Music Review: The Rolling Stones, “Blue & Lonesome”

Share

The latest project from legendary rock n roll band, The Rolling Stones, takes us back to the past, and to the genre that inspired the band to create music in the first place. Blue & Lonesome is a collection of post-war Chicago Blues covers, featuring a more stripped down version of the high rolling rock band. Mick Jagger’s vocals wail in time with the harmonica while covering Blues legends like Buddy Johnson (“Just Your Fool), Eddie Taylor (“Ride ‘Em On Down), Howlin Wolf (“Commit a Crime”), and Little Johnny Taylor (“Everybody Knows About My Good Thing”) amongst others.
