I think the song rips and is fun and unpretentious and will age very well. They’re not playing it safe they threw down a raucous little number. Let’s enjoy it.

Is there going to be a Japanese release with an extra song on the B side ?

This has been an excellent 10 days, starting with the April Fool's Day joke possibilities, watching all of the guessing and detective work, and trying to sus out the meanings.
I was 270 miles away from the closest record store that was identified for USA, so I knew I would not get the vinyl. I was happy for you'all's info on the MP3 on RocksOff, and have been playing it for hours on repeat. It is GREAT!! I have always wanted more harmonica from Mick!

At this point in their lives, we are just lucky that they still want to do this and that they are still able to. That will not always be the case.

Let's enjoy what brought us here, while we can.

Back to lurking....

It sounds great! Bluesy and heavy with a cool no-click-track swagger on the edge of collapsing at any time they demonstrate their love for live rootsy music. I like it. Not near their best songs but more fun than everything on previous album Hackney Diamonds.

It sounds like it was recorded during the "Zydeco Sont Pas Sales" sessions.

Don't think this has been linked here yet.

"From what I understand, all three Stones are in London right now. Is it a coincidence? I don't think so, I think there's a reason why they're all gathered in one spot. And I think it's going to be revealed very soon."

A great song (for me), the harp, the raw sound, the riff... It's certainly no PIB, Gimme Shelter, or JJF, but better than many other new songs.

Now (with the lyrics), the references on the Cockroaches website to the ballet dancer or the Natchez Mississippi postcard make sense; it's all contained within the lyrics.

The marketing was insane. Clearly, it's not something everyone can participate in (traveling miles, getting lucky to buy the single etc.), but from simply distributing the album through various internet channels, to the coordinate search, to the selection of specific record stores (it's remarkable that no large chains like Virgin Megastores, Media Markt, Saturn, Spotify and other streaming plattforms etc., were included, but rather small vinyl shops)—I found it all very well done.

Of course, not everyone can get lucky with their purchase, and it's also understandable that there was abuse, like those crazy eBay offers for several hundred euros/dollars.


The marketing was insane. But otherwise, for me (as just an observer) it was a very exciting story and I'm looking forward to the new album - I'll probably like "Rough And Twisted" better than the first real single with video in rock-pop style.

Absolutely disappointed with this marketing campaign. I’ve been a Rolling Stones fan for 40 years and I still can’t listen to the single. A complete disaster."

If the rest of the album is in this style, it would be great. The single goes a little in direction of "Blue & Lonesome".

Yes, we clearly haven't reached the end of this campaign yet. I wonder what this could be...

Does your turntable have a USB output? If so, can you record it in stereo?

If true, then given that they sold these worldwide, they'd have to announce it in advance in order to give people time to book flights etc.
