O.k. Rick Rubin...... I'm throwing this out for the sinple fact that he produced Johnny Cash's last 5 albums, and he did produce Mick's 3rd solo album, which is his best, also he did Tom Petty's wallflower's , so what might a new Stone's album sound like if he were at the helm's? I think it would be interesting and I do think it is high time to get EVERYBODY out of the studio!! Bye Bye Chuck!! Bye back up singer's, just the boy's! anybody want to wiegh in on this it is just an idea to start conversation

"Well my heavy throbbers itchin' just to lay a solid rhythm down"

And now for something completely different...

There's not going to be another album. But Rick Rubin would have been perfect, if 'Wandering Spirit' didn't permanently sour him on working with them.

I think there will be one more album! with in the next 3 yrs

Me & Sugar Cane.....we know what they need....

I think Phil Spector has some legal bills, so he'll need some work

What?

there is no one else i can think of

"Well my heavy throbbers itchin' just to lay a solid rhythm down"

I really think there will be another album. Yes, probably within the next 3-4 years.

.... way sooner than that ill bet........

The results that everyone expects Rick Rubin to produce out of the Stones is basically what "A Bigger Bang" was: back to the basics...just the Stones; straightforward rock songs written by Mick and Keith TOGETHER; no overproduced songs.

My opinion is that Rick Rubin would've drained these same songs out of them. The only difference if Rick Rubin was behind ABB that he would've made it a tighter album and gotten rid of all the clunkers like "This Place Is Empty" "Rain Fall Down" "Biggest Mistake" and "Neocon." What would be left would be some strong songs and a tight album.

Maybe I can't give the boys credit but I feel ABB was almost pushing their creative juices to the edge already. Rick Rubin could probably squeeze a couple more original songs out of them but ABB might be the best we're gonna get. Which is fine by me, IMHO.

good post justin

"Well my heavy throbbers itchin' just to lay a solid rhythm down"

Justin,

I respectfully disagree with your position that the four songs you mentioned are "clunkers."

neocon is a clunker..that cannot will not be denied, i hope?

rubin would be cool but ain't going to happen

how about daniel lanois? or lanois with eno (the big u2 fans on this site should love that)

jack frost? he's been pretty good on dylan's last two

jack white? he was great on loretta lynn

- Possibly.. ?

Jack White over Rick Rubin, but out of the two it's pretty close.
About Sweet Neocon: Not a bad song at all. The music is very good, but the lyrics aren't although I agree with them. Still the only "clunkers" on ABB is LMDS and BM.

Keith, Mick and Don Was, probably.

Rick Rubin with Glyn and Andy Johns,+ Mick Taylor and Bill Wyman.
