Too old to quit, Stones to release new album December 2

The Rolling Stones will put out their first record in over a decade on December 2, 2016 with the release of the album Blue & Lonesome. The 12 tracks, recorded in three days at London’s British Grove Studios, all cover songs by classic bluesmen, including Howlin’ Wolf (“Commit a Crime”), Little Walter (“I Gotta Go”) and Jimmy Reed (“Little Rain”). Eric Clapton guests on the group’s cover of Little Johnny Taylor’s “Everybody Knows About My Good Thing” and Otis Rush’s “I Can’t Quit You Baby.” The album doubles as a nod to the band’s formative years, when the band would play covers by their favorite blues artists.
