Keith Richards has said that The Rolling Stones were prompted to make their new album, ‘Hackney Diamonds’, partly because of drummer Charlie Watts‘ death.Watts passed away from throat cancer in August 2021, at the age of 80. However, he still plays on two songs from the record, ‘Mess It Up’ and ‘Live By The Sword’.Richards has pinpointed that in a new interview as one of the things that compelled him and Mick Jagger to get back into the studio.

Eric Cantona has suggested that The Rolling Stones should support him at one of his live shows following the launch of his music career.The former Manchester United icon released his debut, four-track EP ‘I’ll Make My Own Heaven’ today (October 20) via Decca.Cantona announced that he had set his sights on a musical venture back in May, when he teased the single ‘The Friends We Lost’ ahead of sharing the song in full the following month.The ex-professional footballer has since described his new life as an artist as the next best thing from being on the pitch. “If you have a dream it should be a big dream,” he explained.“I’ve done sport, cinema, but I think after sport the closest thing is singing live on stage.”During a new interview with BBC News, Cantona was asked which artists he would consider opening for as a support act, with the outlet noting that he is “just starting out”. He responded: “I do not understand what you mean.”The interviewer then attempted to “explain musical hierarchy” to Cantona.“No,” he said.

Naman Ramachandran Mick Jagger is basking in the acclaim for the new Rolling Stones album “Hackney Diamonds,” the band’s first album of new material since 2005’s “A Bigger Bang.” Reviewing the album for Variety, Jem Aswad said it “sounds classic without feeling dated,” adding “if there’s a better way to end the Rolling Stones’ 60-plus-year recording career, it’s hard to imagine what it could be.” “I’ve got really good reactions from people that seem to be genuine,” Jagger told The Guardian. In a freewheeling interview with the British newspaper, Jagger, 80, weighed in on mortality, missing late drummer Charlie Watts and contemporary U.S. politics.

Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music News arrived gradually of the Rolling Stones’ special celebration in New York of their new album, “Hackney Diamonds.” First it was a “Rolling Stones event on the evening of Oct. 19,” then it was an album-release party, and then rumors spread that they were going to perform “a couple of songs, but with the boys, you never know” (yes, the person quoted actually called them “the boys”).

The Rolling Stones put out an album of new material — 2005’s “A Bigger Bang” — it was all the way back in the pre-Taylor Swift era.In the interim, the pop superstar has dropped 10 studio LPs — and rocked the music world the way the Stones once did in the 1960s and ’70s — while the legendary British band has released exactly one: 2016’s “Blue & Lonesome,” a collection of blues covers.Although the Stones continued to tour — and play the hits that everybody comes to hear — it certainly seemed as if they had given up on making original music and would ride those classics into the inevitable sunset.But perhaps jolted by the death of founding drummer Charlie Watts in 2021, the Stones are back with — dare I say it — a bang on “Hackney Diamonds,” out on Friday.With the band enlisting Grammy-winning producer Andrew Watt — a top studio gun for everyone from Miley Cyrus and Dua Lipa to Justin Bieber and Post Malone — you might be worried that Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood are making one last desperate attempt at the pop charts.Thankfully, that’s not the case. (And to his credit, Watt, 32, has some rock bonafides, too, having also produced Ozzy Osbourne, Iggy Pop and Pearl Jam’s Eddie Vedder.)“Hackney Diamonds” — which takes its title from the Hackney district in East London — feels like classic Stones, even if it’s not up to the gems of yesteryear.

Jon Stewart is leaving late-night, again.

Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music To put the rather overheated hype around the new Rolling Stones album in superfan-quibbling terms, “Hackney Diamonds” is not their best work since “Some Girls,” released some 45 years ago — but it is their best since “Tattoo You,” which is just three years younger. That the Stones have reached such a peak while grappling with what an octogenarian rock band should sound like — one that recently lost their drummer of nearly 60 years, no less — is perhaps the most impressive feat of all.
