According to the Guardian, who were quoting producer Don Was, the Rolling Stones will be releasing a new album tomorrow (October 6)!
Apparently it’s an album of Chicago blues songs, recorded in three days with a simple set-up and no studio trickery, to give it that raw feel. Reportedly, Eric Clapton was involved in the sessions…
I looked on Amazon and didn’t see anything about it (though there’s another live record coming in November on pre-order, and a 15CD mono boxed set, for those who want it), so I guess we’ll just have to wait and see what happens tomorrow. Also, I couldn’t find any track info, but it won’t matter since we’ll (apparently) be able to buy the damn thing tomorrow! If that’s the case, I know that I will be first in line…
Thanks to Mike for the heads-up.
u can pre order it on iTunes and they dump a track straight to your computer with the order…

As for a new release tomorrow.
As far as I know all new music comes out on Fridays in North America.
However, the Stones rule.

Here’s what happened:
No one told them new releases are now Fridays. And Keef always thought it was Thursdays, not Tuesdays (the old days), hence tomorrow’s release.

Sounds pants – I was 9 when this lot put out a studio LP with more than 2 songs on it that was worth listening to!

The press release was on Keefs desk and he buried under 20 keys of coke.

That was their first mistake, asking Keef to handle it.

Recorded it in 3 days with no touchups. I bet they literally JUST laid down the tapes.

At this point, if they couldn’t walk into a studio and bang out an album’s worth of blues tracks, they’d have to call it a day.

I don’t think we will see a physical release tomorrow. I think it will be on iTunes with a CD to follow later.

I’m just speculating, but that’s usually how it’s done. U2 and Kanye dropped albums by surprise online and the CD came later. Well with Kanye the CD never came, but you get my drift. Add Beyonce to the list.
