The Rolling Stones have revealed the full track list of Hackney Diamonds, their first studio album of new material in nearly 20 years.
Last week The Stones launched the album, which is released on 20 October, at a globally live streamed event from Hackney Empire in East London. The live stream was followed by the premiere of the video for Angry starring actress Sydney Sweeney.
Late drummer Charlie Watts features on two tracks on the album, Mess It Up and Live By The Sword, which also features bass from 86-year-old Bill Wyman, who left the band in 1993.
Sweet Sounds Of Heaven' featuring vocals from Lady Gaga and keys and piano from Stevie Wonder, Bite My Head Off features bass from Paul McCartney, and Elton John plays piano on Get Close and Live By The Sword.
Hackney Diamonds track list: Angry, Get Close, Depending On You, Bite My Head Off, Whole Wide World, Dreamy Skies, Mess It Up, Live By The Sword, Driving Me Too Hard, Tell Me Straight, Sweet Sounds Of Heaven, Rolling Stone Blues.
The 12-track album was recorded in various locations around the world, including Henson Recording Studios, Los Angeles; Metropolis Studios, London; Sanctuary Studios, Nassau, Bahamas; Electric Lady Studios, New York; and The Hit Factory/Germano Studios, also in New York.
Hackney Diamonds is the band's first studio set of new material since 2005's A Bigger Bang. Since then, the Stones have smashed box office records on a series of global sellout tours, including Croke Park in 2018, and released 2016's Grammy Award winning Blue & Lonesome, which featured their brilliant versions of many of the blues tracks that helped shape their sound.
Hackney Diamonds marks The Stones (Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Ronnie Wood) first album produced by producer and musician Andrew Watt.
