 2015 and his own set later in the fest was also fun

What is the point, do we have a release date??

the last few buddy albums have had guests so it was only a matter of time before the stones appeared on one of his albums

Is that Mick and Keith recording TOGETHER with Buddy Guy?
Surely that is too much to expect.

No. Keith's session was in late November of last year, Mick's was in late January.

Saw him a year ago in Buffalo.

Buddy Guy Proves Blues 'Is Alive and Well' With New Song 'Nine Below Zero'

Blues legend shares Sonny Boy Williamson cover as first single from new album

Nine Below Zero (audio)





Buddy Guy has unveiled his searing, six-minute-long rendition of "Nine Below Zero," the first preview off the blues legend's upcoming album The Blues Is Alive and Well.

"Ain't this a pity? / People you know it's a damn crying shame / Well you know it's nine below zero / And this woman put me down for another man," Guy bellows on the slow-burning track originally penned by Sonny Boy Williamson. "Well I give her all my money / All my love and everything."

However, the highlight of the track is the masterful, minute-long guitar solo that Guy, one of Rolling Stone's 100 Greatest Guitarists, doles out in the middle of "Nine Below Zero."

Guy's The Blues Is Alive and Well, his first album since 2015's Born to Play Guitar, arrives June 15th. The album features guest appearances by Mick Jagger ("You Did the Crime"), Keith Richards and Jeff Beck ("Cognac") and James Bay ("Blue No More").

The Americana Music Association also announced Wednesday that Guy would be the recipient of their Lifetime Achievement Award. Guy will receive the honor at a September 12th ceremony at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium.

"Buddy Guy's incomparable musical craftsmanship has been lovingly shared with us over the years," AMA executive director Jed Hilly said in a statement. "As a community [that] reveres and honors groundbreaking artists and their work, we are humbled to present Buddy with this Lifetime Achievement honor in recognition and thanks for his musical and artistic contribution."

Guy recently appeared on David Letterman's My Next Guest Needs No Introduction to discuss Chicago blues. "We all was from the South, and we came in [because] the Chess Brothers recorded here, and that's when they started calling us 'Chicago,'" he told Letterman. "But if you really want to be honest about it, you should call it the 'Southern blues.'"
