What do you get when you allow a superfan to produce your band’s newest album? Hackney Diamonds.
Andrew Watt, who helmed the Rolling Stones’ first album of original music in 18 years, wants it known that, first and foremost, he is a Stones fan, with an admittedly unhealthy obsession at that. Sure, he’s won the Grammy for Producer of the Year, as well as Grammys for albums he produced or co-produced for Ozzy Osbourne and Dua Lipa. And yeah, his credits include records by pop, hip-hop, and rock hitmakers: Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus, Post Malone, Future, Eddie Vedder, Iggy Pop, and Elton John, among them. But his biggest heroes have always been Mick Jagger and Keith Richards.

Several links to songs you have not yet heard.
I think at this point in their careers the Rolling Stones could release an album of Gregorian Chants and win a Grammy.
Doesn’t always work out that way.
See Barbra Streisand’s ‘Butterfly’...............
But how many Gregorian chants can you do with only 3 chords?
Is this the one that Paul McCartney will be playing on?
Yes, there’s a link at the bottom of the article so you can hear that crazy fuzz bass on the song Bite My Head Off.
It’s a punk rocker lol
“ But how many Gregorian chants can you do with only 3 chords”
Three? Aren’t most Gregorian chants just one long chord? Seems you’d be a virtuoso if you knew all three chords.
That’s, like, awesome.
“That’s, like, awesome.”
What is?
I love “Sweet Sounds of Heaven” from the album. Mick sound great.
The article. I was mocking the kid producer who used “like” in every other sentence. I listened to the album earlier today. Not a fan.
The Stones have been about getting rich since Satisfaction.
oh yeah
i don’t dislike the new material, but it is NOT the Stones sound... to me anyway
over processed maybe
