TimeIsNo. Mick misspoke when he said December. He probably meant (but forgets, old age ) it started in November - actually Keith was in there in October. The "reset" started with the Jamaica sessions in February 2022. Just demo-ing new songs: Mick, Keith, Steve, Matt.Quote

wiped each others work when they took turns in the studio, driving Kimsey crazy !
- that timeline is getting murkier with each interview...didn't they "reset" in Jamaica in December and get together with Watt in January in L.A. and knock out 23 tunes ? ;-)
Over the summer they figured they needed to actually "reset" with a new producer, got Andrew. After the tour in late September they went in Electric Lady - that's when Andy Watt arrived and when the sessions started. October saw them transitioning from NYC to L.A. after a short break, but Mick didn't arrive until early November. December 9 is the approximate date the sessions ended in L.A. (This was fairly well documented over the pages on IORR.)
The overdub sessions were held in Nassau in January. But NO, the sessions did not "start" in December. That is becoming, unfortunately, an urban myth that because of one Mick misspoken or badly articulated bit is becoming internet fact (see the unfortunate Wiki article).
To summarize: the 23 tunes were done from between late September/early October to January, at the latest early November to January. Minus the final mixing in February.
Unfortunately, I don't know that I would assume that. Mick brought in his demos or song ideas in Jamaica, such as Angry, as we now know. And Keith is quoted that when they made the decision to set a deadline, he said to Mick "If you think you have enough material that you want to sing, then I’m right there behind you", which implies Mick already had his demos, or ideas about songs, and that that was the main source. Let's still hope from that starting point that Keith brought his input to those ideas, which I would guess would be the case to varying degrees depending on the track.Quote

It seems they broke out of the adding to Mick's demos way of working! Thankfully as you describe it, it sounds pretty collaborative.

I don't wanna spoil the party, but isn't copying an article from Rolling Stones or the NYT a copyright infringement too?
Copying a link is ok, but copying the whole content of an article and pasting it here is a violation too - imho.
Cheerio

That's gotta be the best Mick-interview in almost 30 years!
Another mistake by Mick here. Serban was in Virginia (Beach), not NC. We have the info from the credits on Angry.Quote

- Mick mixed it remotely (from the Caribbean) with Watt in LA and the mixer in NC, Keith not involved apparently

Thank you for all of this! So those 23 were not from any previous sessions or part of the 100 tracks written about that Watt waa given to listen to. Well I guess at least 2 of the 23 were done earlier since Charlie drums on them.
